Nikko Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 How would you feel if you heard this comment in a social situation where the person giving the statement isn't really a close friend of the person receiving it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liver Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) it's totally fine to compliment someone for losing weight if they used to be lazy and fat. stop trying to normalize unhealthy lifestyle choices Edited November 18, 2022 by liver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAKSIM Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Person is just trying to compliment you and I’d let it go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavish Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 (edited) I would assume that the person receiving it would feel good at first because it's a compliment and they would feel like their efforts are being paid off, but I would also feel bad for them because they might think "wait so the person complimenting me thought I was fat/unattractive before?"

ninasayers Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I wouldn't like that. People should just refrain from making comments about others' bodies, simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sombre Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I strictly do not comment on anyone's weight because you never know if they're trying to lose or gain weight. Some might take it as inspiration to go on, but others might overthink it. Shutting the **** up is the best thing I've done the last few years!

americanlife Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 "You've lost weight" is rude. Just say "you look great." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WERKER Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 It’s an amazing compliment and one of the greatest compliments we could receive. It’s almost in the same category as “You look better as you get older!” And “You’ve grown into your looks haven’t you” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brando Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 People shouldn't be making comments on people's weight gains/losses unless that person invited that conversation, compliment or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BtDecember Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I started going to the gym again last July and so far I’ve lost 10 kilograms (22 lbs) and people had said I look great. For me, that was really nice and motivates me to continue working out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 i understand how some people might take it in a bad way as you never know someone's circumstances, however i'd probably think about it positively for weeks afterward lmao . i started losing weight and i eat it up everytime someone mentions it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
