I felt as if everyone at work was having an intervention with me today. If I hear 1 more person tell me that I look too skinny I think I might just put my foot up their a$$. I am down to about 122lbs and I feel great. I am not trying to lose anymore weight but I just don't think I have too much control over it right now.
As 3 people were telling me that I looked really skinny another lady whispered in my ear that I could use to gain about 5 lbs...really?!?!?! Where were these people when I looked TOO FAT? Nobody once told me that I looked unhealthy and that I could use to lose about 120lbs. Not 1 flippin person!
Okay I am gonna go eat a deep fried Twinkie now so I can gain that needed 5lbs, maybe I should eat 2...c-ya

i never could understand how you can see a 5 lb weight difference in anybody....  hells bells, i can put on that much in water weight if i eat something salty!!

they're just used to you being bigger and are trying to wrap their heads around the idea of a skinnier you...   i'd say "thanks for your concern, but me and my doc think i'm just fine!"

 Hell, maybe next time you should outright ask them where the concern was when you were fat. That might shut 'em up.

You know, I wish people would just leave everyone alone... everyone tends to be so catty...I think I would have started pointing things out like "Your nose is too big...and your Breath stinks all the time..." Maybe give them a taste of their own medicine!
I think you look fantastic!

Thanks MelMel. I feel great. I work in a lab so I check my bloodwork often and they all know my results are great so they should just shut it!
