    Never have I ever heard this before but within the last 2 weeks I have been called a "tall drink of water" by 3 different people. Apparently it is a compliment.

    The best ones:

    From my daughter: I want to be you when I grow up. (Followed by tearful mumbling about how much she loves me.)

    From other daughter: I love your belly. (My belly is quite flabby, so I'm glad someone likes it.)

    From church member: I thought you were a celebrity when you were walking up, then as you got closer I recognized you.

    From the husband: "Did you see that chick that was with [ male superstar]? Well, she looked just like you." I googled her, she's a model. I felt like I'd won a small lottery prize.

    And rounding out the list: You have kids? When I saw you I thought you were one of the teenagers?!

    I get the first four, but the last one I was like, whaaaat?

    To understand why all this is such a big deal - I used be asked if I was my kids' grandma! And I really haven't lost that much weight and have a ways to go (my ticker is set for my mini goal). I feel like a caterpillar coming out of the chrysalis and seeing they are brand new!
