I think you handled it very well, some people just don't have the same boundaries with questions as we do. I can relate to this experience as last night I had a patients family member tell me how good I was looking and how much had I lost, I told her I was a little over half way there and she said "but you look good now if you lose that much you will look sickly." I said not to worry I work with many nurses who see me daily and will let me know If I have gone to far and left the room. As I said some people like to pry a little to far and give advice that was never asked for.

I think I'll use that alien comment. People sometimes are well meaning, but they just go a bit far. I wish someone would have cared enough to ask how I was doing when I was gaining all the weight.....

Incredible! Hope you don't reach over a province and slap me but I can see why the above mentioned nosey person wondered if you needed to lose that much again.

I'm wondering if all of Wuvs friends on this thread know about the "gofund"project. You can read about it on the second and third page of the "LovingWuv"thread.
