edited December 21 in Motivation and Support
I just spent a few days in the hospital for an ongoing illness I'm battling. I log on & half of my friends are gone. I am ready to quit. I don't have many people backing me & now I have less. I don't know if I can keep doing this.

    hey! don't beat yourself up when you're already feeling low. you can do it, it seems like you already lost a lot of weight. focus on your success and be kind to yourself mentally. we're all just humans trying to be the best we can, don't give up!

    You're more than 50% of the way to your goal. Please don''t allow yourself to react emotionally to the actions of others - you're doing great! Their behavior does not have to dictate your own. Make some new friends (there are many of us available) and keep going - you're worth it!

    Quitting won't solve anything. For every friend that deleted you, you'll find two more.

    Forget them. They obviously weren't worth it. I always at least try to check in with someone if I see they haven't logged in for a few days or a week. But if it starts going on *months* without seeing any activity whatsoever on their account... then yeah, they go bye bye. Thankfully, there's been less than a handful that I've had to do that to. :)

    Don't worry. They've done you a favor. They've removed themselves and now you are left with the good ones.
    I'm sending you an add...
    Hang in there. Lots of support is here for you :)

    I completely agree. You are better off without them, and just like @gypsybree said you have lost 57 lbs. Keep ROCKING it!!! I am sorry about your illness, but it is awesome that you have pushed through and signed back on!! Feel free to add!! :) I am doing this for my fiance, and so when I become a teacher!!!

    DON'T give up! Who has the power over your health? YOU! The same goes with any power over your own life. Your body is the vehicle, you are its driver, you alone possess the manual, and no one else. Don't put that power in the hands of fairweather friends. If anything, your illness was a blessing; it purged your circle of people who you were better off without, anyway.

    Feel free to add me to your friend list. I don't respond to every post, but I try to respond to those who need it most. I can also help with any cooking/recipe troubleshooting (I'm a culinary arts grad).
  • Dont worry about them. I rarely log in. I have lacked motivation and the gumption. If they drop you just becasue of that, then they are better off without you. Add me. me:)
