[QUOTE="luceeloo, post: 474298, member: 78468"] I can understand why people are so cautious to tell people. I did tell people, and luckily my other half and family have taken it in their stride. The people I work with are a different matter. My department manager believes I did this to myself and obviously his solution to the problem is that I should lose weight...he came out with this gem whilst talking to another manager whilst I was in the room! Totally oblivious to the fact that I've lost 4 stones! He has changed the way that he both treats me and talks to me - it's like he has no time for me. Another young man in the office spouted off the other day about people "giving themselves diabetes". I didn't correct him, it's not worth it. However, if I could redo my time, I wouldn't mention a thing to them. [/QUOTE]
