I hope DH isn't offended by this.
BIL and SIL are getting DH the Biggest Loser Wii game for Christmas as well as accessories for his "home gym" (didn't know we had a home gym but whatever). I would FREAK OUT if anyone ever got me workout/weight loss things for Christmas unless I specifically asked for them, so I'm not sure if I should warn DH ahead of time.
BIL and SIL are very healthy. The only snack they eat is unsalted pretzels. They also run a lot. I'm pretty sure they think DH and I are fat, lazy, pigs but we like to eat a cookie sometimes!
It's going to be such an interesting Christmas....
Re: I hope DH isn't offended by this.
Yeah I agree, unless someone asked for that kind of thing I would never get that as a gift. Its pretty offensive and kinda rude.
Maybe as a joint gift to a whole family would be ok, but picking one person to give it to is just kinda, meh!
Ditto!
I'd probably develop a complex or something if someone randomly gifted me weight loss-related items, but I'm sensitive about that subject.
Flip Flops... A really good friend (who is 5'2" and about the weight of a feather) gave me a subscription to a magazine-I think it's called MODE? where it's for women who are sized 14- and up. I was offended-and was a size 18 at the time... but I just let it go. I realized she meant well, but I could have sent her a magazine for short people, too...
Hope he takes it in stride!
OMG, who does that?
DH would never say it bothered him in front of people, but I have a feeling he's going to ask me if they're trying to tell him something.
P.S. - Is there such a thing as a magazine for short people?? I'm 5'0" and might be interested if there is!
This!
I'd be livid.
