So, DH comes home yesterday afternoon and says, "I saw my program manager today and he told me I need to tell you to put some meat on your bones". {blink, blink}  What?!  Good grief, I haven't changed weight in 2 years. Maybe it was the black dress pants and tucked-in shirt I was wearing yesterday. I saw the program manager before he left for the building where my DH works...maybe that was it...just a quick impression...   But, dang!  lol

Y'all have a great Friday!

I've started getting the "don't lose anymore" stuff and honestly, looking in the mirror naked is really scarey.  But, I still like how I look in clothes.  And I really hope after this knee thing, I can get to work adding muscle under all this lose skin.

All day manditory meeting today.  Yuck.  Think I will take my knitting.

I realize that the project manager was concerned and didn't mean it in a mean way but WHO THE HECK appointed him the arbitrator of how much you should weigh!!!!

Gina, I would not worry a bit...altho maybe wearing BLACK isn't such a great idea at our weight. Yes, I am including me as I realized this morning just how skinny I was getting. I still have a middle but I am wearing a size 4 easily and a small top this morning.

No business of his whatsoever!!! Enjoy your size- you have worked hard for it! It feels so good to be small1

You must have been looking svelte my dear!

I just dont understand why people feel a need to share their opinions about another person's weight. I would never say, oh you look like your going bald? Or those wrinkles around your eyes?
I would never say you look like your gaining weight? So why do people feel they need to comment when we lose weight?

Just a thought.

People get so used to seeing us one way that I think when they finally really SEE us another way it is such a shock to them. 

I bet with black on and your shirt tucked in you looked great and it was probably just a shock to him.  I would take it as a compliment that he even noticed - I think a lot of men don't even pay attention to what other women look like unless they are in bikinis and spilling out of the top of them-LOL!!

I have noticed that my face looks like it has more wrinkles in it, but I'm not planning on trying to gain any weight because I'm hoping for redistribution at some point....

Gina,
Don't you just hate those kind of comments?  NOT!  I can't wait until someone thinks I need to put a little more meat on my bones.  So he was checkin' you out eh?  Cool!
