Maybe it's me?

Well done on your weight loss so far .. feel free to add as we all need the encourgment , I can not gurantee i will give you this everyday BUT i will most days .. and lets face it some is better than none .. Keep going you will get there

Everyone wants you to fail because that is human nature. Fu$k 'em all. You can do it. And once you hit your goal weight, everyone will be watching you again, waiting patiently for you to fall off the wagon.

It's not you!
People don't like change and if they see you change for the better then they see the flaws in themselves and they don't want to be left behind.

You just keep doing what you are doing - cause it's obviously working and in the end you will prove them all wrong!

Feel free to add me as a friend - I'm on here most days and promise to write back to any message you send.

Wtg! Please add me as a friend, you have had incredible success and would love for some of that to rub off on me. I also have a supportive husband, however my friends are less excited by my new lifestyle. I need to be around others who can be happy and supportive , let's be friends

I post things and get 0 response sometimes too...but I just let it go. I try to be supportive of my friends on here but some of them don't reciprocate (sp?) so it makes it hard for me to keep wanting to support them if they don't support me. But again oh well.

I luckily have the support of my boyfriend and most definitely my parents. My parents introduced me to MFP and between the 3 of us (we call ourselves Team Thomas) we have lost 135 collectively. My boyfriend and I just had a garage sale and we had a lot of my parents too big clothes in there. Of course his mom had to tell me how dumb the idea was to get rid of those clothes because we will just need them again one day. I wanted to haul off and smack her. But my thought is if I keep around the too big clothes it does make it easier to go back to the old ways.

Keep your chin up and just remember if you need support there is always at least 1 person on here that will help you out!!

I've been going at this now for nearly 4 months. The support I am getting from my husband has been amazing. But that seems to be the only place I can find it. Everyone else from my mom and sister to friends and mother in law are really counting on me to fail. I've been using the My Fitness Pal ap on my IPhone for the last 3 and a half months and have lost 52lbs. But I really feel like in order to finish off these last 30lbs or so, I'm going to need support from people going through the same kind of thing I am. So I decided to try the social aspect of this and hope for some good friends!

The few friends I have made on here and contacted, no one seemed to write me back.

Maybe it's me? lol

These threads don't send a notice when people have commented back to you - for me it's hard to stay on top of a conversation. Make sure you become your own support system, everything more than that is just a bonus. You can do this, you've already made it over half of your journey. Don't let the lack of stranger support bring you to a halt. Hang in there gorgeous

Amazing job girl!!! Feel free to add me as a friend. Don't forget that misery loves company and because they feel bad for not taking care of themselves, they want to see you down at their level. TOO BAD FOR THEM! It's their problem my dear, not yours, you are doing a GREAT job with 52 pounds gone FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :flowerforyou:

I know how you feel--I feel dead alone on my goals and my plan sometimes. It's really hard to push on without family/friend support, but if you can, you're so much stronger than what you realize. I'm working on my last 30 to 50 pounds--and it's definitely hard. Keep it up!

I don't think so. You just have to find the people that are into getting healthy just as much as you are. I'll add you for more support.

I've lost 65 pounds and my two best friends and my husband have said absolutely NOTHING!! It's not like I need to hear it, I think it makes them look like idiots...and certainly not "friends"...I have had incredible support on MFP...I don't know what to think when people aren't supportive..I tend to agree that it must be jealousy..maybe they are unahppy with their own lives and don't want to see you being successful?? I wish you the best of luck! You have done a fantastic job so far!! Keep up the great work. :happy:
