mmhorgan2001 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Today a coworker asked me of I was still working out. Feeling proud of myself, I affirmed that I was. "It shows," he says, " your face is really starting to look drawn."Woot for me and my skeletal face! Link to comment
Roocifer Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Haha, what a weird comment to make. I'd take it as a compliment too, though - I'm sure they meant well Current Challenge: Roocifer's Eat and Run Challenge | Fitocracy Level 2 Scout: STR: 4.25 | DEX: 8.75 | STA: 8.75 | CON: 6 | WIS: 7.5 | CHA: 7.75 I feel my boots trying to leave the ground, I feel my heart pumping hard, I want to think again of dangerous and noble things. I want to be light and frolicsome. I want to be improbable and beautiful and afraid of nothing, as though I had wings. - Mary Oliver Link to comment
Wicked Pixie Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 People just suck at talking sometimes. Good for you for not punching them in the babymaker! Link to comment

Susie_Derkins Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Definitely a compliment! As a coworker, he can't exactly say, "Your booty is rockin!" It never gets easier, you just get better. Blog -- 1st Challenge! -- Log -- Pinterest -- Goodreads Link to comment
Leimanu Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Woot for me and my skeletal face!I snorted when I read this.Maybe drawn was just the only work someone could think of, not necessarily mean. I can't really think of any complementary ways to say your face is losing weight.............whatever, someone noticed it, and took the time to say it.Good job, Skeletor! <--<< Daughter of Artemis >>--> Link to comment

WizardTrip Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 HA! It's OK. My work IDs still have older photos and I have a co-worker that periodically asks to see them because she wants to see my "fat face".Grats on the oddly phrased compliment!

Dio Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 When I first started primal and dropped 30 pounds in a couple months, someone took my wife aside and asked her if I had cancer. One day at a time. No excuses. Battle Log | Current Challenge - Bleep All the Things Link to comment
Ocelot Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Hopefully they meant it to be a compliment, the words probably just came out wrong. I do that all the time - it's like a weird compulsion. My foot just wants to be in my mouth. That's awesome that your progress is showing so much. | STR 15 | DEX 14 | STA 14 | CON 10.5 | WIS 11 | CHA 7 | Level 5 Ocelot's Dossier - Battle Log | Springing into my Sixth Challenge!
