People Tell Me To Stop Loosing.

SSo I'm down 112 lbs from a yr ago & feel great but I'm 22 lbs from goal of 150 lbs. People keep telling me I should stop loosing bc I look like I would blow away if I lost another 22 lbs. I just don't see what they r talking about! ? I'm still a size 12/14 & wearing lg shirt I think I could stand to lose more than 22 lbs but I'm trying to be realistic. Ne else face this dilemma?

  • I think people are so used to seeing overweight/obese people that they no longer know what normal looks like.

    I had this exact same conversation with several friends at dancing tonight. Two guys both told me not to lose any more weight or I would be too thin. Too thin for whom? For what? Neither of them asked

  • It's comforting to know that I'm not the only one facing this dilemma. Tonight I was talking with one of the doctors I work with and he said "good grief it seems like you've dropped more weight since

I just tell people thank you for your concern, my doctors and I will decide where I should stop based on my health. My primary care doc wants me to lose another 10 lbs, but is not unhappy with where I am compared with where I was.

I've been at the same weight for 2 years now...and people still ask me when am I going to stop losing..uh about 2 years ago. :)

I get the same comments. When I tell them I would still like to lose 10lbs, I get the question "Where?" I was once a size 28 and now a 6, but I still see areas to lose.

And OMG! I get the question if they are going to take the band out too? Heck no. That baby is staying put!!
