I get this a lot! One of the most common is, "you've turned into a different person!" - I bet CD didn't know the diet could do that, lol! It's when you go to a gathering of friends who you haven't seen for a while - that's when you get surrounded by cries of "amazing!", "fabulous!", etc. - personally I can't get enough of it! We are now dressing to suit our new shapes of course, so it's a double whammy for friends ('tent-woman' suddenly turns up in a bodycon dress - OK, extreme example but you get the idea, lol! ).
The fact is that when I look back at my 'before' pix, I DID look crap before! Or crap compared to how I look now anyway - that's the bottom line really.
(One of the best compliments I had was when we went round to a friend's house, and him and his mates started teasing my hubby, saying things like, "you'd better keep on your toes, matey - she'll be off at this rate!" - obviously it was all in fun, but I think it DID make him sit up a bit! And who doesn't like a bit of male admiration?!)
Was the comment I got yesterday -well was I ugly before I lost weight lol
Has anybody else had strange reactions from people they havn't seen in a while since weight loss? I know they mean well but some reactions are shocking
I wouldn't have recognised you, you look so well Is another one
I must have looked like crap before
lol..... Bless them they have good intentions. I lost 7 stone and put on 7 and a bit, the only person to say I had put some weight back on was my Grandad.... It must be their heart felt good intentions for you.LOL!
my nan and grandad always talk about my weight, my nan says 'youve always been a BIG girl' and pats my chunky leg!and my grandad just bluntly says on the phone..'have you sorted your weight yet?' lol. (wen my son was a week old he said 'youve got the hard bit done, now you can sort your weight out'...lovely)
but i dont take it to heart and cannot wait to see wat they say to me wen im all slim!! i prob wont see them untill xmas so i should be a good bit smaller by then!!!
cannnnnt waiiiiit!

oh yes, that ones a classic lol, or- I can't believe how small you look from behind, said my best mate- so when I turn around is it shock that I am fat person lol
Fluffycat - so one day, when some one said I, bearing in mind I had put on 6 stone, told me I had put on weight, I said... "oh have I, I didn't notice."... lol... well I got fed up in the end.
Lol, loved that answer It still amazes me that people have the front to tell someone they have put on weight, I would never dream of giving someone a negative comment like that
