Question:
Answers:
i have the same problem! i have lost 46 pounds and i feel like i cant talk to anyone about it.. i think it is jealousy. nobody wants to hear about someone elses success. It's really too bad. the only person i feel that i can talk to about weightloss is my husband.

i don't thimk so.
Could be they are either jealous or you may have come across as being smug. Because they are jealous that they dont have the drive you have to maintain good health.
if they're over weight themselfs, they might be jealous of you, and wish they had the will power you do. and dont let it make you feel bad, thats something to be proud of, if you need to talk to people, you should join a group like weight watchers, ive heard that its a really supportive group. (",)
Maybe it's coz they find that you are more focused on yourself than on them, or maybe coz they think you are spending less time in the house?
Jealous maybe? When I was younger, I lost 96 lbs and no one believed it was me. The only snide remark I received was the offhanded "she's using drugs, isn't she?" They could not believe that I was just determined to make myself better.
Keep up the good work. Do it for yourself, and no one else. Ignore them.
you done well. keep it up. about the rest it just your imagination.
take care.
Friends who are stand-offish and not supportive probably weren't really your friends to begin with. If they can't be happy and supportive, then you need to find new friends.
As for the family members, that's though. You can't find a new family. Some of my family is supportive and some aren't. They best thing you can do is just not worry about them. Easier said then done.I know. But you stay on track. Once they see how happy you are, they'll come along and be happy for you if. If not, then it's not your fault. They may have their own issues going on and can't feel happy for others until they feel happy about themselves.
Have you thought about joining a weight loss group? I was against them too, but they really do help! If you can't afford to pay to join a group, there are on line chat rooms, and other free sights out there. Until you're friends and family comes around, these groups can provide you with the support you need in the meantime! Here are some support groups I know of:
