my daughter nags me about losing weight

Hello, I will say that now days children do care so much about us that they will do that now. I will say that my children are young that they have not gave me the experience of this yet, but I will say that they do remind me everyday about watching what I eat. For me a lot of it is watching The Biggest Loser and seeing that they have people on the show that allowed their children do what they do. So that gave me the courage to do something about it. I for one do not want my children following my steps and I don't want to lose my own life due to being over weight. So I had started watching what I ate and have started walking a lot more and it has been about 6 months since then and I have dropped about 25 pounds and lost 2 pants sizes. That alone makes me feel good so I am going to keep continuing what I am doing. I figure that if I do this now while my children are 1 and 3 years of age then by the time they get older they will not be like I was. I am glad that now days children care about their parents like that. Well I hope that your daughters notes gives you courage to do what you need and want to do.

I know the feeling! My friends always tease me for I have gained some weight. They always make some advices on how to lose weight or I have to do some sports or diet. Hahaha. It's sometimes annoying to hear that they were so concerned about it. I know they care about me but.... hahaha you know. There is nothing I can do about it but, to listen to them.

I am not yet a mother so let me share to you my point of view as a daughter. My mother used to weight so much that she has difficulty moving herself. As a daughter, my mom is very important to me and so to avoid losing her early because of high blood pressure or any abnormalities that may be brought by being obese, I encouraged her to trim down some pounds but not to the point of depriving herself some foods. We are the master of ourselves. Some people may say we are skinny and some may say we are fat but what matters most is if we are happy with ourselves. I encouraged my mom to trim down excess fats because I know she is not happy with herself anymore. Maybe, your daughter is worried about you because she can see signs already that you are not comfortable in your own weight. Try to analyze your feelings and your physique. It is only you who can say if you need to loose some pounds or you are just in the right shape.

I don't have any kids but I do the same with my Mom. Well, not to the extent that I leave notes here and there but I try to remind her as best as I can. My Mom is slightly heavy, not too much, but she has a bone problem that could get worse if she can't carry her own weight. Yes, just as parents are concerned about their child's well being, of course, children are too, about their parents'. Your daughter sounds sweet.
