Starting with a BMI around 30
- Men like women with a belly (Fine, but I don't like my belly)
- Men like woman with meat
- You are beautiful (Thanks, I know I don't have to put a paperbag over my face)
- You aren't fat/overweight (Yes honey, I am)
During the weight loss
- Oh, you are still doing that? (Yes, haven't reached my goal yet)
- I could never go to the gym.
- Oh, you are eating THAT? (Sure, sometimes some junk food, won't kill me or my progress)
- Can you give me some of your recipes? (Sure!)
- Well, I'm way too lazy to cook. (... You don't have to do it, but I love that)
- Well... I have condition X/Y/Z, so I can't lose weight.
- Oh, I want to lose weight, too! How are you doing that? (Me, explaining what I do, then hearing it's to complicated.)
- Are you finished? (Nope!)
- You look good. (Thanks!)
Reaching BMI around 20 (Things are getting weird here)
- Are you anorexic? (Should have counted, how many times I heard that question)
- You sure you don't have an eating disorder? (....)
- There is nothing left of you.
- You are waaaay to skinny now!
- Why do you buy that, if you are going to purge later? (WTF? Yes, that was a serious question)
- You are still counting your calories? (Sure, helps me to controll my food intake)
- Damn girl, you look fantastic! (There are nice and encouraging people, too!)
It made me stop interacting with a lot of people, because I was so tired hearing those things over and over again. During the weight loss, I met with a dietitian from my health insurance a few times to made sure, my food plans were fine and I did the right things (and still doing them). I had no problem, when someone asked me, how I did it and if they have some tipps. But hearing so many times, from different people, that I have an eating disorder, pissed me of a lot.
Have you heard those or similar things?
