I am currently on a weight loss, get fit, for the glory of God (and the good of me) journey. You can follow me along this path and hopefully walk away encouraged. I have 105 pds to loose so this will take a while but I'll hope you'll stick around.

a survey
What does it mean when someone says "You do look tired...I don't mean that as a dis, it's a compliment."
no freekin way. Its like when someone cuts you down, and you get mad and they say.."SHEESH I WAS ONLY KIDDING". No, they weren't kidding and they were being mean.(or jealous) Sometimes we need to return to what mothers have taught their kids for years...IF you dont have something nice to say......DON"T say anything. ...as opposed to my famous..ok maybe not yet, infamous lines about someone's shirt, or jewelry that I admire..I say.."Hey you know..THAT REALLY looks like crap on YOU, and you probably ought to just give it to me!!". d.
i have to agree with donna, unless it is someone who loves you and just wants to help...
if you're are going to tell someone they look tired, or sick, or ANYTHING, you better be ready to offer them some kind of relief.
i'm so sick of "personal remarks". are my parents the only ones who taught their kids that you don't say ANYTHING about someone's personal appearance? it just isn't polite. it seems like everyone i know thinks it's funny or "family" to comment on other people's hairy feet or pimples or skinny legs, or shortness, or whatever.
i'm seriously going to move to the amazon next week. then it won't matter what they say...cause i won't understand it!!!

hmmm...What if it means, you look tired because you worked hard on something and "bully for you" for working so hard?
