Strange weight loss comments...

From a trainer at my gym: "You were way hotter before you lost weight".

Please tell the trainer to go to hell! You are hot!

Ive been getting baby magazines through the mail! Dont know if someone signed me up as a joke or what!

What the?? I wouldn't know how to react to that...find out who it is and give them a swift buttkick perhaps!

From a trainer at my gym: "You were way hotter before you lost weight".

That hurt! Did you ask the trainer to go to...?

I *wish* I'd said "You were way hotter before you started talking!" :laugh: but in real life I just looked shocked and said "Really?!"

awwwww some men like the weight, just think maybe u broke his heart

This!!! Plus can I just say, by your profile pic you are definitely very pretty, so by this trainer's standards, you must have been an absolute knockout before you lost!!!!

I went to wedding lately with my family. There were many people telling me how much I've lost weight and how much my sister looks the fattest now :P but the strangest or the one that made me the most proudest was when one of my dad'd oldest friends who know me from when I was a 6 year old kid (i'm now nearly 20) went up to my sister and said "hi, its been a long time, where is your older sister?" and my sister replied, right here next to me and he blinked four times in awe. He then said, " she looks soo ugly, how ugly is she, I cant believe it, she looks so ugly, is that her??' I've never been so happy in my life!!! (by the way he found my sister who was fat, very beautiful) :P

I've gotten so many..I'd rather people not recognize me in order that I don't have to listen to stupid or insensitive comments....my favorite one is "you are wasting away" "don't lose anymore" ...

I get annoyed by comments like that too. I'm sure it's intended with a good heart but they say it as if I have an eating disorder or losing any more weight is going to effect my health negatively.

I'm still clinically overweight for my height so I clearly can lose a bit more quite safely!

I've gotten that a few times or I'm disappearing. I hardly think I'm disappearing at 225 pounds LOL.

I ran into my cousin, who I hadn't seen in about 6 months at the mall. After exchanging hugs, she says " wow, you look ... (looks me up and down, long pause)...good" like she was totally surprised that I could even look good, lol. Granted I've been overweight my who life and had lost about 70pounds since she lasts saw me and I did look GOOD but the delivery was just too funny. I still laugh about it

I was congratulated a few weeks ago. Puzzled I asked 'for what' - BOY was the client ever embarrassed. I wasn't though. Just means I have to step it up and get rid of the extra pounds!

I think the worst reaction I 've gotten is losing a lot of weight and no one notices...this has happened a couple of times. And to make it even worse is having someone else get complimented for losing only a few pounds.

I've been told by a few people now that I'm getting too thin and looking anorexic!! I'm in a healthy range, it's just my boobs haven't shrunk at all this time so my waist looks smaller.

Actually, someone from work (who I trust and confide in a lot, and knows I used to have a self harm issue) who I've been talking to about a recent bout of depression which has affected my appetite said my weight loss is out of control, I'm developing a problem and if I don't get help, they'll tell my manager and I'll be taken off shifts. I still don't know if they were joking. :noway: :huh:

I can't wait to be able to JOIN a post like this... right now I'm at 12 lbs lost and my husband keeps saying, "Your *kitten* is disappearing." GOOOOOOOOOD. It won't completely disappear, trust me folks.

Omg this! I mentioned to my SO that I was losing inches around my hips really nicely and she was all "But I like your *kitten*!" Yeah darling, the *kitten* isn't going anywhere.

And of course, my darling mother ~ "I think you look great now. You don't need to lose more. What's your weight?" ... I tell her, and she promptly goes "Oh, wow that's pretty high. That's way more than I'd thought." ... Yay. Thanks mum.

I hate it when people notice iv lost weight and are like " wow that's great... now are you gonna keep it off?" o_O uummm yeaa that's the plan any ways

I've had one person say this and TBH, I actually found it a little offensive at the time! The lady was a bit of a weirdo though :P

not so much a comment as a lack thereof

Walked into an office of someone who later told me he recognised the face but did not know it was me.

i have stumbled across baking soda for weight loss.in 3 weeks i have lost 15 pounds.from 298 to 283.i use 1 teaspoon in a glass of water once a day for 3 days then i let my body rest 2 days.i have figured out acidic food is what makes us fat.baking soda changes your ph balance.but you have to be careful as you dont want to change your blood ph just the rest of your body.you also have to take potassium as it pulls it out of you.i feel good.right now i am on my 2days off.i am really excited about it.i havent had weight loss surgery yet suppose to in a few weeks.waiting on insurance.but my doctor said it was fine just dont do it after surgery.i wont then i will do lemons and water to help with those stalls.as the weight loss foods are very acidic.now not baking powder.

I love those moments when you realize something good is happening because everyone around you is opening doors, asking you for directions, smiling and telling jokes for you. It's a good feeling & I've had a lot of that this week. Thanks MFP.
