My weight loss has nothing to do with your weight

But if you 'know I would kill to look like you', then you made it about me. No, your loss has nothing to do with my weight, and who I would kill to look like is none of your damned business, either.
I hope that was a quote from someone Otherwise the logic is a bit faulty. You do your thing and I'll do mine, and please don't assume everyone is just jealous of you. That's obnoxious as hell!
Lol I am not that full of myself believe me. It has been said to me. I don't believe people are jealous of me, what hurt is that because I am "thinner then they are" I have no right to be unhappy about my body.
I wondered if it was a quote

Edit: OK I think I understand now. These are directed at people who criticized you, right? Because I was wondering why you'd say that stuff to us.0

Been there, done that, and have had it said to me as well. Keep on trucking.
Once you are at your goal weight for awhile, the comments will die down, and people will go back to being normal around you.
This is my experience, anyways...0 -

You should have the balls to say this to who ever this was intended for. JS
Looking at pic, I do NOT see balls....so.....what should she do?:laugh:0 -
Some people may feel insecure around someone they perceive to be healthier or fitter than they are. I get ****y comments a lot. But at the end of the day, I don't care since it won't affect how I sleep at night. As long as I'm not living with the person, life is fine...0

Different people have different body types. Some lose easier or maintain easier. I agree that the rant should have been directed to the person that started it, but in a personal message that does not involve the rest of the community. I have obesity and heart disease on both sides of my family so I really have to watch it. I come on these threads to encourage others and offer my support. Some need it, some don't. I would just like to keep the nastiness out of the threads and be good to each other. I saw this kind of thing on the Discovery Channel threads and they were almost shut down when people started dropping off of the threads because of rudeness and threats. Let's all just play nice. Good luck to everyone who uses these threads and I look forward to more friendly advice and conversation. (-:0

Don't listen to this guy.
I'm actually very sensitive, frequently confused, and my feelings are easily hurt.
I'll try not to get scared...
...and will just hide over here in the corner...
...in the fetal position...
...sucking my thumb...
...sobbing inconsolably.0 -
That's exactly why I try to not even bring up my goals to anyone besides my husband anymore! There's no nice way to say "I don't really care about your opinion on this," especially to family or close friends!0

People are taking this as though you are speaking the them personally.
It's clear that you are speaking as if you are talking to that person that the rant was meant for.
People are just attacking you and being rude for no reason.
As for an actual response-- I completely understand how you feel. My own mother complains and rags on me for bettering myself, eating healthier, and getting into shape. Just because she is 200+ lbs and I am 140 lbs she thinks that since I already weigh so much less than HER that I have no reason to better myself and make myself happy with my health and my body. Your post took the words right out of my mouth that I would love to say to her every day. (We don't get along well anyways and that's a whole other history and story).0
