I am a size 16 and the last few weeks i have been working hard to lose weight..have lost 10lbs so far and was feeling good about myself
I Was out Last night Dancing,Drinking etc..had a great night..Met a woman i used to work with and she asked me was i pregnant ( She knows im not cos i was only Talking to her A few days before)

I told her no and she whispered in my ear...that i was trying to beat her in the Big belly stakes so.

She is at least a size 22 always has been, this is the second time she has made a comment about me looking pregnant when she knows im not and knows how paranoid i am about my weight

I feel so stupid cos i went out thinking i was looking good!

Plain and simple jealousy.

Well done to you. 10lb is no mean feat! I agree she's jealous. She probably reassured herself that her own weight issue wasn't a problem because fran is a 16 and now you've changed that, it's upset her.

Brace yourself for more of the same and ignore her. Just take every nasty comment as a compliment as to how well you're doing.

Congratulations.

i'm angry for you!!

just say to her 'i've a long way to go to catch up with you'

she's obviously jealous 'cos your losing weight, so take it as a hooded compliment
