I know the title of this post is no surprise, people are weird, we all know that lol. But in this particular instance I am talking about them being weird in the way they are commenting about me losing weight. And I just thought I would put it on here as it might help someone else down the track, some day, eventually.
I have been running pretty consistently since September-ish (thanks acupuncture), and a happy byproduct of that is that I am losing the weight I put on when I couldn't do any exercise at all (boo chronic fatigue crash). I am running for me, cos I like it and it makes me happy (not always in the moment I am running, sometimes I just think I am crazy to chose to do that lol. But I am always happy at the end and at some point during the run), but returning to pretty much my normal/standard weight has been a wonderful perk.
Those over around 55 have been very wow good on you losing weight.
Those under around 35 have been concerned that I am losing weight.
Only those who are around my age(ish) have asked if it is intentional and if I am happy/ok.
Now I am sure everyone is happy for me and/or thinking of my wellbeing, but from the receiving end I do much prefer the people who are asking if I am happy/ok before being excited/concerned. Not just assuming it's a good or bad thing. It's such a small, and it's not like I am mad at those who are commenting straight off, but if you know someone who is losing or gaining weight maybe ask them first before reacting 😊
And that is just my little note for the day, I hope you are all having a good week 💜
