What annoying comments did you get from your weight loss?

'You are going to blow away" I weigh 179 at 5'5"

"Eat! You must not be eating! Eat this!"

NOOOOOO.

My family and friends support me, but now as I'm very close to my goal, people are afraid I'll be underweight. I have anxiety and at times I do obsess over exercising and food intake, but that's a constant mental battle I'm trying to fight. However, my good friend decided to tell me she was disappointed in me because I ate a big mac. I think her concern was valid because I've been eating clean for a month (I cut out alcohol and decided not to have cheat meals) but I caved and had one bad supper. Still, hurtful nonetheless.
I also get offended when people say I'm getting too small. It irks me to no end.

My husband: "well, don't go buying a whole new wardrobe every time you go down a size"

Fast forward to a couple years later, gained 20lbs and needed to invest in a professional wardrobe for business school. I couldn't fit into what size I thought I was. I came out of the dressing room, and told him "come on" and made a beeline for my car where I broke down in wracking sobs. I then said "well, it looks like I won't be buying a whole new wardrobe every time I go down a size" He had no idea he even said that. He marched me back into the store and said "buy what size you are now, and when you go down a size, buy clothes in that size, and the next, and the next. Don't listen to me, I am an idiot."

I was about to get angry, and then I awww'd. I'm glad he saw how much of a dink he was.

I've gotten the
"No more"
"Are you even eating?"
"When did you get so skinny?"
"You have no muscles, Skinny"

The word "skinny" just really pisses me off. I could rant all day, "you don't know my life, you don't know what I do or what I eat and you don't have the right to tell me how to live my life"

I was obese at 10 years old because my family literally doesn't know how to live a healthy lifestyle.. now I'm 19 and in the best shape of my life. And they're mad because of it.
Wellll, suck it. I like myself now

I get it in the neck every day from unsupportive colleagues/friends suggesting I eat their pizza/chocolate/bad foods.

Told I look fine, am obsessed, should stop, it's unnecessary etc

Sometimes I feel like I people think I am becoming anorexic. In reality, I look like I ATE 10 anorexics...

Seriously though,I'm doing this for the right reasons and safely

my older sister told me only last week that i shouldnt lose anymore weight....and she added the comment

"your eyes look too big for your head"

i said seriously what can i do about that!!!!

Hahahaha!

Your sister sounds crazy!

Man there are some mean folk out there! I get lots of encouragement for the exercise I do; cycle my commute, training for 5, 10 and 21ks. BUT when it comes to monitoring what I'm eating I do get irksome comments.

- you of all people don't need to count calories.

- you're being obsessive, just have everything in moderation.

Sounds nice, but there'll be eye rolling. And yes I do. I didn't understand what was in food and what I needed, now I do. Now I think twice about guzzling down junk food cause it's quick. It's fine if people don't want to count calories but I don't nag them for not doing so, so why nag me about trying to improve myself? Why is exercise encouraged and having a healthy diet slagged?

I get a lot of "What kind of diet are you on?" I tell them, "I'm not on a diet, I made a lifestyle change!" Gets some strange looks.

My mom keeps making snide comments about how she hopes I'm not losing more weight.

None, ever.
Maybe because I come from one and live in a different culture. But neither in my home country, nor in the country I now live in anyone would ever say anything like the comments mentioned here. Weight loss is usually considered to be a private matter, so no one makes remarks.

Most of the comments have been positive, but my son keeps bringing home food for me to eat. Sonic is a nice treat but I don't want or need it that much! No, he doesn't work at Sonic. He is an electrician.

My 20 yr old niece asked how much I'd lost (it was 15 at the time), she said, "Yeah, well I'd go for 15 more."
I told her I was buying her "Mean Girls" for Christmas, so sad she got her feelings hurt...

i seriously cried from laughing at this one because i sent a copy of "Mean Girls" to my husbands sister for a similar reason.

My favorite to date is actually from today. I have an upset stomach and someone literally told me it was because I abuse laxatives to lose weight. I haven't taken laxatives in, oh, about 6 years.

Are you on drugs? Nice, I know.

"You have lost any fat, you just lost 100 pounds of muscle.", of course coming from overweight people themselves, I think it just jealously, just because they're tried in past, got nowhere, gave up, and 'just can't do i't attitude.
