Girls are catty?!?! Damn straight! We each want to be the queen bee of the group.

But back to the matter at hand. Next time you are with them, you tell your friends, "BadKitty says, 'Bite me!'" Silly witches.

One thought I did have about your last post is a bit in their defense, though; it is easier for people who haven't seen you in a while to notice a profound loss than it is for the people who see us every day to see it happen gradually. When my BF was losing weight last year slowly and I was seeing her every few days, I really didn't "see" it. Then we had a 4 week gap because of Thanksgiving/work/holiday stuff, and when I saw her the week before Christmas, I was like OMG you look amazing!! That sort of goes in reverse, too, when we start gaining weight; we don't notice it when our spouse puts on 10 pounds in a year because we see them everyday.

The ACE thing? I wondered if it was a change-up from ECA (ephedra/caffeine/aspirin stack). But like the ACE Kats was talking about, it isn't prescription. And bodybuilders (the people I have heard about who have the majority of success with that) definitely do lose fat when they use it for "cutting", but they also lift like crazy when they take it.

Anyway - your friends are idiots, and you are pretty, and you have done an amazing job, and their noses are out of joint that their pretty fat friend is now their pretty medium sized friend who is rapidly turning to slender. Just smile and pity them (and tell them what I said!).
