[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have lost about 35 lbs in the past two years. I'm not a tall woman, so it's very noticeable. However, most of it was lost because of medical reasons (thyroid, medication change, etc.) and some were lost due to not eating during a depressive episode. People are assuming I changed my eating habits, and even go as far as to say they are proud of me for eating healthy and losing weight. I know they mean to be kind. I know they think they're being complimentary. But I'm so over people commenting on my weight. My weight gain was largely out of my control in the first place (went from a size zero to a size 14), and it makes me feel self conscious. So PSA - think twice before commenting on someone's weight loss - it may be a sensitive topic for them. [/quote]

I agree to a point.  But then we get mixed messages.  A person will come on say I lost so much weight from eating right/exercising and no one commented!

So most people are just trying to have basic human interactions and yes sometimes will put their foot in their mouth.  So now, I don't want to have any idle chit chat because either way you are wrong.  Better to say nothing.[/quote]

Normal people would not say anything.

The only reason for the mixed messages is because of all the toxic masculinity out there.[/quote]

What?  What a truly stupid response.[/quote]
