just a general rant!!!!

I lost approx 14lb before joining this site, and have lost 13lb since. My exercise is limited at the mo 'cause i'm still recovering from a nasty break to my ankle in feb.

However thanks to this site, my close friends and facebook friends i think i've been doing really well!!

So please explain why i've been asked 3 times!!!!! in the last few wks if i'm having another baby...:mad:

Don't you just want to punch some unthoughtful people!!!!!! i could just blame it on pregnancy hormones :devil: lol

:frown: Whoa... sorry.
There's something you never say to any woman unless she brings up the topic first. How do you even respond to that?

OMG that is just awful!! Try to use it to motivate yourself towards your goal. I once made the mistake of asking someone about the baby, but it was only because someone had told me she was pregant... she was not I will never make the mistake again about asking, even when I see someone who is clearly like 9 months pregnant, I ask someone else first to confirm!

I had someone say something like that once to me b/c my shirt looked a bit like a pregnancy shirt... well I can assure you I never wore that again lol

U deserve a good rant!

Maybe you have a glow about you? :bigsmile:

I think I'd just smile and ask "Why would you think that?" and let them squirm! But then I can be a bag about that kind of thing! I don't think that's EVER a safe question to ask - unless you can see the baby emerging at the time lol...

one of them was a lady at asda, who asked me if i should carry the buggy i was buying for my 2yr old in my condition!!

I simply asked her what condition and watched her squirm lol x

Ugh!! The dreaded question!! I hate that question!! That's the worst question you could ask a woman, or pretty close to the worst question!! I carry much of my weight in my tummy/hips and I look preggo if I don't suck it in a bit or try to hide my fat with clothes. I'm so sorry you had to go through that. It hurts, I know. I do like how the one person that asked you that felt like an *kitten*. You have done pretty well for nursing an injury, keep up the good work! Use you're frustration with them as fuel to burn some calories. Anytime I get flustered ( for many random reasons) I take it out on exercise. *hugs* and good luck throughout your journey.

i had saved my money to treat myself to a facial and a massage. as i was laying there, wrapped in warm sheets, getting ready to be pampered, the massuse says "so are you pregnant?" and i said , um, no, and tried to convince myself she asked everyone these same questions!! i should have asked for my money back and gotten right up off of that table, because there was no way i was going to be able to relax at that point. i spent the next few hours obsessing:mad:
