Giving me hassles

[Bbox]

Lately I've been hassled about my weight (family and Friends). I use to weigh 97kg, I lost 17kg in just over a year. How do I get these people of my back because there is absolutely nothing wrong with my body weight?

 

I can understand they are not used to seeing me this skinny but I'm fit and healthy, why cant they see it?

 

Are there any other naysayers on the sport of cycling?

Let´s face it - cycling is not a "speedo" look sport...

 

Ignore them, stuff your face full of food at get togethers and see them in agony

I hear you. I lost 9kg in 6 months and I'm now where I want to be (maybe a k or do more). Everybody now says I'm too skinny. But 5 years ago when I was 20kg heavier then now they did not say I was too fat.

Were you on laxatives and Lettuce?

 

No, still eating like a horse...... I'm always on the bike though, Road, MTB and spinning

I also lost 20kg due to cycling. People that has'nt seen me for a couple of years are shocked the first time they see me, their first words are "You got skinny/jy het maer geword". I just laugh and say that I train a lot. Normaly gets them off my back.

I think it’s more a case of jealousy makes them nasty!

 

to them

 

I’ve lost 11kg since January and am now down to 72kg. I got told I was looking ‘gaunt’ (which I definitely am not – could still shed a kilo or two) – but I think the person who said it was not too successful at their own weight lost attempts…

Tell them the only reason you look thin is 'cos you hang around with fat people.

you guys perhaps have ur diet u used?

 

I am currently weighting about 92kg and am 1.84m tall...I want to lose about 14kg's and wight around 78kg - 80kg.

 

I started training this week more intense cycling about 52km per day Monday - Thursday and then weekend cycling about 100km

Don't worry with that schedule the weight will melt away without a diet. Just don't go overboard with the eating and drinking.
