I think I'm insulted... I think?!

Today, I got a compliment but I think I'm insulted. 

I went to the office today and was in there briefly; practically making a quick getaway - in fact I was in the car about to pull away when the receptionist for the building waved at me and ran out of the building.  We have an employee entrance away from the main entrance and I rarely see her and frankly, I don't even know her name because I can count on one hand how many times I have even seen her.  She is always friendly and we share the usual pleasantries (Hi... How are you... Nice day isn't it... Have a good one.) but nothing indepth.  She came out of the building and I lowered my window to see if there was a problem when she proceeds to say...

"I didn't know if that was you!  You look great!  You've lost so much weight!  I didn't recognize you!"  She went on and on and on. 

I said "Thanks.  That is very nice of you to say.  Thank you so much."  And she went on and on.  She was standing there with her mouth hanging open and shaking her head like she was in shock.  Complete disbelief.  I waved, smiled and drove off.  But it is really kind of bothering me.  I think she was being sincere.  I mean, she didn't have to go out of her way like that.  But man... alright already. 

How bad did I look before?!  My Mom says that it's just that I look so different to people that don't see me on a regular basis.  I guess she's right.  But man... 

I'm just sayin...  enough already. 

Ummm - get over it.  You know good and damn well you didn't look all THAT damn good before, that's why you laid on a table and got your guts rerouted.......

*I* own up to that **** - take a look at that damn pic of me sitting at the table in that light purple shirt..... man please - hell YEAH I look SOOOOO much better now!!!!!!

and umm - if the last time a mofo saw me I was at the table and then I walk up now..... hell YEA they gon pass out!!!!!! 

It's a compliment - take it, fold it and tuck it away in your mental cubbie.  Pull it out as necessary for motivation.

I'm gone agree with the Mack on this one.   When your ass is big and sweating trying to breath after walking 4 steps, with big ass rubber in the waist pants that leave inprints on your belly that itch when you pull them down.    That **** is not cute,  you get thin you get cute and you do want to hear **** like that.  

When  I was thin people would say dang you look good, I didn't realize how fat you were.  LOL.   Knowing their ass is lying.  I'm bout to get thin again and I can't wait for the comments.

Use it for motivation and keep it sexy.

Mack Momma, you is the one, baby! I love your answers, girl.

She likely meant well but just went a little overboard.  It doesn't matter what she may have thought of your "before".  Take it as a compliment.  Enjoy looking different in a good way.   

Gurl take it as compliment and keep it moving! Don't read negativity into the positive things that people tell you about losing weight and looking good
