What is it??? Been attending SW for about 5/6 weeks and I still don't really understand what is meant by this ...
No you're not rude at all, it's a good pointEveryone gets their losses AND gains read out at our group - we don't have a choice! Well, unless they haven't stayed for IT, in which case C just moves on to the next person. Just remember though, you're not the only one who's being told they've lost/gained - when you're there at WI, nobody else cares about your numbers, they're only there for their own. I'm not being rude in saying that, am I? It is true though!
I think that's fine. Maybe I'm just being over-sensitive as the gains were unexplained. I had no problem when I gained due to a holiday and knew full well why AND was happy to share my antics on that occasionMy C always says it in the same format - either "X pounds lost, but a small...x gain this week, well done for your X pounds lost", so its kinda sandwiched in between two positives. I think thats quite a nice way to do it.
I think maybe you missed the part when it was said that she has been spoken to but believes if you take the applause for a loss you should take it the same way for a gain.Okay, first thing... why are people so quick to say " I don't like her" "she's not nice" "change group"???? Does anything think to TALK to their consultant? Maybe ask them not to say how much they've gained? They are human beings and generally pretty approachable so why not have a word with them, or the WI lady? They're not going to read out your gain when you've asked them not to.
Same goes for Image Therapy. If you are confused, why not ask? It' also explained in the book.
Sorry for ranting and it's not personally directed at anyone but things like this are said quite often and NO-ONE ever talks to their consultant!!!
