    Today: "your portion sizes are too big". I am dismissing it. I've lost 40 lbs, it's working for me!

    "you don't drink very much (alcohol), you're not much fun are you" (!)

    "why don't you eat desserts anymore"

    "should you be eating that if you are trying to lose weight" ><

    "it won't hurt to have cake/donut/alcohol"


    No, I don't drink a lot of alchol but I am still fun, I don't need to drink to have fun! I do have desserts when I REALLY want one and not just because I'm out for a meal, yes I can eat that because I want it and it fits into my calories allowance, no it won't hurt me to have cake/donut/alchol when I really want it and not just because you say I should!

    I don't really let what people say bother me, sometimes my friends will say I eat rabbit food, or that I'm no fun because I don't drink though, I guess it's kind of annoying lol

    'I want fun MrsSWW back!' from a friend. :huh:

    Yeah, well Fun SWW has been replaced by Fit SWW, and all you ever want to do is go out and get drunk with me; you want to spend time with me, buy some walking shoes or get over it!

    Oh yeah, and 'The dog's been sick!' :sick:

    I hate hearing "You don't look as big as you are." in response to me saying something that being so big prevents me from doing. Like riding a roller coaster, sitting in a booth or sitting on certain furniture.

    "You're not fat." When I say that I'm overweight, fat, obese, etc. Yes, I am. More than half of me is fat. I am fat.

    "That's not good for you." In regards to my diet and anything I eat.

    Or, my absolute favorite. "She was really fat. Like... not as big as you but close." or "She was really fat, even bigger than you." Because I'm the standard by which my family judges other people's fatness. I hate that.

    'You're too skinny'

    'Put on weight'

    'You're just the right weight now, stop losing weight'

    I HATE when people police my portion sizes.
    "Oh you're eating again? You must be hungry... you'd better be careful!"
    Um no. If I'm hungry I eat.

    "I don't know why I'm feeling so weak when I'm only eating 800 calories! What am I doing wrong"

    and then the inevitable

    "You're supposed to look bigger after being a mom" ... UM NO

    "Haven't you lost enough weight already?!" Again, if I have, that's none of your business, and I'll stop when I'm ready

    "You're getting too skinny and you look like you're trying to compete with teenagers" Uh, really!?

    "You're SUPPOSED to gain weight after a certain age." --no.

    "You're not that fat so you shouldn't worry so much about it." ---i'm not THAT fat because I DO worry about it
    This. I'm 42 but look younger so people assume that this so-called middle-age (HA! middle-age for other people perhaps, I'm just getting started enjoying my life) thing includes massive weight gain. I disagree.

    I'm only about 10 pounds from my goal but I'm flabby. I'm working on it though.

    I got a little butthurt when I went to lunch with a couple of girls I know from my work and one of them made a big production of how she was so *INSPIRED* because I had already lost so much and still have SOOOOOOOO much more to lose than her.

    This kind of stuff just SLAYS me. What it boils down to is people who have Zero self control or dicipline not to eat like crap and clearly jealous. When people try that nonsense on me, I always say this to myself: "it’s better to suffer the pain of discipline than suffer the pain of disappointment." Remembering that always helps reinforce why I do what I do to myself by eating right 99% of the time vs. wrong. Cheating here and there is good for you mentally, but you gotta EARN it.

    My boss: You look too skinny. Your bones stick out too much. I'm worried about you. If you have any issues that you need to talk to someone about, my door is always open.

    My boss again: How did you lose weight? Oh by eating healthy and exercising? No, that doesn't work for me. Cutting carbs is the only thing that works for me. (He has to be about 350-400lbs).

    My little brother: I know I always told you that you were too fat but now you're too skinny and look disgusting. You looked better when you were fat.

    OMG I forgot about this. RAGE.
  • unfortunately I come from a family that is obese. I started my weight loss journey at 18. originally I lost 60lbs. they would always tell me that I was to skinny and needed to gain weight, they would always try to get me to eat fatty foods. then when I went from 118 to 145 they told me that I was looking good and stuff. even though I was overweight based on BMI. Now that ive been on my diet and have lost 8lbs they tell me im crazy and need to stop. I hate that the people that are supposed to encourage me and support never do!

    I hope this didn't post twice, I just lost my previous response.

    I got a little butthurt when I went out with some girls I know from work and one of them made a big production about how she was so *INSPIRED* by me...because I've already lost a lot and I have so much more to lose (left) than she does. WTF man, can't you just say "hey, atta girl. I'm inspired to follow your example" and call it a day? No, she had to throw in there the Judgy Mc*****face "because you have SOOOOOO much more to lose than I do."

    2nd place goes to my colleague who asked if I had surgery and then shared his opinions on that. I didn't have surgery but felt like I had to defend people who do/did. He also opined that my knee problems were from "carrying all that weight around for all those years" in the most condescending tone possible. Funny, is the arthritis in my shoulders or hands also from carrying that weight around for all those years, JURIS Doctor?

    Pair that with "Hey! Don't touch my boobs!" and it just became the worst night ever.

    Too many to type out lol but a few:

    -If you lose any more weight you'll be anorexic.(no you can't be anorexic if you eat between 1700 and 2200 calories/day)
    -Now I'M going to be the fat one. (oh nooooooes!)
    -Where'd you hide the body? (meaning that I lost a body and dumped it somewhere)
    -You need to stop. (um, stop what?)

    Not weight related, but I hate hearing anything that starts out with
    "You know what you should do? You should...."

    Especially when it comes from someone more stupid than I am :bigsmile: , or someone I don't respect them or their opinions at all.

    A family member who is a total train wreck in her personal life will commonly interject her opinion and office advice to everyone else in the family about what THEY should do, meanwhile living in her hoarding conditions and constantly spewing excuses about why 'that won't work for me" or "I can't do that because..", and never EVER having enough money to get by without crying for help.

    I totally agree. When people start a sentence that way with me it never ever ends well. I have a list of options when I hear those words.

    a. completely ignore the advice, but be po'd cuz it was given unsolicited.

    b. get into a shouting match, that is my usual go to with my SO.

    c. start a rapid response back on what they should do or shouldn't do

    d. silent treatment as I plot their terrible fate

    To "relax". I twinge when I hear someone say that to me. Even thinking about someone saying that to me now is raising my blood pressure.
