  • Wow, guys. Thank you so much for your support. After calming down from the initial shock of finding out people were speaking about me that way, I just sat and thought about it and called my mom (what else is a girl to do in a situation like this, right?) and we talked it out and I 100% have decided to move on from people like this. "Don't let people live in your brain rent free" is what my she said. And it's 100% true. Like some of you so wisely put it - if I know I'm doing the right thing, there is no need for me to waste my time worrying about whether or not sad, pathetic, mean people approve.

    I am thinking they are just jelous. If this person was truly concerned, a true friend would come up front and talk to you about this no matter how difficult it may be.

    I agree with everyone that says it's jealousy. Feel proud with what you have accomplished and start working on toning. Perhaps, some muscle will show your "friend" just how wrong he/she is. I would not be surprised if it's really your roommate. You look great!! Tell her to look at Swoosie Kurtz. Now that is way too thin.

    Oh girl - I'm sorry this upset you. The truth is you can NEVER please everyone. NEVER. don't even try. Are you happy? Are you healthy? Then just smile, and say "gee, I'm sorry they feel that way. I'm feeling FABULOUS"

    If I were you I'd be smiling to myself and taking satisfaction in the fact that:

    1) They're jealous.

    2) Your success makes them angry at themselves for their own weakness and lack of self-discipline.

    3) If your friends are overweight, your success probably also makes them insecure in that you'll now be looked at as "the hot one" when you're hanging out with them, instead of just another "fat chick".

    As somebody else previously said, we've become such an obese nation that being fat is "the new normal". Don't be hurt by their remarks - take pride in the fact that they noticed you're not "normal" anymore!
