I must be dellusional about my weight.

I posted about the saleslady that thought my pants were about to fly off my body earlier this week.

Today H's GM comes in and says, "You've been eating an awful lot lately. Just be careful, you don't want to get huge. ::nods toward my belly::"

I only eat lunch here! I don't even snack at my desk but apparently in the last week I've started feeding at a trough.

I told H when he called and he says, "Don't let it bother you. We're still in the overjoyed about our baby stage, remember?"

Oh right! Back to being overjoyed. Bahaha. He's silly.

Even though I would be annoyed like you that is a cute response from your DH.  I've heard much worse from clueless men!!

and seriously MYOB GM!  What a jerk!

lol. I get that a lot, especially this time around. It's not really your weight. Your boobs are probably getting bigger, which makes your shirts fit differently. And you are bloated, which can give you a muffin top. So you don't have to gain a pound to look bigger.

This pregnancy, I have lost 3 pounds but I look significantly larger.

ETA: And, when you are pregnant, you can't eat in front of people without incurring some type of comment on gaining weight.

Uh....wow.  I'm so glad you are letting that roll off your back because if someone had said that to me... wow.  Good for your H too!!  He sounds like the type that will silently ensure his GM will be finding Jalapeno juice on the rim of his next cup of coffee in your honor.

Oh wait?  What is GM?  Damn the lingo!  Grandmother?  I was thinking General Manager (used to work in restaurants).  Maybe the jalapeno idea not so charming for the elderly...sorry about that.  Man I sound like an ass!

Hyfagal

Bahaha yes it's his grandmother. You don't sound like an ass. ; )

His whole family was overweight and over the last few years have worked together and they've all lost alot. Unfortunately that weightloss has turned them all into dieticians  so I get alot of unsolicited diet advice.

You really shouldn't feel like an ass, because I totally thought she meant general manager. I was like, What a freaking jerk! And how unprofessional! hahahaha! 

Grandmother. Got it!

I'm sorry.  That was really hurtful.  Does the GM know you're pregnant?  If so, its amazing what people think they can say to a woman just because they are pregnant.  If he doesn't know, then that is quite possibly the rudest thing I have ever heard.
