and think they're better than everyone else.
Does anyone else have a problem with this? I have an aunt who has lost around 100 lbs, and just participated in her first half-marathon. For some reason, she thinks this makes her better than everyone else, when in reality, it's made her even more insufferable than she was before she lost weight. She's always been evil (she's not one of those loveable aunts you think of fondly), but, ever since she lost weight, she's been a real you-know-what. How do I deal with this? She really does think she's superior to everyone else in the family, since we're a family of chunkies, and thinks she knows everything about healthy eating and weight loss. Considering that she still eats like a fatty and only recently learned that you're supposed to stretch BEFORE you exercise, this obviously isn't true, but there's no telling her that. She's just a pain. Help?
