Why is it that when someone tells me they think I look good at this weight and that I dont need to lose anymore...it just makes me want to lose weight even more? Like my coworkers telling me I look great and dont understand why I want to lose 5-10 more pounds...just makes me want to lose that weight even more now.

We are very close to the same weight. But I am the opposite, I have to fight to keep motivated and not think I have come far enough when people comment. I know all the places fat is hiding, and just because I've lost doesn't mean I should halt and think it is good enough when I know darn sure I will be so happy to make my goal. I guess the key is doing what you know is rigbt for you and leaving the opinions of others out of the equation! You are doing so well!

I was asked by a few family members if I was sick. Followed by them sending pictures of themselves and asking if they look fat. My office also moved. My job moved me closer to my team. So before I moved, I was heavier. When I went to new office, people meeting for the 1st time would call me the "tiny little thing" and not understanding I just lost ~ 25 lbs. It was weird. They also see you with your clothes on. I am sure you look fabulous at what ever weight you are. But if 5-10 lbs will make you healthier in either mind, body, or spirit forget about what they say!

People project their own feelings: seeing you lose weight, may be making them think they should do the same . . .

@gz9, Yeah, your could be right. The main person who tells me I don't need to lose...now suddenly has decided she needs to lose weight as well.

@Erquiaga, it definitely does feel like jealousy..it suddenly feels like there was a competition on who is the hottest girl in the office...a competition that I wasnt aware of until now loll
