Tired of ppl stating the obvious

Those people suck. Change for you not them or you will not succeed.

Don't worry...soon it will be the complete opposite: everyone you run into will comment on how much weight you've lost since they last saw you. You can do it!!!

I gained quite a few pounds when I was in middle school, and my extended family members, when Id see them, would always comment on my weight. Yes very hurtful, and inconsiderate, but one thing I always remember now is not to compare myself to others. Always helps. Just do your thing, and good luck!

Family are usually the biggest critics. they think they do it for our own good but its really just very hurtfull and humiliating. their comments never ever motivated me only made me feel worse about myself and force me to eat more.

Oh yeah, those tape recordings in your head, that repeat every nasty word that has ever been said, the naturally born tiny relative that brags about loosing weight and then stares at you. Practice answering those comments with your own positive statements, like, "I am not my weight", "I can change", " I am the best ME there is" and one day at a time take care of you (no matter what anyone else says). Don't think of yourself a old banged up Pinto, think of yourself as a Ferrari. You don't put just anything into a Ferrari and you have to run it hard to keep it tuned up, People may still make comments like you are the Pinto, but YOU know the truth, YOU are a Ferrari.

I run into family members that I haven't seen in a while and the first thing that they like to point out is the obvious "MY WEIGHT" How about a co worker or old friend..... 'My Weight" .....I love old people but something just shouldn't be said and i understand they are wise but I am not blind....Somehow in all of that it was a positive thing because it motivated me to change the way people see me. I cried many nights but came to realize that "CRYING WILL NOT BURN THIS FAT" and so I am going to fight!!! I am on this site looking for other people who have been hurt by other peoples word or negative views and is truly ready to change. please add me if you are serious!!!

Good for you. You change for yourself and nobody else. You are going to do fantastic. I will be your cheerleader

I looked at your pics you look great, and you have curves that i'd kill for, you are also young so if you can learn to eat healthy and maintain a healthy lifestyle you are ahead of the game and will spend the best years feeling good in mind, body, and soul.

OMGoodness! I can share a story about when I was pregnant. I was already overweight and I admittedly wasn't too far along in my pregnancy. I was at work helping a customer (old man) and he, his wife and I were talking about what they do or used to do for a living. He was telling me how he is an engineer. The conversation was nice for maybe 10 minutes and then he asked if I know where 119 & Metcalf is and I said, "Yeah I live right by there" he says something like "Well I have a nutrition business there, it is nutrition counselling, we help people lose weight." I was like "Oh really that is cool." I am not sure if it didn't click or I didn't want to realize what he was getting at, but I always like to give people the benefit of the doubt. So a few awkward seconds pass by and he says "You know if you want to come by some time you should, I can probably help you and give you a discount maybe" Before I could take a breath or he could even expect a response I said sterny, "I'm pregnant" and the air went dead...no one said another word. =/ It didn't feel very good that he said that, even though I was pregnant.

wow not cool at all. we've all been in circumstances like that pregnant and not. i too was picked on when i was pregnant and almost 300 lbs. the fam and a "FRIEND" kept reminding me how i would probably never have my figure back. and that my body looked discombabulated. And this is when i was 9 mnths pregnant.
