APhoebe, stay with the good, of all other do not pay much attention to those comments, sometimes they are just envy. You think how good you are with your effort, that is your reward. Good looking.🤟🏻👍🏻

Yago It would’ve felt different I guess if she asked what I do to keep a healthy weight and actually listened. Not the case so the conversation felt phony. More like a “it must be nice” statement. People like that irritate me to no end 🤦♀️

People can be jealous of others' self-discipline. This time of year they're packing on the pounds with holiday food so it's even worse. Just remind yourself that your co-worker's opinion begins and ends with your job performance. Your health is private and only the business of you, your doctor and your family.

My one boss keeps saying the reason he brings the donuts in I'd because he's trying to fatten me up... meanwhile he's on a diet

JB I think they were talking New Year’s resolutions and noticed I was there. Lol I’m kind of a fly on the wall sometimes.. Good point about health being private. I think many forget that discussing one’s weight falls under that category. She hasn’t gotten enough uncomfortable answers I guess. 🤷♀️

Otb donuts would be rough. Lol When I was younger my regionals would always say someone needs to get me a cheeseburger but NEVER got me one.. jerks. Tell your boss they have to be protein donuts. 😂

if they acknowledged that it takes work, then they'd have to admit to not doing it. it's easier to believe that others have just lucked into what they want for themselves. just be grateful that you have some more sense than them...

I've had similar situation. They said I was to skinny and to promise them I wouldn't lose any more weight. ( We are similar weight and I'm 5'6") I don't mind being called skinny but don't like it when I feel pressure to gain..I'm healthy and that's what is most important. Just do what you are doing. You are successful and being sober is a huge accomplishment. I say congratulations on your success!!🎉🎉🎉

Tell them you eat to live rather than live to eat!

I don't mind being called skinny, even if I don't feel like I am. Maybe compared to where I was before I started. But, I'm quick to let people know I work at it. I think you should have said...No, it's not my metabolism, It's my commitment to eating healthier.

Ginome that’s why I was confused. I’m like why am I irritated when she just called me skinny? Threw me off 🤣

John you totally nailed it. Now I get it 😂

Diana thank you so much! I don’t like to drone on about my sobriety but it is a huge part of my life. My weight loss is intertwined with it so it’s hard to discuss one without the other. Lol Health is our goal and that has many different looks. Btw I think you look great! 😊
