Has anyone else had the words "weight loss is the easy bit, it's maintaining it that's going to be difficult" said to them?
I'm being driven crazy. I've been fat for a few years now and am finally starting to feel good about myself after losing 17.3kg (38lbs) in 9 weeks, although I still need to lose another 8kg (17.5lbs). I've had the above words said to me by four different people!
Do they think I'm an idiot. Of course maintaining is going to involve a complete life style change and I'm preparing for that. It seems like people would rather cut you down than compliment you and leave it at that. I'm sick of "you're looking good BUT......"
The person who says to me losing weight is the easy part has obviously never tried to shift a significant amount of weight.
The next person who gives me that line might not get a polite smile and an "i know" back.
