I had a friend tell me this. He was joking about me being more douchey after losing the weight and saying that I was funnier when I was obese. It was just harmless joking but I can tell by the undertones there was a bit of jealousy. I called him out on it and he obviously denied it. I by no means brag or am arrogant about my weight loss. I used to be 295 pounds as a 5’11 male. Now I am down to 187 pounds. I am very proud of myself and love myself a lot more and am very confident now but I am very humble and don’t show off. I feel my personality is a lot better now than it was when I was obese. Even if I was funnier when I was obese(which I don’t believe is true), I was also a lot more unhealthy and miserable. I was using my self deprecating humor as a way to cope. Now I don’t make fun of myself and put myself down to make others laugh. Remember that if people say anything negative about your weight loss even in a joking way, it’s important to call them out on it cuz they shouldn’t invalidate your accomplishments like that. Idk I might be overreacting to this but I don’t like comments like “you used to be funnier when you were fat” cuz that kinda gives off a bad vibe. Anyone here agree?
