People have started to notice

[welshymamma]

lost a stone ...dont you just love it when someone says" have you lost weight "

 

[chickadee83]

wow, that's fab!! How did you do it? Can't wait until people start noticing

 

[tranquility]

Nope prefer them not to mention it if they do notice. It saves them enquiring how the "diet" is going at a later date. Had my boss weirdly bringing diets into the conversation several times last week but I refused to be drawn on the subject. Thinks he's a bit of a healthy eating expert but really he knows nothing.

haha, yeah! there's nothing worse than people who think they are experts.

Ditto! My mum is very straight to the point but when she pays me a compliment at least I know she means it

 

[LittleFlutterby]

I saw a friend tonight, who i havent seen for about 2 1/2 months- and first thing she did was shout from the other end of the room "omg! how skinny are you???" lol- not quite skinny- but im skinnier i think about a good stone lighter than when she last saw me

 

[crazyfluffysparkles]

I don't mind people noticing that I have lost weight but I hate when they go on and on about how meal replacement diets are super unhealthy.

Sitting there criticising my lovely shake while they are eating a sausage roll!!

Yeaaah my friend's boyfriend of all people noticed... hadn't seen him since I started (so was at my heaviest) and it was the first thing he said to me!

Glad you feel that way. My daughter has lost a lot of weight and that is great but she has cut her hair and dyed it black which I really didn't think suited her so I just said it was too dark and had a miserable 3 weeks of being snapped and snarled at while I was staying with her ... Did try to put it nicely I might add.

My mum can't say anything. I've been being told by her to lose weight since I was 13/14, not constantly might I add, and nor was I as bad as I am now, maybe needed to lose a stone and a half or something. So her saying that always made me feel big anyway, so when I actually got big it made no difference to what I thought of myself.
Something else I can see her doing which really upsets me is constantly having a go at my 12 year old sister for what she eats, which is as good as saying "we don't want you to get fat like your sister did".

Edit: sorry this post is largely off topic but I needed the rant!

 

[AmyAdele]

my mum doesnt say anything as she is also on a healthy eating kick too haha
