in Motivation and Support
Got today work today/tonight and alot of people that have not seen me in a while but heard I lost weight got to see me for the first time not in my obesity stage. Uhm well thought I would get compliments , but NO. I was told I look like a crack head for losing so much weight and for losing it fast. Fast my *kitten* it took me a year and a half to lose 61pds. Then was ask how much more weight was I going to lose I stated 15 more pds oh no that did it. I was told if I do will look like I was dried up crack head. Well I got piss off and walk away from people whom I thought was friends well I guess wrong, because I see now NO their not. So I would like to take the time to THANK all my MFP family who understand my mission. Thanks for the motivation, inspiration, compliments, and being there when lack of confidence was not. MFP family is awesome, fabulous, spectacular, people. THANK YOU.

    They're jealous! You look great and you've worked hard to get there. I bet you're a lot healthier and have so much more energy, too.

    I remember 20 years ago when we were learning to not be so absolutely negative to overweight people (that's about when the term "fat" in describing someone become non-pc, right?) I think it's gone too far the other way now. We see fat as the more normal and don't think someone is "fat" until they are obese. I remember when I started a weight loss program 6 years ago, I had about 15-20 lbs to lose and everyone said I was nuts. But when it was done I looked and felt so much better!

    Keep coming back here for the support you need. Forget those twits who want to drag you back into their misery.

    You're so right. They can't be called friends.


    Congratulations on your healthy lifestyle, and I wish you many more successes.


    You look fantastic.

    Gosh, after reading that I had to go look at your pictures to see if you'd really declined into looking like a dried up crack head. You were beautiful heavy and you are beautiful slender. I know that hurt a lot to have "friends" talk that way to you. What a learning experience this life is! You hang in there. It's good you've got MFP to come to and talk to people about the whole thing.

    Wow, it is amazing what some people say sometimes! Clearly you have been working hard for some time and you would think they would be happy and proud of you for such commitment. Nope, they had to bring you down.

    I could say forget it, they don't matter, but clearly their opionion mattered to you and they let you down, and that is a bummer. Crackhead? That's kind of funny but also very sad statement of our society these days!

    I'm glad you got on MFP and got the support and "atta girls" that you deserve. You look awesome and you are headed in the right direction. Keep marching ahead and don't look back!

    You are looking great. Don't let other peoples negative comments ruin your day. It just isn't even worth it. You have friends here that know the hard work and the time devoted to you losing that much weight and can appreciate you for that.

    May I first say you look totally sensational. . . Secondly if anyone says such mean things to another it would be out of jealously or spite. There is no excuse to down talk someone who has obviously worked so hard to achieve what you have. Friends or not nobody should ever talk to another human being that way. But hon. . God will bless your life. Look to Him and all is okay. Sorry you had to go through that!
