From a friend who I had not seen in around four months:
"Holy ****, where did the rest of you go?"

From my grandfather in law- "Is he holding out on you?" Me- "Huh?" Grandfather- "Is he holding food from you?"

A friend from high school- "God! You're shrinking!"

A random food cashier when I asked for Lite Ranch- "Girl, you don't need no lite ranch, you lookin' TIGHT!" (I order food from her all the time, so I'm assuming she could tell, it made me happy.

What are some of yours?

    One from a co-worker: "You are looking skinny, you must be working really hard"

    Another from a co-worker who didn't recognize me in a meeting even though we see each other everyday.

    From my neighbor, while taking out the trash wearing a tank top: "Look at your biceps, they're so toned" This is still my favorite.

    Guy at the gym I've been seeing every now and then for the last 6 months - "Alright man, I think you can stop losing weight now"

    Other guy at the gym, father of an acquaintance from school - " I don't even recognize you anymore. You are an entirely different person"

    Those were good ones.

    Those are some great compliments! I can't wait until someone tells me I don't need to lose anymore.

    Best compliment I got so far is from a longtime co-worker (that knows he can say things, others can't).

    "Now girl, don't you go losing all that booty! I like to watch you walk away and I can't bare to think of there being nothing there to watch!"

    I laughed all day after he told me that.

    My husband went to hug me from behind, and stopped with his hands on my waist and said 'wow! you have ribs now!'

    Two...one from my best male bud: "Dude, did you poop a 3rd grader???"

    And the other from my wife of 34 years who is awesome and hilarious...."Honey, I am so proud of you! You can pee standing up and hit the target now!!!"

    There are others, but I will keep those to myself :wink:

    Yesterday at the gym, a guy asked me how many times in the last year I have had to buy new pants! We are there at the same time nearly every day, so he has seen me lose nearly all 90 lbs I have dropped.

    My favorites have been when people have noticed how toned my arms have gotten.

    Other than that the "you don't need to lose any more weight" is kind of nice. Or when people actually think I know stuff about fitness because I look relatively fit now.

    Yesterday at work, an older lady came in and looked at me and said, "You are getting so skinny. You just look lovely. Your mom would have been so proud of what you have done." (Made me cry!)

    From a friend's brother last week, "I didn't recognize you in that dress! Turn around...Look at those curves!" I never used to like being "curvy", until the curves were in the right places!

    And my alltime favorite was from my brother who doesn't usually say much, We were at dinner and he wanted to make a toast. I rolled my eyes wondering what crazy thing he was going to say, and he surprised me! He said, "I'd like to toast Jen because she looks amazing! She has done something that most people can't do, and she is my hero." Again...that made me cry...and still does now!

    "girl, stop shrinking!"

    "don't blow away!"

    "promise me you're eating"

    "you haven't changed since college!!" (7 years, 1 child, and 1 bad marriage ago!)

    The woman who does my nails looked at me last time I was in and said, "Ok, how much have you lost? Your face is getting thinner!"

    I lit up inside. :D

    "What super muscle workout are you doing?" Or forcing me to get a new ID picture because I looked nothing like the person in the existing shot.

    I took some business suits to get taken in at a tailor I had never been to back in January. The tailors assistant did all the measurements and I didnt see her again for 3 months. I guess they are probably used to people saying that they are losing weight and asking for things to be taken in but 3 months later I went back and she was there. She didnt say anything at all for about 10 minutes (I kid you not). Her jaw just dropped and her mouth stayed open for 10 minutes. She kept shaking her head but she couldnt speak. When she recovered all she could do was shake her head and say "I can't believe it"

    That was the BEST response ever :)

    My Mother in Law- "I wish I had your flat tummy" "Look at your *kitten*!!!" "What are you doing, seriously?"
    My husband always only has nice things to say about me. Now he demands that I workout in my underwear. LMAO.

    There've been a few recently that have made me pretty happy:
    my uncle jokingly telling me to eat a chicken wing for god's sake,
    finally being smaller in size than my three sisters (I'm oldest - they've always been smaller than me),
    my cousin whom I hadn't seen in a couple of months didn't recognize me,
    and best of all my trainer telling me that another woman who trains within the same group I do told him her goal was to be as fit as I am.

    Today, I was out running during work hours and after I was done and on my way to the office to grab my stuff to take a shower, one of my coworkers said "Girl, you look amazing! You've lost so much weight!" all I could say was "Thanks".

    My boyfriend, one of the times he went on deployment (which wasn't long ago), I went to pick him up at the airport and he didn't even recognize me (lmao, I actually told him before leaving that he wasn't gonna be able to do so anyways...apparently, he thought I was joking). He said "OMG, I can actually grab my own arms when I hug you now!" "Thanks sweetheart, that's a nice way of telling me I've lost some weight..." Lol...

    I've gotten told that I should stop because I look fine like this...and my favorite from one of my best friends "Careful you don't lose the butt"...lol
