    "You'd be pretty if you weren't so flat chested." Coming from one of my cousins, a D cup, who weights 100 lbs more than me.

    Me back: "Lol at least I'm not fat."

    God made Harriet so he could see how far skin can stretch. A coworker who yelled this out in front of the whole office when I weighed 275.

    where to start....

    "You would be really pretty if you weren't so fat" -- from a total stranger

    "Damn.... you juicy" -- pretty sure, last time I checked, I was neither a steak nor a starburst candy... but thanks??

    "Hey sexy! I like 'em big!" -- Good for you... Go eff off.

    "Don't cut your hair. I won't find you attractive anymore." Yeah... cuz my goal in life is making sure that YOU find me attractive... JERK

    And lastly, not a compliment but just proof that people no longer know how to act out in public....

    "Your face don't look right" -- a customer at my job

    "wow. you've lost 60lbs? I didn't think you lost that much...huh...." (they later clarified that they didn't think I looked like I needed to lose that much to begin with but, at the time, this was horribly stated...)

    Off topic, just scrolling through the comments & noticed you had lost 104 lbs.
    Congrats!! That's so awesome.
    That makes me feel really encouraged.

    Some of the worst compliments I've gotten:

    "Hey, you've lost some weight. Before you were really fat, but now you're just sort of fat."
    "You look good chubby!"
    "You're going about this weight loss thing the wrong way. Now you have no butt or hips anymore and have a V-shaped body. You look like a man now."
    "You looked so much better 15 pounds ago. Your face was nice and full then." (Referring to 15 pounds heavier. And 15 pounds ago I was borderline overweight.)

    And finally, the VERY worst one that I received fairly recently:

    "Oh my goodness, how've you been? It's been so long! You look a little different though, I can't pinpoint exactly what it is. Ah! I know! You look a lot older, that's it!" (The last time this person saw me was 4 years ago when I was 50+ pounds heavier.) :grumble:

    "You'd be so beautiful if you'd only lose weight!" 0.0 really though? You'd be pretty if you didn't have an opinion.
    I get that 'compliment' all of the time

    "You have a pretty face for a big girl..." or even worse, the uninspiring "well, you have a great personality" from a guy who was comparing me to the type of girls he usually goes for, which were stick thin party girls. Yeah, thanks buddy. Just what makes a girl's eyes want to sparkle. :grumble:

    Another one I wasn't thrilled about was from my mom after a lost a little weight a few years ago: "You are starting to look really good! I was worried about you there for awhile. You were getting almost as big as (my cousin who was also overweight at the time)...scary." Yes, she actually said that to me! :noway: I ended up gaining that weight back that year and feeling horrible the next time I went back home for a visit. There wasn't a peep about how I looked that time around, and all I could think about was how they were all thinking about how I "let myself go" again. Ugh.

    Them: You are so articulate. I can't believe how smart you are, you've really brought yourself far from the barrio.

    Me: Ummmmmmmmm? What's a barrio? (in earnest)

    Them: *dead silence*

    My friend: Glares at them and pulls me away by my arm.
