I'm glad I'm 6lbs away from goal now, cause if I heard one more person say, "You want to lose that much more? Ok, but don't get too skinny!", I was seriously going to punch someone in the face.

It's a frustration we all feel, and it does get better when you get closer to goal.

Good Luck!!!

hope you have a better day!! <3

 My favorite came from my mom when I told her I was worried about gaining weight after this surgery I just had because I can't exercise and lift for the next 3-4 weeks....

"I don't think you'll gain any weight and really, it probably would be ok for you to gain 10lbs anyway." 

Ummmm......Nooooo!    I know she means well, so it really wasn't a big deal. 

I think it's like a backwards compliment to say don't lose too much and I really don't think people mean anything by it.  People are just so use to us looking a certain way (heavy) so when we lose weight so fast its such a drastic change that they may associate it with being unhealthy, even though it's not.    

I would thank them for their concern and tell them that you have everything under control.

OMG.... 

I FEEL your pain!  I have not even had my surgery yet, but I have lost 40 pounds in the last 3 months, due to working hard, and eating right! 

Well I was out of work for a week, due to my daughter being very ill and in the hospital!  When I came back to work this week, so many FREAKIN people that I don't even know (I work with 400 people) kept telling me how much i've lost, and how great I look!  I don't see it yet!  Maybe a little in my face, but nothing drastic they they are describing.  EVEN people I work closely with are trying to talk me out of surgery.  They keep telling me that I am going to get too skinny!  lol...  honstly I don't want to be skinny, I just tell them I WANT to be healthy.  ONLY if they had to live with my health issues, then they might understand.  But Its crazy, on how much you are judged on your weight!    BUT its deff getting old, and I am still freakin pre-op!!! 

Okay!  Thanks for listening!!!  :-)

Have a great day!!!

a friend of mine was telling me that i was getting too skinny...i'm at 246 right now, down from 328.  i still have a LOT more to go.  every time someone would tell me how good i looked around her, she would pout. i finally sat her down to see what the deal was.  after a lot of prodding...she revealed that she was jealous because i was losing weight. she's roughly 200.  we've been bff's for 10 years, always do everything together. i've always been the fat one, and she's always been the skinny one that got all the attention from guys.  now that i'm getting attention, it's really bugging her.  eventually she broke down, cried, and apologized for being so selfish.  so maybe that's what some of these people are doing to you guys? they're afraid of the role reversal.

 well get THIS!  i havent even begun to lose the weight yet and one of my friends asked me how much i had planned to lose and when i told her 160 pounds she went crazy on me! telling me i cant possibly need to loose that much weight and that i was going to blow away...
