"So did you used to be really fat?"

Note to self: any conversation that starts with "Don't take this the wrong way" is not going to be a good one....

So this woman who started after I left for holidays asked me today:
"Don't take this the wrong way, but did you used to be really fat?"

Seriously.

That was verbatim.

Apparently the IT guys are talking about how 'thin and trim' I look and she figured - based on the comments - that I must have been really fat.

Ummm. For the record? I wasn't.
