    Go to the grocery store and pick up a bag of something as close to 38 lbs as you can. Maybe a big bag of dog food or potatoes. That is a lot of weight. You are a winner Vampire Queen! I hope you will continue to be motivated by your success so far.

    38 lbs down is AMAZING!! You should be really proud of yourself! That is heartbreaking that someone said that to you, I am sorry you had to experience that. I had an unsupportive roommate while I was counting calories and I felt like she was trying to derail me with baking a lot of sweets. It was hard, but I got through it! You got this!

    That person was probably jealous. Nice work on 38lbs. That is amazing progress!

    Celebrate every single win no matter how big or small! Those who don't celebrate or care have more underlining issues that are not your problem. You got this! Super proud of you! I was stuck at 295 for over 6 weeks. I kept at it and broke the plateau. The old me would have given up. What would the new you say to the old you in this situation?

    That is an incredible achievement! Sounds to me like those negative people are projecting their own failures on you! You are winning! Cut those toxic people out of your life and keep on keeping on!!!

    Brilliant. Keep at it. I get those sort of comments sometimes. I just think they have no friends. That always makes me feel better 😀😀

    38 pounds is amazing! I, and everyone commenting above is incredibly proud of you! Some people are just mean spirited; attacking others makes them feel better about their own troubles. They are probably projecting disappointment they have in their lives on you. I recommend either cutting out the toxic person, or perhaps lend a helping hand and offer to bring them along with you in your weight loss journey. Either way, stay committed to your goals. Best of luck!

    Well done! Do you measure and take photos? This would help to remind you of how much great progress you are making. Don’t let others sabotage your success.
