Christmas Jumper woes

KateTii

Wearing clothes that are too large can highlight weightloss in a negative way. Go for the fitted clothes!

Move to Australia then you can wear a Christmas t-shirt instead. No such thing as Christmas jumpers here.

Wear clothes that fit and flatter you!

Wear what fits OP

Is it weird that I've learned more useful info about day-to-day life in other countries from the MFP forums than pretty much anything else in my life?

I usually go with "I'm sorry you feel that way" when people are being weird and slightly inappropriate. It usually shuts them up and is less confrontational...no point burning bridges at work.

"'I'm sorry you feel that way" is such a work - horse

"You may be right" is one I've used to shut things down too. In my mind I finish it with "but you're not" lol.

Seems reasonable Lillymoo. Come on down, OP! It's beautiful here today. (Better make it today; tomorrow's going to be a scorcher and we'll all be whinging about it. )

Anyway, I'll add to the chorus of "wear the small one" and enjoy it!

ETA: Oh and congrats on your weight loss. That's awesome!

I generally go with 'that was really hurtful/inappropriate, was that your intention?'

This Friday is christmas jumper day, so most people in 'fun' offices will be forced into something stupid.

I'm torn between the t-rex and the pizza kitten....

The t-rex is awesome. I may or may not have just ordered it.
