Whew and I thought I was weird....about 10 years ago I lost 70 lbs and did the bulk of the losing over the summer months when people were away on vacation, when they came back it was the same thing, I couldn't walk down the hall (also work in hospital) that someone I knew, even slightly would stop me and congratulate me. I never analyzed why it made me so self conscious but it really did.
People are starting to notice again and a few have said something, when they ask what I'm doing, I answer Atkins....you can see the wheels clicking away in their head and 90% of people have said a negative comment about Atkins.
I answer, "Well it works for me and right now that's all that matters to me".
Hard to understand why they'll give you a compliment one minute then shoot down your efforts in the next breath.
