Why? đź« 

Hello everyone, I’m on my 6 month of Zepbound and I feel great! I’ve lost over 40 lbs and feeling more energetic but I’m really struggling with the social aspect of weight-loss.

This lady at work has been incrementally making comments for the last 2 months. For example, “look at you skinnyyyy.” And also had asked me how I lost the weight which I responded I’ve been more active and eating better.

Well yesterday, she asked me AGAIN🫠 how I lost the weight and I responded the same way. But she could just not believe me and asked “are you sure you’re not on the shots?” And I’m terrible at lying so I just said yes. I tried to be nice and keep the convo going but IMMEDIATELY after we walked away she went STRAIGHT to her work besties desk. I couldn’t help but wonder if she went over to discuss it, like my “secret” was out. Maybe that’s not why she went there and I’m overthinking but they do have a reputation for being hella judgy.

Anyways, I feel so unsure about how to handle these situations and I wish people would just not ask because they don’t know what we’re going through and how it can affect us mentally and it’s so PERSONAL. I guess overall I’m just overly sensitive because I’ve been overweight for so long and I’m still adjusting to this new world.
