Really?


I’m guessing pp presumed something like a stomach bug, flu or cold. Not larger, more severe illnesses where hormonal imbalances, medications, etc., can result in significant weight changes. But I’m guessing

One easy-to-remember option is to say you don't know what to say. Return that awkwardness to the sender.

"Oh. I really don't know how answer that."
or
"I never know what to say when someone asks a personal question like that."

Then be obvious about changing the subject. If pressed, just reiterate that you don't know what to say and change the subject.
