So, I have been getting some great compliments lately on my weight loss. It makes me feel really good.

HOWEVER - there are those compliments that make you wonder

For example, "You look great! I mean you looked good heavier, but you look great now." HUH?!?

So what has been your most awkward compliment that made you say - Thanks, I think!

I've gotten some like that too. Like, "you've always been pretty, but now you look fantastic" or "I always knew you'd look amazing smaller". Hummm...really?

Oh well. I'm happy with me and look good.

See I don't take that as a backhanded compliment. It's the person's way of saying they always thought you were good looking. I think that's sweet.

At nearly 4 years out I don't get the "you are doing so great!" type things any more.

I did get a really nice compliment from a drunk guy.

My daughters' Girl Scout troop was out at the football stadium selling cookies this past weekend and I'm out there with the girls, yelling out for people to come buy and a guy swaggers over and goes, "I don't want any cookies but I would like to buy you a drink cuz you got a great rack!" I smile. He goes on to say, "Seriously, miss. If I was your child I'd act up just so you could spank me..." and then totters off.

I take what I can get!

I would have said if you buy 5 boxes of cookies I will spank you. :)

Gotta love drunk guys

See this is where the whole "values' BS just stands in my way! He looked like he had some money.

My resolution for 2012 is to ditch the goodie two-shoes act and become an unapologetic gold digger.

Ayup.

Uh...no. He was a little ratty dude. But little ratty dudes need someone to spend their money on too don't they? Are they not every bit as deserving of a trophy wife as the next rich guy???
