I work in a medical school and the men I see regularly are doctors. Only one has said anything to me at all - and that was the vacuous 'you're looking really well lately'. The others must be blind - or don't know what to say. I think it can be difficult for men - they don't often have the subtle communication skills women have and pitch their comments at the wrong level. If he suggested a drink or something I'd be worried - but it is good advice to be more aware of it.<BR/><BR/>I think the people who are saying you should stop are recognising that your BMI is almost normal - less than 2 points to go before you're in the healthy range. The two women who came into developers with me started management this week and they are both 25 or 25 BMI. They look fine now - as do you.<BR/><BR/>BUT the measure is not what others think but what you think. If you want to go down to the next size and it's healthy, why not? I'm hoping to be a 12 when this is finished too. However, I know I'll look good in a 14 too - so the key will be to keep my mind on the final prize - a size 12 wardrobe and the shopping trip in NYC I'm planning as my final reward!Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03503939114440277312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833371807591724259.post-66706971033527792332007-07-13T08:13:00.000+01:002007-07-13T08:13:00.000+01:00Hi Lesley,21 pounds to go just sounds fantastic an...Hi Lesley,<BR/><BR/>21 pounds to go just sounds fantastic and they'll be off before you know it. <BR/><BR/>Size 12 is a great size, it's not too skinny at all and I can't wait until I get to a size 12, hopefully. I've lost over 2 stone & have another 5 to go and some people are already saying don't lose too much, very strange, but then I suppose they've just got used to you being big.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, keep it up.<BR/><BR/>Amanda xAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08468911746130254482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833371807591724259.post-74511760669937141992007-07-13T00:39:00.000+01:002007-07-13T00:39:00.000+01:00Hi LesleySooo tired but HAD to say hello.

I'm not a woman's libber by any stretch of the imagination, my boobs are too big to go braless for a start, but how is it men feel they can make these sorts of comments? Friendliness is one thing, but if he has always had a professional relationship with, then it all sounds rather suspect to me.<BR/><BR/>Or maybe I'm just jealous< Lesley!!<BR/><BR/>Chris xchrismarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10080016732509371787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833371807591724259.post-91266214713210975192007-07-12T09:12:00.000+01:002007-07-12T09:12:00.000+01:00Only YOU know when you're ready to stop - amazing ...Only YOU know when you're ready to stop - amazing how many people suddenly become experts! You look great - and I think that's what they're saying in an oblique sort of way. And I was interested to see your colleague's reaction to your boss's behaviour - remember at the beginning when they were taunting you with food?!<BR/>PxPeridothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16325992771558910173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833371807591724259.post-3139306238394198612007-07-11T22:13:00.000+01:002007-07-11T22:13:00.000+01:00well done you!

It's amazing just how much changes when you lose a substantial amount of weight.. your boss sounds extremely stereotypical unfortunately. I can not believe your resolve.. your doing amazing and continue to be a true inspiration.. size 12 sounds great to me, there is nothing wrong with having a goal and wanting to get there, what is it with people thinking we should stop before we safely get to goal... strange, but it seems to happen regularly! Roll on the next 21 pounds or roll off as the case may be..<BR/><BR/>Well done<BR/><BR/>Claire xxClaire Elliotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08716541129361511311noreply@blogger.com
