No change in weight but was my birthday last weekend and ate a lot more than usual. Day 33 without alcohol. Many people are starting to comment on my noticeable weight loss

"You're not as fat as you used to be....are you sick? Are you going to die?"
 
It's awesome when people start noticing. But then you start getting comments like "Are you still losing weight?" and "You've lost weight awfully fast". Funny, people wouldn't say "You're getting heavier and heavier, think you outta put down the donuts?" But they think it's okay to say "Maybe you aren't eating enough? I mean, you're losing way too fast." Even though mine took six months, and I lost an average of 1.5 lbs a week because I quit eating garbage and started moving my body like it's made to do. Kind of frustrating.

I usually respond with.
"No I think you're gaining "
 
3 miles tonight.... Not bad for an old fat boy.. It's been 7 years since I've done any exercise and let's just say I was in shape only it was round

I was just complaining about this the other day. Somehow fit shaming is still completely acceptable in a time where virtually anything else that could hurt someone's feelings is frowned on.

It really is ridiculous. People who take care of themselves have become the ones who aren't "normal". That's messed up.
