very discouraged

That seems like the sort of thing you should be converting into motivation, to me.

Please don't give up. I know how rough it can be and what it's like to be at the mercy of those who aren't compassionate. We cannot control the behaviors or others but we can control how we allow those behaviors to make us feel. You're stronger than you realize. Just commenting on that occurrence shows your strength. Keep to your course, keep a strong support system close to you, and keep pushing through. You can and will meet your fitness goals, my darlin'!

Let no one's judgments bring you down. YOU know what you are doing to become the best version of yourself. Stay on MFP--it provides amazing support during the ups and downs of turning a diet into a lifestyle!

Best of luck :-)

DO NOT GIVE UP!!! People in this world are rude and disrespectful! This person is the one with a problem.... Don't let them get in your head. You, on the other hand, are awesome! You decided to makes changes...good changes... now stick with it! Head up!!!!! Can't wait to see your success story..... ))

Don't let rude people get to you. The comment they made about you is really a comment on their own character.

Instead of feeling discouraged, feel sorry for the person who doesn't have enough class to keep their nasty comments to themselves. Most importantly, don't let someone else's poor behavior cause you to give up on your goals. You'll probably never see them again.

I went to an amusement park yesterday, and wasn't able to fit on one of the coasters. I was somewhat ok with that only because I had expected it to happen. What I didnt expect was for someone I passed when i was exiting the ride to make a nasty comment about my weight. I'm just ready to give up.

That comment was ignorance in action. Think what a deficit of spirit that person has and feel sorry for her/him. You can lose weight but that person cannot gain integrity nearly as easily.

Come on, you know you are at an unhealthy weight for yourself, so it is really important that you commit to yourself. Get yourself into the health zone. It doesn't matter what others think: it only matters that you live a full, active and healthy life. Friend me if you want to have someone in your court who is not a pushover, but is a truly caring support for you reaching your goals. Ce

Most of the time people can be so cruel.. When people expect me to fail is when I want to show them the most that I can and I will do this. Dont give up...That is what some people want us to do. I had someone ask me "Are you still doing THAT" Like they thought I would have already giving up and I just get more determined to show them that I am not a quitter. Call it pigheaded or whatever, but I want to be healthier and happier than ever before. And one of the things that will make me happy is so see their faces as I change my lifestyle.

It'll be ok...just don't give up....I've had this experiance with rides before, but not with rude comments. Don't get me wrong, people have made fun of me before and I know it hurts and tends to stay with a person. Just try to turn that feeling you have into motivation to be able to fit into a ride next year. I know it's hard! I've struggled with emotional eating....mild binging....I know what it's like to feel as tho food is calling to you. Don't give up, exercise becomes a habit....the taste for sweets fade, you can do this!

People are so rude...but that should not be the reason you quit. That should be all the more reason you work harder to meet your goal!!!

Hang in there. You are working on the issues. Some cruel people don't understand the struggles we face. The only one we can change is us and you are on your way, Don't fall for weight goal, but strive for health. Peace to you.
