Why are people so mean?

Sorry that he was so insensitive to say something like that to you! What a jerk. I hope your husband sets him straight!
I think you look good!

Don't let him own your victory! You look fabulous!

Some people just suck... and it sounds like your brother in law is the poster boy for that statement!! I checked out your pics, and OMG!!! You look A-MAZING!!! Tell him to stuff a sock in it!!! :bigsmile:

I agree with your friends - you look like a super model! I'm sure your bro-in-law is jealous! Just try not to listen to what "the Little" people think. Sounds like he hardly matters.

OMG I can't believe he said that. I just looked through your pics and you look AMAZING! 97 pounds is a HUGE accomplishment and he is an idiot. Let me guess, he has a few pounds he could lose? If so, he is jealous and is bitter toward other people who can get what they want through hard work and determination. If he is thin, then he is just an idiot.

Not that facebook fights are mature, but I think you should come back with something to make him look like the idiot he is. If he could stand to lose a few, tell him to put the cheeseburger down and get off the couch and maybe he could look as fabulous as you someday.

Oooooo Weeeee. Now you already know where Im ready to go. :noway:


WHY?? I mean WHY break someone down who has invested their entire being on building themselves back up? Are you really that cruel? Do all your friends and family have to live up to your standards and what you or perhaps society sees as accurate or acceptable? Is the notion of allowing someone to have their own thoughts or feelings in regards to THEIR OWN self image just unheard of? Especially one who is still in transition, one who is still working towards the end result or final product. Cut a ***** some slack, DAMN. ( I mean ***** my love in the most dearest of ways, I swear to you :flowerforyou: )

Girl you already know yourself and I see eye to eye. You are an inspiration to say the least. Continue to do and be what is acceptable to you and yours. I appreciate you every single day....and that is not an exaggeration. Holla back HATERS.

I'm just sayin...:indifferent:

Hold your head up high! You have everything to be proud of and you look wonderful...(I went and took a peek at your pictures from before and now)...You look beautiful!! ...Look at all the hard work you put into meeting your goal..I am so sorry that your Brother in law had to be so darn stupid to post something like that..If i was you I would send him a message and let him know what you have put into this journey and let him know that if he does not have anything nice or positive to say that you would prefer not to hear his comments! I sure would not set back and let him get by with making a comment like that..I know some will probley say to just ignore him..but he sounds like the type of person that you just need to put in there place..he will either respect what you say or he will get pissed..his choice..But to you keep up the great work and keep a smile on that beautiful face! Congrats to you also for achiving your goal!

WOW! I am so sorry dear, I would be hurt to. But you know what you look good! You have done such a GREAT job loosing weight! You look great! Don't let him run on your parade! He is just jealous cause he doesn't have the power to suceed at something so hard! It really just sounds like jealousy to me!

He must hang out with some pretty good looking crackheads then. You look GREAT! don't let an idiot/loser like him get you down!

Just got the same comment today... I lost 16 pounds & now I am a Crack head to most people SMH!! F*** them girl you look great,Keep up the wonderful work!!!

I cant believe it. I'm so freaking mad!!!! I have reached my goal. My self esteam is finally a little above low and then I post pictures on facebook of me and my children and this is the response i get from my brother in law......

"you are losin way too much weight fern. lookin a little rough. or as we say up north,..... LOOKIN LIKE A CRACK HEAD. Eat a damn sandwich lady. Some of us are meant to have some meat on us Lol. Im suprised your hubby aint force fed you yet."


ARE YOU 'EFEN KIDDING ME!!!!!!

I have to admit it hurt my feelings and I got a little teary eyed....This was so much hard work and for someone to tell me I look "rough" or like a "crack head"

I know I am suppose to not care cause he is an idiot but it doesnt take the sting away.....

You are a hottie and he is just mad cause he can't have you. Screw the loser. Better yet, pray for him that he gets some self confidence and grows up. You are beautiful and amazing darling.

You look fabulous and worked hard to get there -don't let anyone take that from you! Ignore his lame comments. He needs to grow up.

You look absolutely hot, and your hubby is one lucky guy! I can see why you married the one with taste and not the BIL!

Omg!! your brother in law is an idiot!! You look Great!! I have 87lbs to lose and have been overweight my whole life and seeing your before and after pictures and know you did that, gives me hope that i can do that to. So thank you for sharing you story here:)

I think he just sounds like an outright idiot. *shrug* If he does NOT have an IQ below 100, then he's just outright hateful. Either way, don't you let his words bother you for a moment longer, because no one can know what this struggle has been like for you, and the fact is, most people will never do what you have done... and that's something no one, especially hateful idiots, can ever take away from you.
