What a nasty thing to say!! You know, so many girls on here are made to feel badly by their doctors about weighing too much, and yours doesn't even have the decency to say "way to go, that's so great that you were able to lose that much before you got pregnant, here's how it will benefit the pregnancy, etc..." Doesn't she know that pregnant women often have enough body issues without some old bat making totally rude comments? I would have been very upset

I would be upset too.

What a cow. I would most definitely make a complaint. Well done for losing all that weight btw

Wow, how rude!!! I'd most certainly be offended, and complaining about her officially!

However, well done on the weight loss! I'm sure you look great for it.

Honesty, id complain and see if u can get a different MW, she had no right to say what she was, unless she was congratulating u on the weight loss, and clearly that was not the case. She should have been professional and kept her quacker shut.

I would have been very offended. That has nothing to do with your pregnancy and doesn't she think that hmmm maybe this woman is sensitive about this area of her body? Freakin idiot docs out there..

Absolutely, outrageous. I would complain.

If you have some looser skin it is a symbol of how hard you worked and how well you did to lose weight and to me that is beautiful. You should be proud.

oh hunny i know how you feel i really do i lost 10stone and went from a size 24 to a 16 (UK) and i do have loose skin around my tummy i am so self conscious about it and if a medical "professional" said that to me about mine i think i would have punched her then left in tears and i also have done hours and hours a week of gym, swimming and pole dancing (pole dancing helps the most) to get rid of it but it just wont go i guess the skin has just been stretched too far and wont go back. but well done you for loosing all the weight that is the important thing and i bet you look amazing for it xxx
