really wierd at work this week. lots of people commenting on my weight loss. in fact some people have been pumping me for information. they keep saying "but HOW are you doing it". I dont really want to share coz I know they would be really judgemental but it is a bit odd being stared at all the time -and its not just me being paranoid. has anyone else had this and what did you say/do?
 
First of all, great news that people are noticing! I've been honest with friends and family from the start and they're are really supportive. Acquaintances are more tricky - you almost can't be bothered to discuss it at length cos, as you say, people can be judgemental. I just tell them that it's monitored by the doctor or pharmacist, and I can lend them the DVD if they're interested. If that doesn't please them, then I just say I'm working on lowering my BMI to a healthier level. Nobody can argue with that! I've never been tempted to lie about it cos I think if we can't justify it to others then how do we justify it to ourselves?
It's obviously working for you if people are asking how you're doing it! Be proud x
 
Thats fab!
My friends and family know Im on LT but only 1 of my workmates, 2 of mine were commenting on me yesterday, saying I looked healthy and glowing! I did tell them about LT and they praised my willpower lol
 
I've been wondering what to tell people too.

I'm not lucky enough to be far enough in for anyone to notice yet, but have no idea what I'm going to say

People always have an opinion and not sure if I can deal with them judging me
