You won't believe how I've lost weight...

Just out of curiosity, why is someone expressing that 8lbs off in 5months would effect their motivation rude?

In an independent setting, it wouldn't be. However here, where the OP is happy about her progress it's a very insensitive thing. Between that poster and the other that stated expressly that the OP was loosing too slowly, it gives the impression that her loss was wrong or not good enough. Even better, that the only losses that count are the huge ones in a short period of time.
