Did I have a good weekend....hmmmm? Well my sister in laws bridal shower was this weekend. It was lovely and she looked great and the food was wonderful. My only complaint however was when I left the table for one minute I walked in on a conversation about how much weight I had gained since I had given birth to S.
You would think they would stop and have the decency to start talking about celebrity rehab or the latest Paris Hilton scandal when they noticed me.
Nope.
They continued the conversation.
Well it is hard to loose weight while nursing. She still has such a pretty face. Shame though.
Well that just made my day. I already felt very bad about a terrible dye job I had received (Whats so hard about light brown people?) And sitting in on a weight conversation about me was just as much fun as having toddlers redecorate my new couch.
I got mad and proceeded to eat several rolls and desserts in retaliation.
That'll show em
(I am feeling pretty blue right now. I would be very pleased to receive any empty compliments you may have especially concerning my looks. I know you've never really seen me so improvising and lies are totally welcome. Thank you)

What's so fantastic about the blog world is---we don't need to SEE you to know you're beautiful. We're getting to know you from the inside out.
You are GORGEOUS! Sexy and beautiful and smart. I can tell it from your writing!
What's wrong with those people? They're just jealous. And rude. And they need to get their eyes checked.
"I may be fat, but you're ugly and I can diet."
Funny, I am feeling the fat too. I lost a ton of weight and used the weaning of DS as an excuse to stop dieting until I could really concentrate on dieting and not trying to figure out what to eat based on nursing. Yes, that is my excuse.
OH!
NO!
They Di'nt!
I have seen a picture of you, and sweet marie you are GORGEOUS!
Go to Wal-Mart today, it'll make you feel fabulous, like the prettiest girl in the world.
I promise.
LOL on the Walmart comment!
I would have gone into a sugar enduced rage.
My great aunt called me on my birthday 2 years ago and said this, "Have a wonderful birthday darling, just don't gain anymore weight."
Screw them!
my compliments are never empty. you are fabulous and i look forward to seeing you in my reader (don't worry, i ALWAYS click through) as often as you will grace me with your presence. poo-poo on those people. better to have fat on your ass than between your ears.
Suzie, I my not have actually "seen" you with my eys, but I have with my heart and I know you are a beautiful, funny, smart, and down right wonderful person. I agree with the Wal-Mart comment, go there and it will make you feel better.
:)
Their conversation certainly says a lot more about them than it does about you. Being rude is very ugly.
YOU, my dear, are not rude, and therefore, not ugly. See? It's all logic!
I still need your address. Email me at admccaffery at gmail
You will have a fantastic day! :)
First of all you can lose weight if ou want to or need to but how are they going to fix being ugly on the outside and inside. People like that are just ignorant. Give me their address. You are a beautiful mom and wife and woman of the world...
Wow.
I guess if you are "not fat" you are exempt from common curtousy and manners?
Bad form.
They must not have good manners. That's the only thing I can think of. Can someone offer them an etiquette class?
I'm so sorry. I am sure you are beautiful.
i agree with Kristen H. It will be sweet justice when they gain what they can't lose while you're sitting pretty and hottie hot. Honestly, how rude of them to be discussing not their own weight in the first place. The nerve.
I can honestly say that I have never seen you looking better!
They obviously haven't seen you the way we have. Thank you for brightening my days!
It's amazing what family and "family friends" think makes for appropriate conversation. The good news is that you are married and have two beautiful children. If you didn't, you'd probably be walking in on conversations about how they worry about you becoming an "old maid." It's always something!
Oh right - and even though I've never seen you, I just know that you're ravishing!
Hello,
I just found your blog today! How sad that adult women act like little girls :( You should of said "God doesn't like ugly" and walk away.
This happens more often than you think. A few years ago I went to my aunts funeral and some cousins that I have not seen in several years said "we were looking for a thin blond...what happened to you"?

I clicked through from A Wonderful, Crazy, Life...I am constantly struggling with my weight, it is so hard. I'm doing Weight Watchers now and actually enjoying it.
By the way, your ass looks great in those pants.
You know I feel a bond with you. Maybe it's because we both have children that lick inappropriate items and play in toilets. Regardless, I think you're fab!
I went through the same blue feeling you are experiencing when I came to the end of nursing my littlest. Luckily, I lost all the weight I had gained. Unfortunately, I lost it all from the boobage area. It's not always great to feel like a kid again!
Keep your spirits up! You're BEAUTIFUL!!
I can't believe you thought they were talking about you. You look fabulous with the new hair color and we all know how trim you stay from keeping up with the kids all day. You are what we all aspire to be. No way, luscious, they were not talking about our little Suzie. Hugs and Kisses, Sweetie.
p.s. Don't forget what Tyra said!!
Wow. I'm sorry your day was ruined. Sometimes people seriously surprise me. I know they shouldn't, but they do.
Wow. I'm sorry your day was ruined. Sometimes people seriously surprise me. I know they shouldn't, but they do.
I can't believe they did that.
Some people are idiots.
You know... when people feel the need to criticize others, it means they're unhappy. A happy person feels no need to put others down.
Some people are rude and should be ignored. Don't listen to what they have to say. To everything there is a season. Weight comes and goes, ugly stays and that is what they are.
Oh Good Lord! Are you kidding me? What is wrong with people?
My favorite comeback for an encounter like that is, "Well, I can lose weight, but you'll always be (insert favorite adjective here - ugly, stupid, bitchy, whiny, annoying, whatever floats your boat!)
Not very Christian of me, but hey...I'm only human.
How very rude! At least i have the decency to hold such conversations in private! (Though I imagine that's what people are saying about me, too. very sad. I think I'll have some more chips while I contemplate that...)
Sheesh...I think your friends are a little rude, but I am sure you look marvelous.
I could not believe how rude and mean that was of them. I've been there too and it still makes me angry what has been said to my face by my family about how I look. I think you are witty, funny and beautiful.
Just remember - you can diet and lose weight, and they'll still be catty bitches.
I'm sorry they did that to you. That's so hurtful. I would have stepped on their feet or something.
OMG, how awful and insensitive!
Its a good thing that you are so gorgeous after all and they had no idea what they were talking about.
You're more gorgeous with each passing day. Your fingers, especially. Those bitches, they might have little waists but they're awful in bed. WHORES. BAD WHORES. You're awesome, you're amazing, you're Queen of the Space Aliens. Men and androids bow before you, I am blinded by your beauty. I hope those big mean ladies get huge this season. Amen.
For the first time I have to agree with most of the proceeding comments. I have actually seen you in the flesh and you are even better then in photographs. gorgeous and groovy and sexy as all hell.
Cuz xx (rather peed off on your behalf.)
