I wanted to know how many MFP's have a friend who started out FAT just like the rest of us- over eating and out of shape, then you both lost weight and are working out- but they seem to pick at or on you about how they did this and that, and how you need to tone this up or that up and are constantly pushing millions of pictures of themselves in your face, trying to compare thier bodies to yours.

i just dont get it! i mean whats the point in doing that and its highly annoying, it like thier head got huge, and they think thier better than me, and the constant bragging makes me crazy- i wanna say 'HEY- You'll always be FAT to me!" i mean who do you think you are, you use to be fat and knew how it felt- know you want to talk smack about anyone YOU THINK is bigger than you!....really, I had to tell her to "KICK ROCKS" AND CUT HER OFF. am I the only one? Have you had this experience where they lost friends?

    She's just horribly insecure, but that's not your problem, you're perfectly justified in cutting her loose.

    OMG! People that have lost weight should be the most sensitive to how it feels, but instead some are just as bad if not worse than someone thats never struggled! Have a friend that started out fat and lost it all and now trys to motivate people, but in person he's become someone that will say stuff like, well I can't tell you that you look nice because then you'll think you don't need to lose weight and I don't want you thinking you don't! Really??? WTF!

    I notice that all the time here...or just people being inconsiderate in general...like those under 140lbs complaining about how disgustingly fat they are..when you have people here of all shapes and sizes who would kill to be 140lbs...I think sadly a lot of people use this site to boost their low self esteem & rather make fun of people than go to a therapist and fix their issues lol

    Life is short pick friends that make you feel better about youself. I cut one loose(HEHEHEH) because many times she would bring up my belly fat and tell me what I needed to do about it. I'm the smallest I have ever been in my adult life and I feel good about myself. Don't need some jerk trying to put me down!

    I think everyone will find that they have a friend like that in their lives when the circumstances arrises. I had a friend tell me once after we started losing weight together and I started losing more then her that I shouldn't have had to lose so much since I had such a pretty face. My response was ya well now I want the pretty a** to match. Needless to say we don't really talk a lot these days, cause it just got worst after that. Sometimes you just need to back away and let them do their own thing.

    i think its crazy. I just can believe how some people become so self obsorbed and uppity---walking around like they are some kind celebrity or something, like we have to bow down to them or act like we are thier paparazzi or groupies lol, how can they live like that, always taking about themselves and who takes 5 million pictures of themself and post it everywhere including thier own screen saver on thier phone and computer ugh. barf..:sick:
