So I follow a progress pic group on Reddit and I finally got the nerve to post a before and during pic of myself. Someone messaged me and said I was ugly, asked if I was Jewish because I have a huge nose and said I’m still fat. I clicked his name and saw his previous comments to other women being rude. I blocked and reported him, but I also took my post down, I just feel like crap now

First, don't listen to internet trolls! Your progress is awesome! Look at you! Look how much you changed! BE PROUD!! You're beautiful and healthy and awesome!6

Things are only as important as you want them to be. I’m guessing that that terrible person is a troll and not someone important in your life so don’t give their opinion any weight. Find inspiration in the positive people and things in your life, that’s what really matters!

He’s just an anti-semetic piece of garbage that can take his opinion and shove it up his rectum. You keep kicking butt and being the gorgeous queen you are! Don’t give people like that the time of day!5

OP, I bet his own face looks like a dropped pie!3

I have a BMI of 21 and am sitting right at my ideal weight. I look good and I know it. A while ago, some guy here on MFP told me I was fat and ugly. I LOL'd at him. It was an obvious lie intended to tear me down and it didn't work, because I couldn't care less what random trolls think of me. I know what their purpose is. And it's not about enlightening us all to the truth. They just want to wreck people's feelings. Guys like this throw insults around at everybody and hope some of them stick. Don't let this guy's ugliness stick to you.
He's just another miserable troll getting off on the idea that some woman somewhere was crushed by his nasty comment. Made him feel powerful to say it. He must have seen you actually being successful and felt threatened by it. There's an excellent chance this guy is super pathetic in real life and can't handle other people being happy while he's miserable. His comment says nothing about you and EVERYTHING about him. There's no denying you've made tons of progress. You look good, and you know it. Ignore the troll.

First. Ignore the trolls. Seriously, it's like any other bullying, people do it to feel better about themselves.
Second. You look great!
Third. OMG!!! That is such a cute dress, may I ask where you found it?4 -
Your progress is great, you look lovely and that dress is supercute. Hug yourself for reaching out here to get the right kind of feedback!2
-
Meh, troll ... not even worth getting angry about, just treat them like a fly, wave your hand and carry on .... awesome progress though ... how long was it between pictures, it looks like some serious work you put in there1
-
You're looking amazing. Keep on doing what you are doing!3

Everything the others wrote is true. The troll sits and writes probably hundreds of messages a day. In real life, he’d probably be attracted to you, feel impotent and too intimidated to ask you out, and deal with his frustration by going home and - coward that he is - insulting more women (while remaining safely anonymous).
I think his unconscious hope is that if as many women as possible can be made to feel less confident, less happy, generally just *less,* then maybe he might, in relation to their decreased self-worth, be seen as somehow *more*.
The problem for him is: while we may not know who he is, he does. He has to live with being that kind of person, that guy. How depressing. Gross.
Meanwhile, you are bravely demonstrating persistence and self-respect.
You’ve done right by yourself. Be proud!8 -
You look great, ignore the trolls and be proud of your accomplishments.2

People are twats, ignore them7

Yes....idiots run among us but recognize it and move on. He/She or it wins their cause if you let it overwhelm You! Be happy with your progress 1
-
You look fantastic, I wouldn't place any value on what someone that hides behind their computer thinks, how sad his life must be to spend time tearing others down, I have had guys tell me I'm old, fat and ugly...I know I'm not ugly....lol3
-
You look perfect and have definitely made great progress! I would more or less pity the guy because he probably has nothing going for him in life. I love the Spirited Away dress, btw!1

Thanks! The first pic was a few weeks before I had my son in November 2016, the second picture was November 2017, third pic is from yesterday.0 -
Thanks everyone for the kind words! 0

You look great and you’re a beautiful girl! Well done on your weight loss too.
Pay people like that troll no mind, no doubt criticizing others helps them feel better about them self.1 -
The joy of humanity. There are always jerks out there, don't give them the satisfaction of another thought. You look stunning! Keep up the good work!1
-
You look great, awesome progress pictures. Remember don't feed the trolls. Most troll comments are a direct reflection of their own insecurities or they have some serious personality disorders. I feel sorry for them most of the time, it must be sad living under that bridge of their lives. Don't give them any of your energy.1
-
Be proud of yourself, you look amazing, always turn negative rubbish to positive thoughts1
-
Terrific progresslady. Don't let the trolls get you down. You've worked to hard to let him steal your sunshine!1
-
NONE of what he stated is true! You look fab, and just as importantly you are taking care of yourself. Keep taking care of yourself by not allowing immature crap to get you off your game!2
