    An old college friend: "Who's the guy?"
    Me: "What guy?"
    Her: "Anytime a woman loses weight, there's always a guy behind it."

    Reminded me of my aunt:
    "Oh, you're looking fabulous, are you IN LOVE?"
    Me: "Um, yes, I believe you have already met my husband!" (we had been together for 12 years at this point) :noway: :laugh:

    Another one, kind of a weird comment, bizarrely almost a compliment, lots of confused facial expressions.

    Went to Boots Chemists, was going to join the weight loss programme then (at my heaviest). The lady took my measurements, took one look at me and said, "The BMI states you are....er......obese? Er....weird.....how??" :huh: :huh: :huh:

    I think it's a) because I'm so short, so whatever size I am, people always see 'little diddy person' regardless. And b) I still kept my shape - the excess weight is all distributed evenly, even down to little fat fingers and toes :sad:

    "What diet pills are you taking?" Um none...

    I've also cut back on my meat eating. I'd go full vegetarian but I usually don't get enough protein that way due to all my food allergies so I only eat chicken and turkey now. The most common misguided response from my parents is "you're only losing all that weight because you're starving yourself of the meat your body needs" Then it turns into a whole religion thing over God giving us dominion over the animals as if I'm disobeying him by choosing not to eat beef or pork :noway:

    Shame on all you vegetarians and vegans for not asserting your power over the animals! :laugh: :laugh:

    Day carer for my kids: Dark clothes are slimming on you. Makes you look like you have been working out.
    Me: Err.. I think losing 5 kilos and running around 6 - 8km a few times a week is slimming on me.
    Day carer: ... Oh.

    hah! Credit where credit's due, people!
