I find it really interesting how people think just because you are thin that they can ask you really personal (and accusing) things about your weight and that it won't be offensive! I am between 50-55kg & 168cm and I get random comments aswell. People who don't know me just assume I don't eat or overexercise and it can be hurtful sometimes! I eat just as much as DH for dinner and I haven't exercised for months!

The only thoughts that matter are your own though - sounds like lots of girls here know you in person and you look perfect to them

Im same as you monkey float between 50-55kg and 168cm dont exercise and eat almost as much as my much taller than me 100kg DP. My BMI i has always been under and docs have never said anything (dunno what it is now).

My grandparents always comment on my weight and tell me to eat more but people who see how much i eat are generally pretty surprised.

I got the most comments after i had josh as i pretty much walked out of the hospital as i was before i got preg with him but i figured the nasty ones were just jealousy. My friend got asked if Josh was mine or my sisters at his gym class and when she said mine the chic was like that cant be possible he is such a big boy (takes after his dad)

Just take the nasty comments as jealous and be flattered by the good ones it will save you the stress!!

I have exactly the same issue it's so annoying especially as we are wanting to ttc. I am 1.70cm tall and weigh between 46-48.5 kgs so my bmi is around 16.9 it is so frustrating. I'm trying everything to get my weight up, i have slowed down breastfeeding heaps down to 2 feeds a day and still a couple of feeds in the night. My af has still not returned though and ds is now 16months old

I wouldn't worry to much about the af DaniB, mine didn't come back until I dropped all Dom's feeds, thats just the way it goes sometimes.

Wow, ok yes i have heard that before, sometimes it doesn't return at all until baby is weaned. I'm hoping to gain some weight and hopefully that might help it come back. As it looks like ds will be feeding forever at this point.

I have the exact same problem.
I am 167cm and about 44kg. That is the heaviest I have ever been (apart from being pregnant). I cant do anything about it and I eat heaps. Probalby eat too much junk food though

I find it so rude that people think they can ask you about your weight and if you have something wrong with you. I see people talking about me when I'm out too, like making comments to their friend. I can even hear them sometimes. One time someone was commenting on my size and mum said really loud, Those girls are talking about you. It was so embarrassing!

And I agree with clothes getting bigger. And some shops dont even stock size 6!
I also look about 20 weeks pregnant sometimes, and am now only feeding on one side so am really lopsided and its really obvious

Sorry to add to the rant. Im just glad Im not the only one with this problem
