    Because they're *kitten*... even if you were gaining weight nobody should be saying that to you!

    Maybe they're jellysickle and acting passive aggressive.
    No one has ever said that to me when I lost weight. How strange (and rude).

    I would never say that to anyone, even if they looked like they had gained 50 pounds! Who does that? Why didn't she go ahead and mention that you have bags under your eyes and you need to fire your hair stylist! Does she have a problem with your clothing style too?

    Clearly, it is safe to assume that some people are completely devoid of both couth and common sense.

    I would have to say I would have stabbed them in the eye.

    Next time say, "Nope, actually lost weight, by the way, you should really think about a breath mint or 20?"

    After I lost my first 20lbs, my mother asked if I was 5 months pregnant. Thanks mom-I was feeling pretty good until about 3 seconds ago lol.

    I have one of those. I had lost 20 lbs and my mother pats my stomach and says to me: "Well you haven't lost that". Turned out much later that my enlarged tummy was due to fibroids. Still....

    Sounds like they're getting defensive because they haven't done anything in their lives lately to challenge/better themselves. People who are bitter and unhappy with life are often the first ones to try and cut you down; because if you can't do it, it means they're ok in their rut! It's sad. I think women are particularly bad when it comes to competitive bi***yness. :( to say you're gaining weight at all is just rude, let alone when you've LOST weight! Just keep your head up and be proud of what you're doing; they'll still be as sad and pathetic as they always were and you'll look awesome in a swimsuit.
