Discouraged

I just returned from a breakfast meeting where I ordered a fruit & yogurt plate. The person next to me asked why I wasn't ordering a big meal. I told her I was counting calories and that I had already lost 15 pounds. She responded by saying she hadn't noticed. I haven't seen her in a month so it's not like I work with her everyday where the change is gradual. It just really deflated my good mood...

oh man --- that is uncalled for. Don't feel bad about it --- 15 pounds is a big deal and you should feel good about it, people have a way of not always rejoicing with us when we feel good...that's their loss, not yours.

:flowerforyou: Seems to be "Insensitive People" Day.

Chin up darling and bravo on the 15 pounds!!! Go for a quick walk around the office and find something silly to laugh at. It'll bring back that jump you need!

:drinker: To a better day!

That sucks. But don't let it get you down. 15 pounds is amazing! Just remember you're doing it for you, not them. Keep up the good work! :flowerforyou:

People can be so mean! She is just jealous because you look good!

Affirm yourself and accept her comments for what they were...negative static.

Tell yourself you are beautiful, successful, and smart.

Love yourself more than for just an image.

WOW....first of all big congrats on the 15lb weight loss:flowerforyou: Secondly, how rude can a person be??? Just consider the source, YOU know you've lost it. 15lbs feels alot different in clothes!!! I'm blown away that she just couldn't say something like "good for you" or "that's wonderful" She must be a miserable person!!!! WOW

Hey, don't worry about that!
Some people won't notice if you change your hair color from black to blue!
Ugh, I hate people who don't think before saying anything.

You did a great job losing these 15lbs!
