Obviously jealous. People likely get defensive when they feel attacked...even if that attack is on their own self esteem. It is not your fault at all - but this person obviously has some low self esteem issues and needs to work on that herself.
Great job, You look wonderful! Very inspiring.0 -
She is either jealous as h*ll, or she is blind. I vote for jealous cuz you are lookin great!0

She's insanely jealous.....:devil:
So, just stay the course, and as you continue to make progress, make sure to gloat over this sub-human.
And at some point when she asks for your advice, steer her toward the most insane crash diet on the market.
Research whatever the biggest scam is.
Tell her that's how you did it.
And good luck with your continued success:drinker:0 -
I know this will sound odd, but I would tell her the truth and start by saying "If I'm acting odd around you today, it's because I don't know how to act in light of what you said about me a few days ago." She'll ask, and you can tell her what you overheard. At least it'll be off your chest if you do so. She'll have some excuse, but at least you said it. Then, pull away from her and try not to talk to her anymore. That would be me.0

I recently put my profile picture of my weight loss on Facebook. I am very proud of how far I have come along and got nothing but encouraging words from all of my friends. My best friend's sister in law saw me a couple of days ago (she is pretty big herself). She told me how skinny I was and that she hated me (kidding of course, or so I thought she was) and that she thought that the picture I put up on Facebook was photoshopped. I told her "My God if I could photoshop" and left. I went back to my friend's house, she was still there. Before I knocked I heard her sister in law say that I hadn't even lost that much weight, that I wasn't even that pretty, that my before picture was so embarassing and that it was awfully tacky that I put a before and after picture up when I wasn't even done loosing weight. My friend told her "well she has lost 45 pounds and I think she looks good":smokin: I left. Of course it made me mad but I am a lady and will not stoop down for anyone. I am not one to care what people think (much) but what is her problem? Why do SOME women have to be so catty with each other? This is my life right? Let me be. It's my friend's birthday monday and I know she will be there. She is a hypocrite and will act like we are the bestest friends in the world. :noway: Do I tell her something? Just leave it alone? What would you do?
First of all your before/after in your profile looks amazing.
Second of all you look great.
Lastly, there comes a time in life when we need to reflect upon the words of other brilliant people, to pull us through these hard times. In this case I leave you with:

Your friend's sister-in-law is just jealous about your progress and how great you are doing!!!! I am glad your friend told her nice things about you.0

jealousy... it does a lot to a person.
She is taking it out on you because you have done what she wants to do but isn't brave enough.
ETA: You look fabulous by the way.
I agree ^ She's jealous! Ignore the comment. And yes, you do look fabulous.0 -

^^^^ Exactly this.0 -
Of course she's jelous of you... U look amazing! Just wear something super cute and have a great time mingle show off ur sexy self And completely ignore the *****!0
-
There's nothing to say except that sucks. . .but yet you have your accomplishment regardless of someone else's (stupid) opinion.
EDIT: That and some people are just jerks.0 -
Wow! you look fantastic!!! Obviously she is jealous of what you have accomplished ...it takes a lot of strength and fortitude to lose 45lbs and not everyone is up to the challenge. There is absolutely nothing "tacky" about posting pics of your accomplishments. Don't pay her any mind at all- some people can only make themselves feel better by putting others down.
Keep up the great work0 -
You look awesome. I say the best response is to keep doing what you're doing-losing weight and looking more fabulous by the day. If she attempts to be catty again, tell her how you feel...all with a smile on your face .0
-
F that B!! You look fabulous and she is just jealous.0
-
She's soooo jealous. Just ignore that crap. I looked at your photo and I see a HUGE difference. You look great, girl!0
-
dont confront her, but keep flaunting those skinny pics. at the end of the day, you are losing weight and she is losing your respect.
stone cold. i love it.0 -
If she came up to me I would tell her I heard every word and that I would prefer to not talk to her and then walk away.
BTW you look A-MAZING!0 -
I say keep flaunting it! Normally I am against saying people are jealous, but in this case I have to say she definitely is. You've worked hard for how you look now and I wouldn't hide that.
also a good testament of your friendship that she stuck up for you; a lot of people would just say "yea" and leave it at that.
Congratulations!0
