laughed at,at work!!!

After Christmas I had made the decision to become heathy and fit. I have a 5 yr who had asked me why I was so tired all the time and why I couldnt play with her. It broke my heart!!! I was 215pds and could barely make it up the stairs without loosing my breath. I started a low carb diet and got down to 200pds but I realized I couldnt live that way and it wasnt the best for my health. So I started trying to eat healthy but struggled, untill I was told about mpf. I am now in full control and feel better then I have ever felt. I have also decided that its me who matters and not what others think about me!! Im a receptionist and cannot walk to far from my desk. So I started walking laps around the office where I could here my phone. People laughed and didnt understand but I didnt stop. I had this idea that I would bring my exercise ball to work and sit on it to help tone my core and help with my posture. I brought it in and started sitting on it. Everyone who walked past my chair would laugh or make crude comment, I just laughed with them. Then I started to get comments like thats a good idea and some of the other ladies in the office are bringing theirs in. Who got the last laugh:laugh: . I am just proud of myself I weighed my self and im at 190pds and know that im not done!! Thanks to everyone who posts I read everyday and have learned soo much and its helped to be educated!!!!

Wow, I find that so inspiring! I can't believe some people could be so cruel, but I am amazed that you ignored them and kept at it! Seriously, it's hard not to give in and let others put us down! I'm proud of you!

You keep up the good work. I can't stand people who laugh at the expense of others.:noway: Thats not cool. I have also started walking around the office at lunch and thats how I got over my plateau. Im dropping weight again. It helps, they are just jealous.


You rock and don't let others get you down.:flowerforyou:

That's fantastic! I really hate when people are just so rude. Good for you for showing them that their pettiness doesn't matter to you and that only what YOU think is important! :flowerforyou:

I never would have stuck it out under those circumstances - good for you!
The more malicious people can be, the better it makes you feel to get the last laugh in. It is sad that people have to be like that, though.

Good for you! Those who made fun were deep down probably jealous of your determination & commitment.

We cannot control what other people do, we can only control how we react to it. You reacted appropriately and well, good job. :happy:

Wow, that was an inspiring story. I really like the ball thing. I may just have to do that. My company has a fitness center and we have aerobic trainers that give classes 3 times a week so at least I don't have to go very far to grab one of those balls.....(ok so that didn't sound righ...:noway: ) but I'm sure you all got a good laugh!

Keep up the great work, you are doing fantastic!!!!!!!!!

that's fantastic that you stayed with your conviction. so many times we do/don't do things because of what other people think. great job inspiring others.
