    Just a few things..you do not need to hear it from other people we are trained to think accepting ourselves is based on what feedback other people give..the truth is hardly anyone even cares enough to mention good things anymore...your happy with your progress you dont need anyone else to verify your headed in the right direction or that you look different....secondly you didnt mention how often you work out that may play a big factor in your weight loss as well...personally I shoot for 6 days a week no less than 60minutes of Cardio...

    stop seeking the approval of others..in all honesty people are so busy with their own issues and day to day life they really dont have time or even the energy to notice things..it doesnt mean they dont mean well or wouldnt wish you well

    Sorry that you are having such a rotten day. Maybe your friend gave you the pants hoping that you still had to wear them to make her feel better about her size. (just a thought) I know its not nice but I have found that some people dont like others to better themselves because it makes them feel even worse about themselves. I use this as motivation to do even better! It is like an obstical can you resist the temtations given by those around you?
    I hope that you feel better, you are doing a great job, and I am sure that some one very soon will let you know about good you are looking too!

    Don't let it get to you, your freind is probably just jelous about your great results. You just have to remember you are doing this for you and no one else. Keep your chin up and your freind will come around.:flowerforyou:

    it takes awhile for people to decide to say anything. just now people are starting to give me compliments, and I wish they would more often, but I just have to be happy with what I see in the mirror.

    your friend will either come around, or she won't. that sounds simple, but you are only capable of changing you. she will if/when she decides to. Don't let her get you down. I don't think she was being mean when she gave you the size 14s. My sister gives me hand me downs all the time and some fit, and some don't. all kinds of makers have different sizing, in some clothes, I am 2-3 sizes different than others.

    hang in there. we are always here to listen to your venting, and then cheer you up:flowerforyou:

    just keep plugging along remember your doing this for other reasons ..not only what the scale shows...I would give her the jeans back and say oh these dont fit thank you but I wear a size 10..hehe I love telling people "oh I dont eat that stuff anymore or oh I cant fit that size"

    I would need to vent right along with you!! I have the same issue with my BF. She trys to tell me all the reasons why she doesnt do what Im doing and trys to tell me she is happy with herself the way she is. Then at times she will make comment or ask questions like who am i trying to impress. if i happen to mention I felt guilty for not completley an excersize she tells me Im funny. There are times she makes comments and I know she is trying to discourage me and bring me down with her. I know she is not happy or she would not do this to someone she truly cared about!!! It is soo hard but we have to stay strong we do not need their aproval. I know we would like the support from them but at this time they are so miserable they cant supply that to us. I know what I am doing is for me and that I am becoming healthier and thats an awesome feeling. I have had to reduce the amount of time I am around her to stay away from the neg. Stay Positive your doing great and Im sure you look great!!! Email me if you ever need extra support!!

    my bf she doen't say anything neg. but i know she's not happy with herself we have and long conersation's about lossing weight and and one point she would go walking with me 3 days a week but that stoped when i moved further away from her so we don't walk together anymore but she still thinks it's easier to take pills or diet drink and eat what she want's to a point
    so i gues when she's ready to loose the weight and keep it off she will talk to me more about how im doing it ...
