    You sound like you need a job or a therapist because you're living in a fantasy land where you think anyone gives a ****. They don't. You're not famous, you're not a celebrity. Anyone who has that much time to add "thousands" of people is probably living off the taxpayers.

    I do kinda get where she's coming from, because there's been times I've felt overwhelmed when I feel like I'm just muddling my way through this, and people keep asking me questions on what they should eat, what they should do, etc. And I find it absolutely ridiculous that they ask me because I'm a nobody who hasn't accomplished much.

    If you feel overwhelmed simply tell them, "Honestly, I'd love to help, but you'd be better off asking this on the forum where you'd get a variety of opinions from people with more knowledge than I have."

    Not sure if you meant to come across as strongly as you did.

    I've been here a while and I've never seen you, nice to meet you.

    If you want real advice, keep your friends list small, and don't ask for friends. I only have a few friends I've picked up along the way. We are all at different points in our journey and I support them when they are struggling and give them fluffs and oats on the back when they make a goal. I don't think any of them expect me to come and plan their meals and weigh out their food.

    This is the Internet, and while I've met some of my best friends on the Internet, everyone on the Internet is not responsible for how I feel about myself or what my success in any area of my life is.

    1) (and I'm saying this because of your claim of fame) Who are you? I've been here for 1.5 years and don't recall you.

    Yah, I've been on here for a year daily.... no recollection of you at all, and I get the feeling you are someone I would remember.

    This thread is funny. Very.

    Hiya- you have completed a big step in your life losing the weight. Its time to get on to other things and those people that you helped... that hasn't changed.... you helped them. They have to find their own path in their own way too.

    Move on...enjoy what new chapter in your life you have worked hard for.

    Personally, I keep as many followers as I can, as I know that they could eventually come in handy in my quest for world domination.

    First of all, congratulations on your amazing progress! I think it would be helpful to view your connections as "friends" as opposed to "followers". Calling people "followers" is incredibly condescending and is indicative of a relationship in which you are expecting to receive more than you're willing to give.

    It will also be helpful for you to take a step back and figure out what you really want out of all of this. Are you looking for notoriety or support? I would recommend letting go of the other accounts and sending personal messages to those who have supported you--letting them know of your decision to leave, thanking them for their support, and asking them to stay in touch. Once you have done so, simply delete the accounts you no longer wish to keep.

    Contrary to popular opinion, there isn't always strength in numbers. The quality of the company you keep is what truly matters.

    Try deleting your account. I'm pretty sure the rest of us will live.

    What? Just delete the people you don't connect with and keep the rest. I'm not sure what the problem is here.

    This reminds me of a Soundgarden song I heard once. I don't remember the lyrics exactly, but it's something like,

    I don't think she has any problem other than being so desperate for attention and acknowledgement that she felt the need to make a post, making out she is some sort of holy grail of weight loss that everyone has been dipping their tongues into.
    I can see right through posts like this.
