    Yes, I have had this problem with a few so-called female friends. Since I've lost 74lbs and still losing, since they have been *****y, off with me and not inviting me to nights out. It's like they preferred it when I was overweight, miserable and unconfident. As most of my friends are male, I've had a lot of positive attitudes towards my weight loss too.

    I haven't had anyone tell me they hate me but the other day when i mentioned working out my friend ask me if I had a reason, like I needed one.

    my own THERAPIST seemed to resent my weight loss!! she never said anything negative but I know her a long time, so I could tell she was thinking "i kind of hate you right now." It lasted a few weeks, I didn't take it personally... and then she started dropping pounds!

    I have had friends say "ugh you are losing so much weight I hate you" but I know that's just their way of acknowledging that I am being successful at something they find difficult, I don't sense any actual negativity.

    P

    People are much more comfortable being overweight when everyone else around them are the same.

    2/3 of adult Americans are overweight or obese. This group acceptance of everyone being fat is now sustaining our overweight nation

    One of the girls from the office was talking to me and said, "You know all the girls upstairs are hatin on you because you lost all this weight?" I was stunned,
    Bad enough they were talking behind your back. I'm thinking of the motivation of the girl making sure you found out they were talking behind your back?

    I've had a mix of reactions. Genuine compliments, backhanded compliments, rude comments, dismissive comments, concerns for my health, interest from people who are attempting their own transformation, and people who think I've gone too far. But let's face it. I win. LOL
