    "You're not as fat as 'So-n-So'"

    Um, okay, thanks? I didn't ask for that, but thanks. I can't wait to tell "So-n-So" you think she's fat.

    Said by a friend expecting her 2nd baby, upon hearing that I have about 10 lbs/1 size to go: "Oh no, if you lose any more you won't be able to get pregnant!!"

    Not that I've ever given her any indication that we're trying to get pregnant or plan to have children.

    Because slim people don't have children...? dafuq?


    it is possible that if you lose too much weight, a woman can suffer from something called amenorrhea, which means the absence of a menstrual cycle when you are of child bearing age. Therefore she is too light for her body to have a menstrual cycle and get pregnant. It is also very difficult for women with very low body weights/ fat percentages to support the growth of a child.


    I seriously doubt that this woman was that well informed, but this might be what she meant.

    Exactly! The guy that said it to me would NEVER insult me on purpose and I know this... but that is what makes it forum worthy :bigsmile:

    My partner went on sabbatical from work for a few months and lost 35# while he was away. Worked really hard to get in shape...it's actually the reason I'm here now.

    Anyway, he gets back, one of his co-workers is like:

    "Wow, you've lost weight, you look really great!"

    "Yeah, thanks."

    "Wait, you don't have cancer or anything, do you?"

    "Um, no..."

    "Ok, phew. You look really great!"

    I was at a friends wedding recently, I hadn't seen her since I had started my healthy lifestyle and lost 37 lbs. myself and the OH were late into the church for the ceremony so we sat in the back pew, after the ceremony the bride( my friend) and groom were walking back down the aisle to the usual applause and smiles from the guests when I asked her to smile at the camera as they passed by. Low and behold she stops dead in the middle of the aisle lets out a shriek (loud enough for EVERYONE to hear) and says "Oh my god Ashlee I can't believe how good you look!! Like really! You must have lost 50 lbs! I can't believe you were able to lose so much!!" now remember this was with the entire church full of guests all craning to see and hear what was going on! For the entire reception I had random people coming up to ask me how fat I had been before!!

    "You look fantastic. You've lost so much weight. Are you on meth?"

    I guess that's the latest diet fad....

    At my 20th class reunion, two people asked me when my baby was due. I weighed 162; my graduation weight was ~105. In my head I was thinking WTF?!?! I don't look that bad! Out loud I said, "I'm not pregnant, just carrying a lot of weight around the middle." I then proceeded to put on 105 more pounds. Fail. I haven't gone to another reunion. I am currently down 60 pounds. I plan to lose another 70 and in two years I am going back and looking fine. There will be no questions about babies then.

    After losing most of the weight I have now, I was in line getting coffee at Starbucks. The goodlooking tall guy walks in and gets in line behind me. I am just standing there, and he says randomly,

    you know, if you lost some weight, you would be gorgeous.
    (WTF? Is my first thought)

    I told him I was already gorgeous and not waiting for his approval, and he said, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that...umm, yeah you did.

    I posted earlier that I hadn't gotten any "weird" comments. Moments ago a co-worker asked me if my wife "liked" me more now since I was a different person. I know what she meant, but I could only thinking of this thread! I asked her what made her think my wife didn't "like" before I got rid of weight. I think I kind of embarrased her...

    Not weight-loss related...but I remember when a co-worker of mine told me "You have the nicest complexion. You could be pretty if you wore makeup."

    I was like "Ahhh...gee...thanks. And you could be nice if you actually had some tact".
