how to deal with tactless officemate?

11 pounds really is not all that much at all. I suspect you are just looking to be right back at your normal weight and her words hurt because you are not yet.It takes a year for your body to return to normal. Some women never go back to how they were before the baby. ll pounds is really not much at all. If I were you, I would continue to ignore her and please don't take her words to heart. You will lose that measly 11 pounds but will she lose her mean spirit and insensitivity? I think with a new baby you have much more important things to concern yourself over. I would look at her as someone that I don't want to get too close with and nothing more.

That is realy sad. Maybe she is jealous you are happy with a new baby? I would feel sorry for her and just know she must be unhappy to be so mean and rude to you. You should not feel bad..you gained weight for your baby's health and now you can lose it. Eleven pounds isn't so much ..shame on her :(

i wouldnt give much head to what she says. usually someone is mean because they are just jealous and being mean just makes them feel more powerful than they are,

Pay no attention. Perhaps she is jealous of you? Do not let it b other you.

Just ignore her. She is just jealous that right now you have an angel in your home.

Don't be bothered of your tactless office mate. Rejoice for you give birth to a healthy baby. Learn to love yourself. Appreciate your body as healthy body. Get rid with that tactless being. Remember you are not your body. You are more beyond your body. Want to lose few pounds. Get rid of sweets and colas. DO NOT DRINK WATER RIGHT AFTER MEAL. DRINK 1 -2 GLASSES OF WATER ( not cold water)UPON RISING . DRINK WATER 1 -2 GLASSES OF WATER 1 HOUR AFTER MEAL. Develop that healthy habit and you will see the amazing power of water once you take it in proper timing. START NOW!God Bless!

Don't be too sensitive. Accept it as it is and try to just make a joke out of it. Maybe your office mate don't mean to hurt you by saying so. or you could jokingly tell her, "e ano kung mataba, cute naman." (so what if i am fat, i am nonetheless cute). Maybe that will stop her .

Hi there, Welcome to MyLot! Congratulations on giving birth to a beautiful baby boy. Recently my aunt gave birth to a baby girl and she has been worrying about her weight so much that she has nearly given up eating. Her body needs nutrition so we force her to eat frequently. I think being conscious about your weight after pregnancy is natural. Just give your body some time to adjust back to normal and start eating a balanced diet. Regarding your co-worker, you don't need to think much about her. Let her say whatever she wants to...One day when she gets pregnant, she will realise how hard is it to actually maintain your weight after delivery. Ignore her remarks, i am sure you will come back to your normal shape once you start consuming balanced diet and doing exercises. Good Luck with your newly born! Happy MyLotting!
