On my planet the adage is: "Don't air your dirty linen in public"
While I wouldn't dream of considering Weight Watchers membership "dirty linen" -- far from it -- I do think it was out of line to disclose the information on someone else's behalf, even if the someone else talked openly about it.

The big secret is safe with me. It is just beyond me that her fiance had to act like this was a big secret. I will not tell anybody and it just never ever occured to me that somebody would be mortified about trying to better there health and eating habits Clearly I simply don't get it. AGAIN THE SECRET IS SAFE WITH ME
Ok so I said out loud that somebody was going to weight watchers I didn't know this was such a huge stinking secret since I tell everybody I attend AA with my husband it is clear that my boundries are far different Is this normal or what? This person does seem very strange a lot but I just wonder sometimes if it is just because I don't care for this person or what....we are on way different planets it seems
You say you and hubby attend AA meetings? Then you should be familar with one of their most famous and important rules: "What you say here, what you hear here, let st stay here when you leave here. Here Here!"
So yeah, you were out of line with your disclosure of another person's weight issues. You should have learned to respect confidentiality by now.

Ok I guess I am not making myself clear. My boss told me that his fiance goes to weait watchers and then told me not to tell anybody. I have told nobody nobody on this earth that she goes to weight watchers. It is MY BOSS that told the secret to ME! The secret has STOPPED WITH ME. I just am confused that he would even make it a secret. I guess he was wrong to spill the beans on HIS FIANCE. I don't even like the woman let alone want to marry her.....

You overstepped, so apologize sincerely for your transgression. Then, tell the person that you are very proud of his/her efforts and progress.

This is confusing because in your first post you said you HAD.

The last phrase in bold seems right.
Don't worry about it but when you post on a forum people can only go by what you post.

Sorry I misunderstood. Your boss overstepped and should apologize to his fiance for his transgression, but I don't suggest you should be the one to tell him that.
UGH....Its not like a secret the person is fat. They are fine with rolling that all around but they won't say they are doing something about it? That is just a little insane. Its not like AA or like they are even using drugs to diet for crying out loud etc. I think you need to just tell them to grow up. If it had to be some super top secret they should not of told anyone. Sounds like a child's attitude. "ooh i am gonna keep my diet a secret because no on will ever know..." LOL
I think weight loss efforts are more successful when we choose to surround ourselves with support, but the operative word is choose. I am the one who gets to decide who is part of my support team. It is wrong to reveal something so personal about someone.
