    What an *kitten*. I actually share quite a bit of my weight loss/fitness stuff on social media and have been lucky enough to be surrounded by positive, awesome people. I find posting on Instagram to be a really great part of my weight loss journey. I’d block him (or whatever you it is you do to make people go away on SnapChat) and move on from his comment. Some people just like to tear others down, it has more to do with their own insecurities than with you. Surround yourself with positive people and ignore the haters.

    The guy you describe is an Idiot... I’d call him out and then block him, that’s what I’d do anyways... I have a low tolerance for negative or idiotic people in my life. You are doing an excellent job on your journey 😀!!

    It's really derailing the thread though.

    I think it's relevant. It's obviously a fairly ubiquitous experience but people have different ways of dealing with it.

    To provide content: one particular family member used to say I must have been eating gluten again to have lost weight. I have ceoliac disease and was skinny when I was younger because I was malnourished. Like I would risk bowel cancer just to lose some bodyfat. I was fairly depressed at the time, unemployed and didn't have much to be proud of except that I'd managed to figure out a better way to eat and was making progress. It did feel exactly like she was just pulling me down for no reason. I can't take my own advice and just cut her out in this case but I can make it clear I'm just not accepting behavior like that anymore.

    "Sorry I'm not accepting comments on my body today" shuts people up nicely.

    Good for you. 👍🏼
