Today, I proudly told my family I lost 15 pounds. My dad looked me up and down and said, "Well, you've got a looooong way to go." FML

That's so good! Congratulations to you. It's hard work- (I've currently lost 42 kilos) but it's worth it in the long run. I wouldn't worry about the comment. Just be proud of what you have achieved so far.

Just remember that you're doing this for yourself and not to impress him. Congrats though!

He's right. It takes a few weeks to lose 15 lbs but you could get that weight back in a weekend. Good luck

As a perpetually skinny guy I dont know what you've been through... but Great job non the less!

Losing weight is a big challenge. Even just 5 pounds can be a lot for some people. Congratulations on losing that much weight though, you're dads probably just mad he can't do the same

those fifteen pounds lost have likely already improved your insulin sensitivity and fatty acid storage so ignore him and be proud and keep working toward your health goals

Dont think of that as him degrading you and take it as motivation. Keep working towards your goal

It would take some serious doublethink to take his comment as a motivating one.

Wow. 15 pounds is quite a bit! Don't let your dad get you down! Congrats and I wish you good luck in your weight loss!

Well done OP! Don't listen to your Dad, whilst you can diet and exercise to feel good about yourself, he's stuck with being a bitter old fart.
