People who write about not being able to get to a healthy weight are not of interest to me. The fact is that 90% or more people who lose weight gain it back within 2 to 5 years, so, of course one might get defensive about questions like this.
No one asks if I've lost weight. They ask how I've developed such attractive shoulders.0 -

I completely agree. I learned early in childhood that you shouldn't discuss others weight. It's just not right. I also had several friends in high school who had eating disorders so weight couldn't be discuss around them. Just based off of that alone I never talk about weight in public settings so I don't trigger anyone.0 -
