Hi, this really bugs me and i just wondered if anyone else had experienced the same.
I am no longer overweight as you can see by my tickers and information. This is all thanks to a vlcd.
But why is it people think it's now ok to ask how much i weigh? Just because i'm not fat anymore doesn't make the question any less offensive in my eyes.
I'm sure if i were to ask them they'd be horrified and extremely offended. So why is it different when we're thinner??
I don't mind people showing an interest and asking how much weight i've lost.... but in my eyes that's a different question!
Am i just winding myself up or does anyone agree that it's NEVER ok to ask somebody their weight.
I suppose this has arose because I'm going to a party this weekend and there is one individual i know will ask, and not to be nice, just so she can look at me in a judgemental way.
Last time we met she proceded to ask me "are you REALLY happy being that thin?"!! Bearing in mind i was a size 10 a perfctly healthy BMI, and not at all waif-like. I found it quite offensive.
