  I thought it was bad enough that coworkers would ask me how much weight I've lost (I never tell them) But one day at work recently two different people asked me, Exactly how much do you weigh now. They didn't know what I weighed before so why ask? A guy overheard one of the ladies ask me, and he scolded her, and asked her, Are you crazy, you can't ask her that. It was kind of funny, her being put on the spot instead of me. Later she came and apologized to me. I told her it was ok, but I just don't like to tell people what I weigh. 

My husband said I should just say" I'd tell you, but I don't want to lie to you!" I think I'll try that next time.

How much have you lost? "None."

How much do you weight now? "Three pounds."

That will confuse them and you can go about your business!

How about saying, "Okay! You first!" And just stand there and smile. 

LOL! 

Some people!

I posted on another thread a few months ago that one of my best friend's always has the best answer to moronic questions like that......just look the person straight in the eye and say...........Why do you need to know?

I've used that response many times and it always seems to work.

Sheesh.....the nerve of some people!!!

Good luck.....and good job!

Good friends are like stars. 
You don't always see them but you always know they're there.
