mylahxandermom's Journal, 04 May 2018

Today a friend told me that when my friends got together without me last week one person asked the others why does she post so many photos. I post lots of photos on Instagram and Facebook because I’ve been overweight and obese most my life. I’m healthier than I have been in years and I’m excited and proud. I also want to encourage others and for them to see it can be done. Even as a full time student and mother. I also live 3000 miles away from all my family members, other than my husband and kids. None of them have seen me since I lost 80 pounds. I weighed approximately 254 pounds last time I was in California. I shouldn’t let it bother me. It kind of makes me want to post more photos. I don’t know why people don’t just turn off or unfollow they have to make snarky comment.

Actually, I question to motive of the friend that told you that people were unkind. What does she get out of making you unhappy? You be you.

Girl SLAY 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Take MORE PHOTOS! When you’ve spent so long in an overweight body, it’s reaffirming to literally SEE YOURSELF HEALTHY. You do you baby girl. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

I love seeing photos of people who have lost weight! It motivates me! If you have people who complain, unfollow them! You dont need them and their negativity, you need to be supported and told how awesome you are doing!! Im very proud of you!! Great job! Keep posting photos!!

Millalite this is a friend who has lost weight and is actually very thin. A different friend than my last post. Agreed it probably still had to do with insecurities.

Keep posting if it makes you happy. No one has to understand your reasoning. Enjoy your success and don't let the pettiness of others deter your spirit of happiness toward your milestones. ---Kai

You just explained one of the reasons I shun Facebook.

Congratulations on your success - I post on my Facebook because it is for me. If someone has a problem with what I post it is their problem. What others think of me is none of my business anyway. I hope you continue to enjoy your adventure.

You should Be proud. Maybe your friend just doesn't realize your success because she has seen you day to day?1

You keep going girl! There are many many snarky people online these days. Lots of unhappy people out there trying to pump up themselves by knocking other people down. They are sad cranky people. You should be excited and proud you glow in your pictures!

I would love for people like that to walk a mile in our shoes. Just one mile. There is not only the physical pain, but the emotional part of struggling with weight. That might change the way they criticize others, if they have a soul. Be strong. Keep being you!

What Little Red Fox said. People like that, especially that passive aggressively talk behind one's back, are ones that have to run others down to make themselves feel superior and better about their own hollow pathetic selves. Give them and what they say all the consideration they deserve... which is none, nada, zero [bleeps] given. Post away and share your success far and wide in what ever manner and frequency you choose to do.

You've come a long way since you've started. Continue to be proud and post as many pictures as you want. It's motivation for me as well as others to see the difference. Do you and don't worry about what others think. Go girl!!😁💗
