ShanIAm - That is what happened to me before. Alot of people where I work
told me I was thin enough and apparently I believed them and it sent me back to the roller coaster ride of dieting. "This time" I have the correct mind
set. I guess we do learn by our mistakes. I know the bottom line is -
calories in - calories out. The emotional entanglements I put myself in is
what needed the most work. I am on the right track and hope to stay there.

Try to avoid people that say such things to you if you can. I was around people like that, even though i knew i had not reached my target weight, what they said got to me (they made me feel/think i was slim enough) and i ended up gaining 10pounds before i realised i was going back down the old track.

I have been lucky enough that most of the comments I have gotten have been generic "You look fabulous!" compliments. But I have had three such comments. I do not give them a response at all.
FRIEND: You look great! Your done now, right? You should be.
ME: Thanks. Are you still running? How's the bum leg?

RANDOM DAD AT BASEBALL: Every time I see you there is less of you. You need to start eating again.
ME: Did you guys win the game tonight?

MOM: Alright, now you are getting TOO skinny, Roben. (MY name is not Roben. Roben is the name of a cousin who recently dropped a lot of weight for a body building comp and was looking pretty gaunt.)
ME: How's Grandpa doing?

People probably think I am crazy with my unresponsive responses LOL I don't care.
