has anyone ever made a weight-related comment to you, thinking they were complimenting you but ACTUALLY quite the opposite?

i'll get this started...

about three years ago, i was at a bar. a guy friend/acquaintence and i started talking and at some point i brought up how i'd been working out. he then says, "if you lose like 40 more pounds, you'll kinda look like lauren conrad"

ummm thanks???

i know he was probably thinking it was a good thing to say, but seriously?...OUCH!!!

please tell me i'm not the only one!!!

    "You look like you've lost some weight!"
    Someone at school said this to me after I had been sick.
    I spent a whole day throwing up ( couldn't get a thing down.. couldn't even drink anything properly)
    I spent the next day.. again.. in the bathroom.
    That wasn't the best thing to hear.. I must say.
