    I hate to say this, but I was the jealous friend. My best friend lost a bit of weight and looks AMAZING! I guess I was just sick of seeing so many stick thin girls and didn't want her to be like them. I acted like such a b*tch it's so embarrasing haha.

    Then I got severely depressed and had to change into a healthier lifestyle, and I understand why she did it! It was mainly to feel better for herself. Now I try to motivate all my friends.

    Try saying something like "you're right- my body is different. I don't want to look like a fit 17 year old. I want to look like a fit mid 20's person. And, I think I'll be there when I hit my goal weight. And, I'd really appreciate your support. But if you can't give me that, let's just not talk about it. The bottom line is, that weight is healthy for me."

    You'll lose those last few pounds - I have no doubt! She's jealous and probably a little disappointed with herself, because you've been successful and she hasn't.

    When she says "you know your body is different right?" or "You know you might not ever be that size again right" "maybe your just not supposed to be that size anymore" . You say "keep watching me". Some people are just jealous and wants to shut your self esteem down because they have low self esteem. Don't let it! keep working and striving to your goals. Furthermore, TRUE friends are suppose to be supportive and encouraging. Maybe you should evaluate your friednship with her.
