    I doubt she's ever had kids or knows anyone that has. It's not so easy to keep the weight off when you're pregnant with hormones and food cravings and insomnia and exhaustion, etc! It's hard to explain that to someone that hasn't experienced it.
    60 pounds off in 14 months is FABULOUS! Keep up the great work and f*** her! My son is 2.5 and I'm still 5 pounds from my goal.

    Just weird really. I can't imagine what she would have been thinking. Maybe she just has trouble that way – everybody isn’t skilled socially. Sounds like she’s done that kind of thing before and the other woman had witnessed it. I really would write it off as having nothing to do with you.

    Totally rude! I can't believe people can be so mean! Good on you for making the effort to go to the gym! Maybe she was jealous you had such a cute baby!

    Well first of all it wasn't really her business to know how long you'd been a member or how much weight you've lost, she's another member not a trainer. Secondly it sounds like she was looking to feed her vanity ego by mentally comparing her own weight and fitness level to yours, bonus because you still have a bit to go.

    It's something I know I would've been upset over because no one gets the right to judge my progress. I'm me, they're them. If they have a butt that can crack walnuts and I don't so what, as long as I'm making progress on my goals and am happy with it then that's all that matters. She can take her attitude and use it to clean out her pipes so her head will finally get out her *kitten*.

    When we got to the gym I had to change my baby's diaper before I could take her into the nursery. Well while I was in the locker room this lady walks up and says.......

    "Awww what a cute little girl." I said "Thank you" then she asks me " How long have you been coming here?" I said "Do you mean how long have I been coming to the gym or working on my weight loss?" She said "Gym" I said "On and off since Dec. '11" Then she said "Well now that we're on the subject how much weight have you lost?" I said "Well my daughter's 14 months old and in that 14 months I've lost a total of 60 lbs. I'm still aiming for another 50 to 60 lbs" Then she smirked and said "Well looks like you have a long way to go!!" After she said that she just left.

    I was floored I didn't know what to say and the other lady in there just shook her head and mouthed the words "Are you okay?" I mean do I have the right to be mad?

    You're the winner here! You can always fix the weight. You can't fix no brains.

    Ok first off...congrats on your WL.

    Second...I really don't think some people have the common sense chip in their brain. She either is a raging ***** or just didn't realize she said something so stupid. Don't let it get to you or permanently mark her as being that way all the time.

    Onward! :)

    The "old lady" comment was really rude and offensive. I am 62 and would NEVER say anything like that.

    Sounds like you have a lot more to be happy about than she does.

    Congrats to you on your progress. That woman has an empathy problem. Too bad the dirty diaper didn't accidentally fall on her and splat open!

    Try not to let her bother you.

    I hope you laughed in her face! I call mean old lady comments like that "granny gaming". What a terrible,terrible,terrible person. I agree with Melbaby, too bad the dirty diaper didn't get squashed into her open mouth, by accident of course. :laugh:

    Haters gon' hate.

    But seriously, EW! What a snatch. If she didn't mean it to be cruel (although I can't imagine how anyone could say something like that with positive intentions), just chalk it up to her being the most socially awkward girl in the gym.

    Congrats on your MAJOR accomplishments. :)
