"You look good"

I am so tired of hearing all around us the phrase: "You are looking really good; did you lose weight?" As if losing weight somehow automatically equals you must be healthy. If you ask me that doesn't add up because when someone is slowly dying from something say, cancer, they lose weight. In terms of health weight lose should be viewed as a concern rather then a great thing.
  For me personally, people have been tell me for the past few months that I look great and "healthy" and all that jazz. I think I lost some weight don't really keep track but I do know that at this point I am the most out of shape that I have ever been.

This poem/video by Caronline Rothstein gets to heart of the disease our society as with being skinny, fragile, and unhealthy.
Think carefully about what you're say next time you feel the need to judge someone else body.
