I know that its just me. (at least I HOPE it is) but I feel like everyone that I'm dieting with (here, other boards and IRL) Hate me because the weight seems to come off so much easier for me. It doesn't, I'm working my butt off (literaly) but I am losing much more than everyone else around me. I'ts gotten to the point were I'm afraid to post.
My buddies on my buddy thread haven't been here in weeks. I don't know, maybe I'm just taking it too personal, but I REALLY need people to keep me going. And right now, I just don't feel wanted. I don't know, maybe its the tail end of PMS.
What you have to remember, is that the initial weight losses usually DO come off pretty quickly-I lost I think 10-15 pounds in my first month. After that, when you near goal things start to slow down.
Everyone here is on different levels of weight loss, and has different amounts to lose, and has different eating plans and exercise regimes-so weight loss is going to vary depending on the individual.
Angela~ hi! I have felt that way before too.
I have experienced those problems with friends locally. Ive been getting verbal bashing from a family member.. I know how it is. Just be positive and dont take to big of a trip over it because it will cause you to go backwards on the scale! Ive done this. You've worked hard for this, Girl!
I agree with aphil. It is very easy to peel off the first few pounds.. The smaller you get the harder it is! I lost a total of right at 40 pounds in 3 1/2 months. Pretty close to that anyways. Now, I do good to kick a pound a week! Even with all the exercising I do.
Sorry your having a rough day (hang in there!).

Thanks for letting me vent, cry, whatever,
What ARE you doing, whats you're plan?? Do tell???? I am new, just started my diet @ a week and a half ago and I can use all the advice I can get??? I am not mad atcha
I think you should be proud of your weight loss and happy what you're doing is working for you. As long as you're doing it healthfully there's no reason why anyone should dog you out for it. Of course sometimes people will say "You are getting so thin! I HATE you!!" and not really mean it....they're just saying their envious of your weight loss.... so chin up, I'm sure your buddies don't hate you, they just want your results!
I'm happy for you, if someone does feel that way don't let it bother you. Just rejoice life is short be proud and help everyone you can. good job take care kiddo and always aim high
I think everyone feels that way sometime or another. I know I did when I first came here...but now just a few posts and viola I feel like I have found a great place..so let us get to know you and we can all support each other...congrats on your progress so far.
