My charming teenage daughter joined me at the gym and was asking me

So, I appreciated the compliment but wasn't going to show weakness. I was like

She noticed the weight loss and told me I looked good.

I love going to the gym with her.

    I kicked my teenaged son's butt in weight lifting when I took him with me. That's an NSV.

    A couple of years ago when I began getting fit, my 15 year old (at that time) daughter said, " I don't really know how to ask this so I'm just gonna come out with it. Does this mean you are going to lose your man boobs? Cause it's really embarrasing in the summer when you are working in the yard without a shirt and my friends come over." lol

    Out of the mouths of babes.........

    Awesome NSV and I love the way you expressed it :laugh: Congratulations! It's even more satisfying because you got a teenager to stop focusing on being cool for a moment, acknowledge your hard work and actually compliment you. Bonus! Consider yourself The Master.

    Thanks all, now if I can get her to feel comfortable and lift. Then I'll be a master.
    I'll likely have to leave that to the boyfriend.

    LOL ... my soon-to-be teenager basically hinted that I was still fat. I picked him up and threw him across the family room onto the couch. In front of his friends.

    Ha! This reminds me of a conversation I had recently with my 5-year-old daughter.

    Her: That man has no shirt! I see his boobies!
    Me: Boys don't have boobies, sweetheart.
    Her: (Pauses to think) Some boys have boobies, Mama. Muscley guys like that man. They're called "muscle boobies."

    Congrats on your muscle boobies and also on the compliment from your little girl. :)
