Feeling down... lots of "you're too skinny" comments

Lil, I had much the same issues. After consultation with my nut (I was still losing 2-3 pounds most weeks, and 6 pounds per month), she added in some fats and a snack to my meal plan to stabilize me. DH wants me to gain 20 pounds... not gonna happen. But I'm bouncing around the low 130's now, which is fabulous.

It's very hard to hear people call you anorexic or tell you that you're too skinny, especially when your head still says you're fat. Hang in there - you WILL land at a good place. Just give your body time to settle in. :::sending hugs to the other surgery twin:::

P-Mama/Surgy Twin... thank you for your reply, hadn't thought of giving my nut a call. 

I actually thought I had stopped losing until I went to my chart and saw I'm still about 3 - 5 pounds a month.  Obviously I'm much more active now than I used to be so of course I'm still going to be burning the weight off.

My husband wants me to gain at least 20 back, if not more!  Like you said, not going to happen!  Just have to keep my head in the game.

Thank you all for your support...  No matter what the issue, you're always so helpful and I know you'll bring my spirits back up!  I need to start being more active again instead of just lurking...

Let me just say if someone tried to button up my shirt for me, they would be pulling back a nub!

Vera, I definitely would've done the same except that I've always thought of this person as motherly type figure. Believe me, that won't happen again!

GO VERA --- I'm with you --- had to read that comment a couple of times to make sure.... 

I was pizzled for you Lilcwgirl!!!!!  The nerve of some people.

Just keep remembering everybody's got an opinion and it's ok to tell them to keep them to themselves!!!!  (with a smile, of course)

Gosh, all of you are doing so much better than I am, I still have a ways to go to get to goal. I do get those "skinny" comments and I can't see that person. I still see the overweight girl at times. You're doing great, keep up the good work and tell your co=worker to keep her hands to herself......Brenda

We all move at different paces so please don't do the compare thing, you are doing wonderfully!

Hang in there, I think people are not used to seeing us thin. My surgeon warned me that this would happen when I get to goal.

My live support group as well as all of you on OH have warned me as well... I guess I wasn't mentally prepared for it, you know.

You all have a way of calming the nerves and reassuring others that we're on the right track.  I truly enjoy being part of this group!
