OHHH I love em. Kids have no cares or worries and tell you exactly what is on their mind. What is nice is they see me train and they know I love it. In fact, they usually try to train with me.
Has your kid ever said something like this to you? or a Neice or a STRANGER?
Hearing something like this is probably worse than seeing a picture of yourself or seing the dreaded mirror. I take my childs honesty as a challenge so that one day he might say spontaneously " Daddy your really RIPPED!"

Well, I hope he'll know contractions by now.  (Your vs. You're.)  :-)

My six year old saw someone walking down the street the other day and said, "mommy, she looks just like you."  She was a dumpy 50 year old with frosted grey hair.  I still don't know what he meant by that.   Maybe she strode like I did?  Maybe it's a comment on my fashion sense (or lack thereof)?  I just know that I'm considerably more slender.  Harumph.

My kids have said things like "Mom, you're really squishy." or "Mom, you're fat" or "Mom, I like to lean against you 'cause you're soft and Daddy is really hard."


Then, last year my son came home from kindergarten and he was absolutely beaming. He told me I was so special because I was the OLDEST Mom of his class. What kind of project is that? - ranking Mom's by age!

(Did I get all my contractions right? I thought she was talking about giving birth!)

Hmm, well, I've gotten that from my son, but the best one came just the other day. I was heading off on a bike ride and I got, "Working out has made you very confident, I can't believe you're wearing pink bike shorts, Dad"

Well, I don't know much about my confidence, but I'm pretty sure it's time to go replace those old faded RED bike shorts I've got and get me a few new BLACK ones, that if they fade will still look good.

Before I started training, my 4 year old daughter said to me, "Daddy you have boobies like Mommy's"

Needless to say that was the last straw...Where are my running shoes?

One time, I had my then 3-year-old son in the shopping cart while we were in the checkout line behind an extremely obese man. He said, (rather loudly) "Mom! Look at that man! He must have kept eating and eating and eating and eating...." I just backed out of the line and went down an aisle and disappeared into the store until that poor man was gone. I felt so badly!

When our daughter [4 at the time] told my wife, "Mum, you're really pretty," there was just enough of a pause for Mum to allow herself a beaming smile.
Then she continued, "If only you were a bit thinner."

Yes, kids have a way with that dramatic pause don't they? My daughter (7 yrs old) says I love you the way you are. I have a huge smile and before I can say thank you she says, " what would I do if I didn't have an extra pillow around". I laughed out loud!

My wife is pregnant with our second child, my son is 2, and I knew I had to start working out when my son points to my stomache and say "Baby, Baby"

I got a compliment from our Jack the other day
he said,
"You don't look pregnant now."
Praise indeed,
"But you're still fat."

Our family was walking in the airport and my youngest daughter says very outloud "Mommy that guy's really fat!" as we are walking toward the man. Then my youngest daughter says as we are right next to him "Mommy you're hurting my hand, why are you sqeezing it so hard?"

I'm a divorced dad and I usually keep my daughter on the weekends. Well, before I remarried I had a afro-american roommate for a while. One Saturday morning my daughter and I were in the living room and my roommate came downstairs came down from his room without a shirt and wearing only shorts. My daughter looked at him and said, "How come you're all brown?" We both just laughed.

I don't have kids of my own, but I coach at a junior high so that's like having hundreds of them. One day last year, one of my basketball players looked at me and said: "Coach Lee, untuck your shirt. It makes you look less big."

I worked out with them that day.

My 4 year old niece did the exact thing... except to my father (her grandfather). She walked up and said "Grandpa, do you have a baby inside you?" I had a hard time laughing, but he really got offended.
