    stop complain and start losing weight again , so you can prove them wrong . Those girls should be your motivation not a reason to complain here .

    Move your *kitten* now and loose another 60lbs :)
  • PLEASE don't give up! You look so good and deserve to do this for YOURSELF. You're beautiful, keep going! :flowerforyou:

    I see a tremendous difference in your look from 330 down to your current weight. Please do not let other people's insensitivity and rude behavior prevent you from continuing to make a difference in your health and fitness. You are a beautiful person, whether those bozos can see it or not.

    It took a lot of effort and determination to achieve what you have achieved. Carry on. Ignore the idiots and find support where you can. Feel free to add me as a pal.

    I hear ya! People give me their seats in the metro and the bus because they think I'm pregnant. I gave birth 2 and a half years ago :sad:

    You're looking great. Keep going and don't mind them. Work out with headphones. Weight can be lost by working out. Stupidity can't. so YAY YOU!

    It's not always easy to ignore what others say. I have always worn bigger shirts and was once told by someone giving aways samples that I would need the product when I had my little one. I was far from being pregnant. Don't let what they say get to you. Remember that you are doing this for yourself and nobody else. Keep up the good work you look fabulous.

    Fu(k them. You've come this far, KEEP GOING. Don't let snobby b*tches get you down. Don't worry about what anyone else says. Keep doing what you're doing because it's obviously working. You'll be so happy when you reach your goal and know that you didn't let anyone stop you. The only person who can stop you is you. Now go get back on the fu(king treadmill and lift some weights.
  • Don't you dare let those *****es get away with that. Next time something like that happens in your gym you complain to management that you were abused by other clients. Say it's not ok for you to be bullied in their establishment.

    And do NOT give up! You look great.

    Keep going, let this make you even more determined. Next time someone says something mean to you about weight tell them you're losing weight all the time and let them know it's a shame that being stupid and rude isn't so simple to fix.

    You have come a long way girl! And I honestly think that the closer you are to your goal- the more the haters will hate. Just let them bring it on. The super skinny girls criticize each other all the time- that one has smaller boobs, that one has a flat butt, look at those pants - blah blah blah. When you were over 300 pounds - they were not even looking. People like to ignore us when we are too heavy. Now you are in their vision and the closer you get to them the more insults you will hear. Take it as a compliment and think- NOW I AM COMPETITION!

    I'm proud of you for loosing all that weight. Don't give up! When I lost 50 lbs many years ago, I was feeling great and proud of myself, until my mother told me that she hope I didn't got rid of all my clothes because I would for sure need it again. It was like she gave me a slap in the face and was discourage and gain 20 lbs back. It's not easy, but you have to do it for yourself. Since I don't pay attention to what people think of me, I've been able to lose that 20 lbs and another 20 lbs more since I'm on My Fitness Pal. :) Keep up the good work!

    First, congrats on the 65 lbs. Second, you are beautiful, don't listen to them. Third, you now look approachable, and this is probably why you are now getting the unwanted contact from others. As for the two in the gym, ignore them because if they are not dedicated to a gym and eating program (and clearly they are not if they have time to make fun of others), they will eventually be the fat one who others laugh at. Ignore them.

    Get back in the gym and do your thing. You are worth it.

    I dont know what to do... I feel like its pointless to continue.

    People like that are not worth your time.

    Your path is your own.

    Five pages (so far) of people are very proud of you!

    You are doing great!

    You look amazing!! Really excellent work! Think of how much this is helping your health and your life and making sure you will continue to have this excellent mobility for a long time to come.

    I'm really sorry that there are some awful people in this world and young people that have not been taught well that treat heavier people badly. They are wrong!

    But, please don't let them stop you now. Look how much you have done and accomplished. Keep going. It can only get better. Don't go back.

    In life we tend to hear the bad things people say to us the loudest, repeating back at us over and over. It's easier to forget the good things people say to us. The bad things can sometimes reinforce our own low self-worth. And sometimes we have trouble believing and trusting the good things. Whatever size you are, there will always be nasty people that can find a way to try and make you feel small or less than. But, they are less than. Why would they need to push someone else down? What is wrong with them should really be the question. Don't let them make you bitter. There are some awful people in this world. But, there are a lot of wonderful people. Sometimes the awful people are very loud. And sometimes the kinder people are quiet, or shy, or they just simply mind their own business, they aren't thinking anything about you so you don't hear anything from them.

