    They are the people with the issues.

    You're doing something constructive. Keep on keeping on.

    Paula,

    This is my first day here at MFP. I'm just getting started on this journey. If you've lost 40 lbs (a BIG congratulations to you on that by the way), you're doing FANTASTIC!! Don't allow what ANYONE else says derail you.

    The world is full of ignorant, mean people. THEY are the ones that need help. Send them light and love and drop it!! You will feel better about it for not having let them get to you and for being the kinder person by wishing them well......Some day they will (most likely) be fighting the same battles that we are fighting today. Then they'll see how wrong, unfair, insensitive, mean etc., their comment to you was.

    Stay the course!! All the best to you!!

    Dont Worry about what other think. If you are making progress on your healthier lifestyle , Dont Quit. People will always find something negative to say about people , get encouragement from support positive people. STAY POSITIVE AND KEEP TRYING !

    Paula, you are doing something about it, you are out walking! Ignore any stupid dumb remarks you get and just do what you are doing so well.
    We are right behind you! X

    When I see someone walking or running or biking, regardless of their size I think "yeah, get it!"

    I don't understand why people have to be such pieces of *kitten* sometimes.

    Sorry that happened to you OP. :flowerforyou:

    I don't mind if someone says that I used to be fat, but if they say I am fat now (which really doesn't happen) I'd just tell them to go f*** themselves. I don't have any snarky response planned out.

    Consider the source. Anyone who'd yell that at a fellow human being doesn't deserve space on your mental hard drive.

    Do what you do for you. No one else gets a vote unless you give them one.

    Walk with headphones on so you can focus on positive stuff. Don't stop doing you no matter what, particularly some stranger.

    Next time, those mofos get the finger. Got it? They would yell something no matter what. Perfect illustration: one time I was walking with a friend in high school (we were a size 12 and a size 4 respectively) and some doofus yelled out his car that "You eat too much and you don't eat enough!"

    I see someone answered this: But you do need headphones and an mp3 player…if your not a techie do try to find someone to help out - dare to walk the same path & next time wear headphones.
    I used to get the opposite and guys would holler/whistle at me so I ranted to my aunt and lo and behold it stopped…significantly. I do not get cat calls with those things on and not too loud but a good listening volume..and ey you'll show them that you are LITERALLY not listening HEHE:flowerforyou:

    That says more about them than it does you! I bet they wouldn't say it to your face. Be proud of yourself, Mama. And hold your head high. People can be cruel. Don't even worry about it. You're awesome!

    So while you're a beautiful person full of goals and follow thru, who will a year or so from now, have achieved your goal, he will wake up on that same day, and on a good day for him, STILL be an *kitten*. Always and forever.
