    I would totally post pictures, but I posted positively about his girlfriend and her amazing hard work.

    post just to add more inspiration then :) your body is amazing too!! that OT has totally inspired me, which i think was the OP'ers intention. i cant wait to have an amazing body to post pics of :)

    fine. I'll start - though, for the record, I had nothing, but positive things to say about Matt's gal before anyone decides to attack me.

    I would say you're pretty close.
  • Oh yeah. Well technically they don't report success threads per se. But I've read comments from users who have actually said they get so jealous reading success threads that they then try to find posts to get that person in trouble.

    MFP likes to pretend it doesn't exist. But it's funny how the list of banned users contains a whole lot of people who've reached their goals... guess it's just a crazy coincidence.

    true story, ive actually had people tell me the week my success story came out, that I stole someone else's story and they were going through all 5000 of my posts if they had to, to prove it.

    I were like WHA?? u so cray

    Point proven. And isn't it also odd that the two of us had success stories and we both have two strikes. Wonder how many strikes the "She looks like a man ewww gross!!" crowd has? None of them seem to have been barred from posting in the topic. But oh well. We're fit, can't take that away from us.

    Also I think I am now a ShoeWhoreWhore. Damn girl.

    Ha ha...just caught that last line!!

    :drinker: To everyone posting pics!!

    Also, I find it funny that this thread started negatively but is becoming super, incredibly awesome. Usually it's the other way around.

    ETA - maybe I spoke too soon. \/\/\/ *sigh*

    technically I have 5 but who's counting?

    oh wait.... they probably are :indifferent:

    i thought 3 strikes gets someone banned from the forum. you can get to 5?

    So many beautiful women, all with different body shapes/sizes. Although we may not all want to reach the same goal/aesthetic we should be able to appreciate the work that someone has put forth.

    I did read the original post. I thought Yo put in a lot of work and her results showed. I applaud her for reaching her goals.

    Personally, I have a different goal in mind. And I would never be able to do her diet, as someone else said, I like my treats. My goals are to run long distances and lose weight (and keep it off this time). I do not have any success pics, yet. I have found some body inspirations (on the cover of running magazines). If I was home, I could post those. Oh, and keep my butt. I like my butt. :laugh:

    Boo! How ridiculous?! Makes me not want to post a success story when it's my turn.

    If this thread teaches anything it's that you can't let jealous people ruin your success. They'll try, know that. But you just gotta brush it off and keep being awesome.

    i don't like the fake boobs. that's why. i said that about 50 times already.

    We know, and we all want you to shut up about it. Say it one more time and I'm gonna say all the things I don't like about your body 50 times.

    But we know you can't handle that. You think it's your right to repeatedly trash whatever you don't like in another person, but you certainly don't want to hear the same in return.



    You are not doing yourself any favors by continuing to post.

    i said it 50 times in answer to people asking me repeatedly. i didn't just say it 50 times.

    not to mention, this thread was made to call me out and now you tell me to shut up. seems a little hypocritical.

    i think the real problem here is that Valeriek thinks everything should be about her, what she likes, and what she can or cannot say. You are not the only hater sweetheart.. there are a million just like you (dozens on that thread who agreed with you too). From those bedroom eyes in your profile, it seems to me you are jealous, and want attention badly. just saying..

    *sigh* A certain someone is only posting here to bait people into flaming, get this thread locked, and get other people strikes. Please ignore her and keep up with the positivism. All the success pics here have been fantastic.

    Less lady-bashing and more awesome please!!

    Definitely do NOT post your success story until you are sure your skin is thick enough to handle the backlash. I CANNOT stress this ENOUGH.

    If you are bless your heart sensitive and shy, wait til youre a little more solid in your new body and sense of self before opening yourself up to the hate that is on these boards.

    I know everyone says that for every mean person there are 10 that have your back, but its that one person, the one that never posts publicly, that reads everything and stores it all up inside until they can open up a private message to you and unleash their self hatred on your unsuspecting spirit and THAT is the one that can break you and send you back into hiding if they catch you at a bad moment.

    yeah there are a million supportive people on this site, but for those suffering from FFGS, it only takes the one hate-filled mom on the couch.

    well, this thread was created as people were arguing with me in the other thread, SO it's a pretty safe assumption that i was one of the haters in mind sweetheart.

    what am i jealous of? strangers on the internet? yeah, not likely.

    Quoting because it's important. Don't fall into the trap. Just focus on the positive and amazing women in this thread.

    I know it's completely off topic but I have to confess to reading through Vjohn04's profile. Nearly two years ago my mum fell and crushed her L4- she couldn't even have surgery because her osteoporosis had made her spine like a block of cheese according to her surgeon. That is why I lift weights, so I can avoid osteoporosis. It's amazing that you were able to get back to the activities and level of fitness that you wanted to.
