Weight Loss If you have lost a lot of weight, how do new people react when they find out that you used to be obese? Jan 11 2009

Here is a reverse scene.  I always used to weight about 120-130 pounds. Guys were always oogling me and hanging around  me, which I hated. I tried to be nice about making them go away but the wouldn't . I didn't want to outright rude, so I would go on and on and on about my husband, they would still try to get me to go out with them or whatever.  Women were catty "nice" to me but I would hear that they were being nasty behind my back and calling me nasty names because of the guys that sniffed around me.   AS I STARTED GAINING WEIGHT ( and I really did pack it on over the years)  The guys that used to fall all over themselves to help me with the smallest stuff  would not even help with really heavy objects or things I really needed help with ( i used to work in a factory)..  The women became even nicer to me to my face , but some would say things about how fat I had gotten, how big my butt had gotten, That I would need a forklift to take me down the aisle to a meeting.  I was pregant then with toxemia/preeclampsia.  So after I had the baby you can impagine how mean they got.

I am very large now, and  the guys stare at me and smile while I am in my car, but look me over once I get out of the car  and get the "ewww" look on their face.  The women I used to know love that I am fat.  People I used to know get UP INTO MY FACE as if they are looking into a window and say  is that you????    I reply, yes, I am still in here somewhere.

YOU definitely get treated better and with more attention when you are thin.  I would like to be back to at least 150, not to impress anyone, but just so I feel better about myself .
