DON'T READ IT.
I was going to leave, but because of some FANTASTIC people, and you know who I am talking about, talked me into staying. I am not going to say what I feel right now because I want to make sure I say it the right way and not the wrong way.
But I am going to say this.....
14 messages calling me two faced and tell me that I do not practice what I preach-that is the reason I was leaving. I don't need that s*%# from anybody. And what gets me, you can turn around and ask me to add you as a friend. Please.
Read my profile and tell me how I am two faced. If you are confused, go and read the I had to get this of my chest.
I am also going to add that I will say what I feel and because of that, I helped one girl choose not to fast. She is 18 and she was going to take the wrong path. Now she is not.
So if you don't like the post-don't read it- and if you are tired of the post then quit responding to it. If you don't like what people say-move on and go on with your life. That is something that I learned here today.
I have far too many friends here to let a few of you get me to quit.
I am not a quitter and I will be here until the end. I have 45 friends that I made a commitment to, and that is what I am going to do.
For all of you that sent messages and support, I am back. Thank you so much, and I will not let you down.
You guys are awesome.
Now Joanna stop making me cry!
Love you guys and thank you again.,
Renee

I said more than I wanted to, so there won't be one in the morning like I said there would be.

    I'm glad you're not leaving, you post so much helpful information the message board would be at a loss without you.

    Just tell whoever is sending you messages that we're all not in high school anymore and to get the *kitten* over herself :P

    please don't take this the wrong way...


    why would you leave because of what people say to you or how they feel about you...like you said yourself....you are here to be heathy ....don't let those people bother you...that goes for everybody....

    i personally love reading everything you write....i enjoy alot of what people write....you all have been a true inspiration to me and it really makes me wanna lose the weight for ME, my family, and to look sexy....lets face it we are women and we love to feel sexy...i know just by working out and loing the 7lbs so far i already feel sexier...i don't have to be a size 0 to feel that way...i just have to feel better about myself...and i do ...just by being here with all of you...knowing i am not the only one that is goin the long road to being heathy....

    i guess what i am truely trieng to say is...THANK YOU ALL...for bing my support and everyone elses....

    p.s. don't let the little things get to us...we are here for the big picture

    I agree. I don't konw you but you are a strong person and you should not take other peoples crap (without giving it back 10 times worse) I am glad you didn't let them win like the othe member said (it was age1389 I think) I have a bad memory. You are an awsome human being and I look forward to continue to read your posts.

    Your posts are great and you are a positive motivating force on MFP.

    I am so sorry to hear that there has been negativity on the site directed towards anyone. I was tempted to go and read every recent post but decided why feed into the negativity. This site is wonderful and so are all of you who choose to be here. Lets stay strong and conquer the negativity by continuing to reinforce each others resolve with kindness, sincerity and positive words.

    I suspect that any negativity was really an attempt by that to person to hang on to bad habits or lose weight in an unhealthy way. We are all strong enough to help one another in moments of weakness and doubt without losing ourselves or our humanity.

    Glad you are staying :flowerforyou:

    I am glad you decided to stay as, like many said the positive attributes of this site way outweigh the negative!!

    Keep being true to yourself!! :flowerforyou:
