So tired of the underhanded jabs.

    Yeah, people suck! ;)

    Do it for you, but if you can use some of that anger to help motivate you then go for it. When you get to your super fit self, just flaunt it at them and make THEM frustrated!

    Anger and vengeance are never the path to a happy life whether you lose weight or not.

    As long as she is not overtly hurting anyone she has a right to take the path that gets her there. If people in the outer perimeters get pithy about it and were nasty originally.....not her problem!
    Sweet revenge is hers to have!

    People! So sorry! But you're making them part of that motivation! Here's to you and your son!

    This! This is why I hate people lol not really but it feels good to say it ;) I also heard words similar to yours. Mine from my parents (mostly my dad whom is slim and fit @ 76 yrs old) but also from my mom who has been over weight my entire life until recently when she had heart surgery and the dr put her on a diet. I refuse to talk to them about my weight now. If they say "how much do you weigh now?" I just say something like I have no clue but you know what? I am getting healthy:) of course I know how much I weigh but it's not their business. Take all the negativity and make it into your positivity. MFP really help me because I could vent and have positive feedback. Just remember you are awesome and take one day at a time.

    I know, sometimes it helps to raise my fists at people even though I'm not really angry, just frustrated. Life goes on though. As for people asking you about your weight...The number on the scale is private 100%. Thank you for your kind words, good luck to you!
