So I have been depressed over my weight these past couple of years. I keep gaining weight even though the doctor says I am healthy. My gynecologist suspected that I have PCOS because I have all the symptoms, but my blood tests came back negative. I even worked with a trainer for two years and ended up gaining 20 pounds. Lately I have decided that I want to walk more and set myself a goal of walking 70,000 steps every week. I have tried running and other exercises, but I find all of them boring. Walking is the only thing that interests me. I was a feeling pretty good about my goals as I don't feel a rush to lose weight. If I can just lose 2 lbs a month, that would be great.

Then today my admin at work feels the need to point out that I am gaining weight and that I should lose weight. What the bleep lady? Why do people feel that my weight is any of their business? Is just makes me so angry right now. Its lunch time and I am too scared to eat. She threw my mind into a complete loop. I just had to write something because I feel so mad and depressed. I am starting to hate this work environment more and more each day.

Your admin is out of line. I'm sorry she did what she did to you. Don't be afraid to eat, ok? You're working on the issue and have been for a long time. That's what counts. (hugs)

I'm so sorry to hear this... some people can really be mean..

I am so sorry. This should not have happened.

So sorry Spaceid! Our societies focus on weight is so harmful. Though it is good to focus on eating nutritious, natural foods verses "empty calorie" types of foods (which I assume you are doing). I am a big believer in walking and have found that the more you do it, the more enjoyable it gets. Keep up the good fight! Curves are sexy!

That's so ridiculous and way out of line! She obviously has her own issues to work out if she felt the need to say something like that. But remember, you can change your body but she can't change her awful personality.
