Saw my mom and my sisters on Saturday.
Walked in the door and the first comment was: "you're so skinny"
I haven't bunged a pound in over a year.
My 16 year old niece said the same thing.
Either everyone thinks I was this HUGE beast all my life, or they just have an image of me being fat, or we're just conditioned to comment on each other's weight.
I looked at my brother-in-law - who gave me a quizzical look when I scowled at the comment.
"I just wish that ONCE weight would not be mentioned within the first 30 seconds of a greeting"
BTW: When I had my horrid bout of acid reflux last week - I called the doctor and she asked if I was overweight (ruling out heart issues - since acid relux feels like a heart attack -- longer story that I will get into later) - I said I'm 5'6" and weigh 135. "Oh you're totally fine then" was her comment.

People are freaks about weight. That being said, you look FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC, so whatever.
Oh, and Mark is home. He's doing great! Thanks so much for your call, it's nice to know I have so many awesome people watching out for us!
