That wasn't a real friend. I have friends of all shapes and sizes. My really skinny friends are my biggest cheerleaders. Just keep that excellent wit and attitude; real friends will be attracted to you. ❤️ 

I did lose friends too 😟 and I only talk about my weight loss here  

I am sorry there’s tension and she’s not responding. But I would say she wasn’t a genuine friend for several reasons... because if she’s that competitive and not encouraging there’s a problem. Or say there was a misunderstanding and she is for some reason upset over something else but never brought it up to work it out then again not a true friend. But I have lost a friend recently for no reason what so ever and it sucks, we were basically inseparable like high school girls and had so much fun... and then nothing 🤷‍♀️ She never even explained... it was like getting dump for no reason lol but it’s been a few years now and it still bothers me every once in a while. Because I don’t have many female friends and sometimes hanging out with all dudes gets boring, they don’t wanna paint nails and vent about stuff. So stay focused because you’re right, you want to attract good positive people into your life!  

It's difficult when you count with only a small group of friends and dumb jealousy gets on the way..hope this doesn't slow down your progress and we'll be able to self-motivate this week, hugs!!  

Friends aren't full of envy, keep going.  

💕 keilin, weightloss is like fightclub. First rule do not talk about weightloss. I thought she was different bc we had so much in common including goals and struggles. Erquiaga, you are so wise! Mamamc, we have to be the light to irradicate this darkness. Continue to lift other women up. My grandma used to say something that meant ugly inside becomes ugly outside. Ugly thoughts become ugly actions, to become ugly personality. Let the beauty shine! 13dias and adameve, yes... maybe she was a friend for that time and I’ve outgrown her now. Going to use this experience to fuel my motivation to go harder. Had two friends say I should do a physique competition, it was something I thought about 2 years ago. I’m going to do a few more months of weight loss before I seriously consider that. My trainer wanted to do that, but with her age and back injury she couldn’t do the exercises needed to get the muscles to pop. I might want to do it for her. Will come back to this in the near future. 

Aww I’m sorry. It’s such a shame that that kinda thing ends up happening. I have friends that I really can’t talk to anymore because i always end up breaking that first rule lol Or they are really bothered by the way I eat (or don’t pig out like they are). I have found that my thin friends are happier for me but I am not thin yet so we’ll see how that turns out in time 😅 

No matter what happens we’ll be there for you Dawnie! The bodybuilding competition is a bit too ambitious and not in my cards. I will strive to my goal to get in the best shape and we’ll see where to go from there.  

Sometimes “friends” are not as close as we think. Sorry you experienced this.
