Possibilities: Usually when another person thinks you are losing weight, it is because it appears that way to them. If you haven't been losing weight but appear slimmer it could be because you are wearing clothing that is flattering to the figure, or you could be wearing dark clothing which can sometimes give the illusion of being slender or if you exercise, you may have lost fat & gained muscle.
