Partner Sabotage

Some will absolutely try to sabotage. I've heard from friends who say their boyfriend/husband want to know why they're losing weight and will try to sabotage because they're afraid they'll leave them or are wanting to look better because they're cheating on them. Co-workers have really tried to push food on me and spoken to me about my weight loss telling "You're getting too thin," which, lol, no I wasn't. My weight loss was making them realize their failures in the area and their insecurities. I had gone from 180 to 140 at that point, my desired point was approx 120, which I had weighed in my twenties and looked and felt good at.
I'm currently back up to 144 right now and trying to lose again to get the IBS/Gerd/acid reflux back under control. It's so much less at 120. Gaining weight makes it so much worse. :-(2
