Hi all,
I'm new to this community so I am not sure if this has been posted before or if I'm posting in the right section.
I had my gastric sleeve in July 2016.
28F. Height 5ft 0in

I receive constant comments at work, such as "you're wasting away!" "You're SO thin," "You've lost too much weight!" And so on and so forth. Every day at work, someone makes a comment about my weight and it makes me extremely uncomfortable. I even walked up to a desk one time and heard people talking about me. I get asked how I lost the weight and I meekly respond with "calorie counting and exercise."
I have kept my WLS private and I intend to keep it as such. Any one have any advice in how to respond to such comments?
Also in regards to privacy, I do not know what to say to my friends and family when they see I have only eaten a bite or two...I am very worried how to approach Holiday meals and explain to family why I am eating so little. I don't want people to think I have an eating disorder...thoughts, suggestions? I am at a complete loss!
