I de-friended about 4 people that were doing the same thing, making snide comments about my journey and what not. It felt so good to be rid of them! You don't need anyone like that to bring you down! The journey can be hard enough without people like that in your life to sabotage you. ~hugs~

I've had people come and go in my life. You have to decide, if this person is good for you or not. If she is a good person to have in your life, keep her, if she is not a good person to have in your life let it go.

It really does not matter if she is a good person or not, what matters, is this a good relationship for you to be in right now.

Years ago I had a great lady friend who helped me out a lot, over the years, we aren't great friends anymore. Our lifestyles and morals and ethics no longer mesh, I'm still polite, when I see her, but we are not buds anymore.

???She posts what she eats in her statuses, doesn't she?

I'm one of the ones who believes that if a person doesn't want anybody knowing their business, then they shouldn't post it on Facebook. If she's posting her meals, it sounds to me like she's inviting comment. I don't get why people do that anyway...who cares what people eat for dinner?

I don't know if I'd want to be friends with her after the rude comment she made about drinking occasionally fitting into a healthy lifestyle. Perhaps she is jealous of your success.

Occasionally I do post about food, but only because I have several friends who like my figure-friendly recipes and it's kind of turned into a following. 9 out of 10 times though, it's discussed in a note, not a status.

She unfriended me, apparently. Ah well. I'd rather someone ditch me because they didn't appreciate my viewpoints rather than change my viewpoints to avoid being ditched.

Well, looks like I am a little late in posting this, the situation cleared itself up, but she was only jealous of you and trying to drag you back down to where she is or else why the eyerolls and comments?

Best for you she is gone now.

I have some friends that do this once in a while if they make something particularly interesting, impressive or try new recipes. It's definitely not some cheap fast food. It's more of a recipe share thing which I don't mind; even some diet busting recipes can be made healthier or provide ideas for meals that work with your plan.

But yeah... don't tell me if you went to McDonald's... seriously.

Because you have "known" someone for a very long time, it does not necessarily make them a "friend". Do what you have to do for yourself. Her "unfriending" you may be a blessing in disguise...

eek she doesn't seem much like a friend with her comments anyways Glad it seems to be working itself out.


How do you hide the updates from people? I tried to look up how and found lots of things that did not work, or I couldn't find what they were talking about lol.

I have several people that I would love to hide because all they do is clutter up my wall and I could care less or they are actually annoying lol. But I cant figure out how

edit: nvm I figured it out lol. For anyone else interested you just mouse of their status and on the right hand side an X appears. Click it and you will have options to hide.

The chick clearly didn't want help, people need to learn to help themselves before expecting anyone else to help them. I hate the comment of you're losing too much weight...It's like seriously? Did you honestly just have the nerve to say that to me? Be thankful she unfriended you. she's tainted obviously and need to work on herself since clearly it's herself she had the problem with.

One girl I know complains how she looks and feels fat...it's like really? Then that pepsi your drinking maybe you should try and put it down and throw it out, and not to mention the KD your eatting, or the mr. noodles that has like 600 mg of sodium... or the fact two of us (My current) workout buddy are trying to get her involvd more but her excuse is "I'm too old"...I find people who make every excuse in the book don't want help they just want the attention. (not saying she really wants the attention much, but I think she's looking for us to say no your not fat.) She's not she is wearing the weight well but she is indeed overweight. With people like that and that person you wanted to unfriend are people who can not be helped at all.

NICE! If she doesn't want to be "lectured" about healthy eating, then you don't need her telling you that you're losing weight too quickly and making nasty remarks regarding your weight loss. I hate to think that people get jealous that easily, but I kind of wonder if you losing weight urks her and she's jealous because she's struggling! Ignore her!

IMO it sounds like she wants things handed to her... she doesn't want to work for them. She wants to complain and get sympathy but wasn't willing to do anything to change her situation.

Either way, it's a moot point. You're better off without her, she didn't sound like much friend.

Eh, she stopped recently, so I stopped caring, and apart from that she's actually very nice xD

It's good that you called her out. It did sound like she wanted things handed to her and didn't want to do the work to lose weight.
