Re: Complaining thread

[sarillia]

One of my medications keeps my weight up, and I am surrounded by weight loss advice that goes on about how eating less and exercising more is all there is to it and I'm just lazy and lack self-control.

Re: Complaining thread

[(Anonymous)]

There are a lot of stupid people in the world.

I'm shocked at how many people still believe there's a "one size fits all" weight loss plan (no pun intended).

Re: Complaining thread

:( Sorry, that sucks. If you're really concerned about it I suppose you could always speak with your doctor (though...they gave you the medicine in the first place, so not sure what good that would do unless you switched medications, and then you'd have to see if the new one would work and arg, meds are a mess), but if it isn't bothering you then whatever. Weight gain seems to be a pretty common side effect of many medications, unfortunately.

IMHO people as a rule tend to underestimate the influence pills can have. I think it's because most of them, if healthy, just take an aspirin - or antibiotics if it's really bad, but rarely need to take pills that actually have serious side effects.

Re: Complaining thread

[comma_chameleon]

I'm the opposite. The combo of all my meds had me dropping fifty pounds as well as keeping the weight off/perpetually hungry which has co-workers/concern trollers all "DO YOU EVER EAT? YOU NEED TO EAT MORE!"

I don't think people win no matter the side they're on, sadly. And there's nothing you can say to those types of people that will get them to back off either. :/ Just tell them that when your weight becomes their concern then you'll let them know. Until then they can jog on. t(o.ot)

Skinny people are also constantly harassed. It's just not polite to comment on others' weight, come on. *sigh*

Re: Complaining thread

[comma_chameleon]

I know, right? Unless directly asked for an opinion or where it's your job (medical professional, personal trainer etc), just keep your trap shut about whether you think someone's too big or too small.

Chances are it's nothing they haven't already heard ad nauseam.

Re: Complaining thread

[solticisekf]

Absolutely. I'm with you 100% on this. Family and close friends get a free pass however, because sometimes a person needs to hear it from someone.