    Wow--all of that sounds horrible. I haven't experienced such things, but I would just chalk it up to some people being mean, insensitive, jealous, and all sorts of things that you can't control. You really look fantastic. Please don't give up. Find more supportive people.

    wow. i mean...just WOW. you totally got hit with *kitten* wagon there.

    people suck. they suck all the time, and out in the open and everything. they are stupid, moronic, hurtful, ignorant d*ckbags who should learn to keep their stupid, moronic, ignorant d*ckbag mouths shut.

    they won't, though. they'll keep saying mean, stupid, hurtful things...if not to you, then to other people. The best you can do is to realize that they have soul cancer, and go say something nice and wonderful to someone else. Balance out their negative vibes with your own positive ones and do your best to not let them get to you.

    i know it hurts, but i think that you are ADORABLE.

    ^^ All of THIS right here. especially the parts with the asterisk in it. Anyway, the worst thing you could have done was not return. Best thing to do is to do what you want to do (whatever that goal is).

    Youve made such great progress already. If it were me personally I would think about that moment every single time I thought about straying from the path that I needed to be on, and every single time that I wanted to push harder but wound up stopping.

    Everyone else in here cant possible be wrong!...Dont give up!!!

    You will reach your goal weight, but they will be horrible bit**es forever!!

    As Judge Judy says: "Beauty fades, but stupid is forever"

    You have done amazing... keep it up and you CAN do it!!

    I know your feelings were hurt by SCUM; and I am not going to give them my energy by way of responding about them.

    My plea to you is take your rightful place back at the gym and get back on course.

    You are very beautiful not just outside but inside. It took courage to share this with us.

    It's time to stand tall. With all this support and encouragement you are in receipt of on this post, you have the push you need to move forward.

    Hugs to you.

    First of all.... you look amazing. You have done an incredible job. You should be very very proud of yourself.

    Secondly, don't let those stupid bi***** get to you. I can't believe how ignorant and cruel some people can be.

    Oh, honey, it is an extremely sad and insecure person who needs to put someone else down to feel good about him or herself, which is what those girls did to you.

    You have made incredible progress and you should be so proud of that! Get back to the gym and tune those Bs out. What they did was about them, not you. Feel sorry for them.

    I would've laughed in that girl's face! You can run and be heavier! I had ladies much heavier than me beat me in all the races I've run so far. Don't let ignorant people get you down. And as far as mean kids, I tell them that their parents are doing a horrible job raising them if that is how they talk and they should be ashamed. Now kids are kids an need to be taught that if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all. Obviously this new generation didn't watch Bambi! :laugh: :wink:

    The most important thing is that you're trying to be healthy so you will live a long, happy life. I've known many skinny girls who didn't have to try to be skinny, got pregnant, and gained A TON of weight and have no clue how to have a balanced diet. We who have to WORK for it have a better appreciation of other people and learning to eat well.

    Never give up.
  • Don't let others get you down PLEASE!!! You're doing an amazing job & are such an inspiration to me... I'm early in my journey to loose 105lbs. :) You look awesome, so get some tough skin & use any insult you encounter to fuel your motivation... knowing that you're working on improving yourself.... & they're clearly not.... (as for kids.... they just don't know better usually... I run into the same with adults with developmental disabilities. I have one guy who always asks me if I'm having a baby. Instead of getting hurt, I use it as a teaching moment & say "nope, there's no baby in there, that's where my cheeseburgers go when I eat too many" because he too needs to loose some weight, & cheeseburgers are his favorite food & he'd eat them for every meal if he had the option!) Take pride in your improved lifestyle & how you're feeling & what you have accomplished. For every negative comment.... I am positive that there are twenty other people who are impressed/want to compliment you, but don't want to hurt your feelings or something like that.

    Another thought... could this new attention you're getting be because when you were heavier you didn't put yourself out there as much? I know for me when I was heavy & down on myself, it took a lot to even get out of the house. I was feeling sluggish & embarassed about how I looked.

    Best of luck in your continued journey.... give it hell!!!

    If you stop now THEY win. Those *****es at the gym just are just that. Someone telling you not to sit in a chair because you might break it, nonesense. HATERs are gonna HATE. That is all that is. Don't let them stop you from your goal. Your stronger than that. People who fee they have the right to say what they want, usually have serious issues of their own which they mask it by being an asshat and douche bags. So keep going!!

    Wow you look amazing :)

    Work on your uppercut ;) Knock those bishes out! Surround yourself with people who love and support you, and eff the haters. There's always going to be someone who needs to make themselves feel better by putting other people down and it sucks that you're getting that (especially when you look great and are healthier and healthier every day!). But please continue your journey and be an inspiration to the many of us who can't wait to see you reach your goals! :)
  • First, Great Job on loosing 65lbs! Second, and this is easier said than done....don't let it get to you. I have lost 36lbs thus far and if someone was to say that to me, I would simply say and have said......check me out in 12 months. Get back on your plan and don't let it get to you.
