Is it just me or do others on here have friends & family that get annoyed hearing that you’re doing well on your diet and they’re tired of getting a picture of a fantastic healthy meal you’ve made and enjoyed!!! I mean it starts out like they are excited and supportive until you lose 15 pounds AND then continue to lose more then they seem different!!! I can only figure that they are haters because they are not to the point where they are ready to shed a few pounds!!! I would think they’d at least be a little happy that I’m healthier if nothing else but it seems not!!! I know I was always the one to go out to eat (or order in) and ALWAYS pick up the tab so maybe that plays a role in it!!! 😃 I don’t know but I’m on a mission here and focused!!!

I wouldn't call anyone a "hater", that's pretty strong, but people start to feel like you are reproaching them for not losing weight. Best to reply if they ask, but don't bring the subject up too often.

I think they get tired of being the cheerleaders if they aren't doing the same. Find like minded people for support.

I'm not really sure what a "hater" is or even if there is any such person. I have never seen in my family where a person wasn't happy for another. Most care about the person's health and can only see a great benefit to losing. As much as some people don't care about losing weight it could be stressful for some when they know they should and see someone losing. Maybe it's a reminder for some of what they should be doing and don't want to feel stressed about it. You're doing great and I'm proud of you!

Oh yeah I know exactly what you are talking about. My husband's family is the world's worst for it. They drive me insane some days.

sounds like you have more than weight to drop! you know what they say, "misery loves company".

ireland, the term "hater" is being used on the internet for anyone that you disagree with. I dislike its usage, I think we should be able to discuss and disagree, rationally, without descending into name-calling.

Stay strong and don't take it personally. They might be thinking how much they need to do it and really are jealous. just keep it up because we are doing this for ourselves not others hunny. Great job

Thank you Gz9gjg for clarifying this for me. If we all had the same opinion, we wouldn't learn. I also enjoy good discussions from open minded people.

Try not to take it personally. My own husband is always telling me, "you don't eat enough!" and "you're too skinny!". (I am still overweight according to the charts). I have just come to realize that he misses his 'eating buddy'. 💔

Thanks Melissa. My own brother said he hates when I’m on a diet because we never go out to eat anymore!!! You kinda feel used because I never let anyone pay when we go out but I’ve always been that way and never thought about it until he said that! He is less likely to tag along to do something if he knows we’re not going out to eat somewhere! Smh!
