SO NOW I am anorexic?? I hate people...

I just don't get people at all. I had people in my life that made it clear I was dangerously overweight. Well now these same damn people have accused me of being obsessive and anorexic! NO JOKE!!??? Anorexic? Please. I am not even close to that...

I am so sick of stupid people. I feel damned if you do and damned if you don't! Ugh...

Why do people insist on telling you when you should and shouldn't loose weight???

Good on you! I wouldn't have lets that Mother Ucker get away with it.

But it *does* get better. I promise. People forget that you were ever overweight. It just takes time.

Smarter than a tootsie pop, huh? Um, that's not really that smart, is it? :blink:

It takes time for people to adjust. But asshats will always be asshats. And the "Crack Whore" comment would have prompted me to ask if he was always a dickless wonder, or if this was a new thing.

That's hilarious, Chickie. Great comeback!

BBK, I will remember now that you are in Michigan since I am originally from Chicago. Midwesterners!

Do most people know you have the band? I haven't told many people. I am fine with everyone thinking I finally learned to eat right and exercise nearly every day. If people ask me how I finally lost weight, I tell them I go to the gym 6 days a week and bust my butt exercising!

tell them your crack dealer thinks you're still fat!

oh, duh...i skipped ahead to post, and now read the crack whore post. lol

Only a few people know. I will tell if they ask how, depending on if I like them. I think what you say is the absolute truth though. I don't work out at 4 am because it is fun!

Man BBK, I really admire you. I never would have made it if I had to go at 4am. I am lucky if I get there by 8am.

WOW! Crack whore?!! That would have sent me into orbit! But I haven't lost a "crack whore" amount of weight yet!! LOL

Many years ago, I lost like 57 lbs and was in great shape. A male friend commented that I was losing too much of my chest!! Can you believe it?? Like I have control over what part of my body weight comes off?!! (I've never been big busted unless overweight.) We did a shot of tequila, and I made some snappy come back I'm sure....but don't remember! LOL I haven't told anyone except my DH, kids and 1 friend, and they are all sworn to secrecy. I'm like BBK, if I feel comfortable telling someone who asks, I have no problem with it. The LB commercials are all over TV now, so I think people are more aware of them.

Yeah, "crack whore" is pretty harsh. I would've said something like "Wow, great compliment. You should visit the pediatric cancer wards, because of your awesome talent for making people feel better about themselves"....then just looked them in the eye until the moment became very uncomfortable.

But that's just me. I'm kinda weird.

OMG I love that one!! Next time it will be said! :thumbs_up:

:mad:I think alot of people are jealous ASSHOLES. At a party this weekend most nice, but the ones mean were horrible. One guy asked me if I had become a "Crack Whore". Seriously I am sick of it all. I am ready to move to where no one knew the old me.

Pull a Dear Abby and say, "now why would you say something so awful"?

I have one tucked away if I ever need it: "I'm trying to think of how it might feel if I gave a shit about your opinion"!! :thumbup:

<Editing> Plain, I bow to your much superior diss. That was a great one! ^5

Happy 4th - I heart the USA!!!

Ha! It's a faboo co-winky dink! We can disagree about football (I presume) but can come together for our country!!!

I am in Michigan. My DH is no longer an xray tech. He is 100% military disabled. SO he is the stay at home dad.

You will be surprised what people actually think is too thin! :thumbup:

I was born in Michigan and lived there until I was 13. It's the state where men are men and women are men -- unless you're one of the few pretty ones (like you). No wonder they hate you. :girl_hug:

So Michigan is the anti-San Francisco?
