[Otherwise when she makes comments about "did you lose weight? you looked a little "hippy" when you came in for your interview" or "you look like you gained some weight over the weekend" and my favorite is "why is it that white girls get those little tummies?" I would tell her how I really felt and be fired!] Sometimes people just say things like that to make themselves feel better. It's easier to pick other people apart when you don't really want to focus on yourself. You've lost a lot of weight and you're working really hard.... don't let her suggest otherwise.

Ha. I have a coworker like this. She's also overweight, but probably 50 or so lighter than I am. She was hard core into the Atkins, and when I wouldn't join her, she started making snippy comments like, "Well, you'd lose it faster if you did Atkins," and stuff like that. When I lost 20 lbs and the only place I could see it was in my face, she made sure to point out that I didn't look any different to her. In the beginning she seemed encouraging, so I'd share my elliptical successes with her, and she'd say that she did an hour when I only did 20 minutes and what not. She always had to top me. Since the face comment, I haven't shared anything with her, but people around her are commenting on how great I'm doing, etc.
Oddly enough, I'm down a little over 30 lbs and she hasn't hit her first 10 lbs yet.
There is a satisfaction in that.
Keep doing what you're doing, Curv, it's obviously working.
Happy :) (n a rant)
