  • That was my thought as well. If only he knew how far off the mark he was!! OP, you are beautiful! It would not surprise me at all if he was hitting on you, though in a verly inconsiderate way.
  • "Eat better; move more." I like that! :)
  • I want to be able to fit into my clothes again without them fitting like a second skin. I would also like to feel healthy. .
  • I agree with gramacanada, and I also think that there are certain things that people feel judged about even if your decision has nothing to do with them, and even if you haven't said anything negative about their own personal choice, so just be gracious, hold your ground, and change the subject.
