Got pulled in work for a well being chat

I suppose in a way it’s good to have people that care but was very surprising

I’m 29F 169cm CW 68kg GW 63kg SW 110kg

These last few kgs have been a struggle to get off, I’m marathon training so really hungry a lot and probably a bit fatigued of dieting so I’ve been gaining and losing the same 2kg for the past few months

Obviously I’ve had a huge weight loss journey dropping 42kg going from an obese woman to a normal bmi in the space of about 18 months

I’m pretty honest in work, like when people ask me about what I’m doing what’ I do exercise wise so everyone knows I run a lot, half my colleagues including my managers have me on Strava so they can see my activities

People have commented on my weight loss and when asked if I’m Happy I’ve been honest and said I want to lose a bit more

I drink a lot of diet pop, and someone commented on it and I flippantly said “stops me eating so much rubbish” which it’s not a lie I use it as a crutch

So I had to drop something back in with my managers, we have a pretty good relationship so they said Awh come in how is marathon training, we chatted about it and how I was looking forward to it (it’s in 2 weeks) one of them made a comment about how skinny I was now and I pulled a face because honestly I don’t think I’m skinny, yes jm slimmer than what I was but I still have a fair of fat

And anyway they brought up some staff members have brought up their a bit concerned about me eating enough

I said I promise I am eating enough, that I’ve not dropped any weight during marathon training and offered to show them my fitness pal but I don’t think it necessarily helped my cause because they then wanted to make sure I wasn’t obsessive about it

Like idk I don’t know why I’m posting really, it’s nice I guess that people care? But I don’t think I have an eating disorder and it was just unexpected to have to talk about my weight and lifestyle with my managers

I also work healthcare so I know if they do think I have an eating disorder they can pull me from active service and force me on sick leave to deal with it so I suppose that’s a concern
