+538 Even though it's kind of a good thing, it's embarrassing when someone tells you something like "OMG!! You've lost so much weight!", amirite?

I think, even though it would be intended to be a complement, I would take it insulting.

when people tell me that, I do find it insulting. When I was younger I was chubby but its not like I was obese or anything so it gets on my nerves.

Yeah, I think it would just be more polite to say, "Wow! You look great!"

That way if they didn't actually lose weight, it still works.

Backhanded compliment. It'd be worse if they said, "WOW! Just last year, you weighed as much as five of me! Now, we're the same weight!"
