Do People Notice?

ColleenMA66 · 08-06-2010, 02:06 PM

Have people that you are around all the time who do not know you are on this diet suddenly say "wow, you have lost a lot of weight all of a sudden" ?

I'm not telling anyone I'm doing this....I don't even want to deal with them trying to explain it...ect ect.

But I am wondering if I manage to drop 15 lbs in 3 weeks if my father is going to ask me if i'm sick

People comment all the time to me. I just smile and if they ask how I've lost it (and they always do), I say, "diet and exercise" and then I change the subject. Rarely does someone press the issue. It isn't necessary to share every little detail of my life with people. Some things are private.

I have lost over 30 pounds and no one has noticed. But I am A LOT bigger than you too.. takes more to notice!

I doubt anyone, especially your father, would notice that amount of loss. We look that different just dressed in something flattering vs. something that isn't. Even after losing 100 lb., some people aren't sure if "have you been losing weight?" *rolling my eyes*
