I've lost 2.5 stone, going from 11 stone to 8.5. It's taken 18 months and a lot of willpower but I'm so much happier and my clothes fit! Also because I'm only 5ft my BMI is much healthier.

Didn't anticipate this but some people just not as nice anymore. It's subtle but instead of a token "you look nice" today I had a slightly barbed "ooh look at you!" from a long term friend. My sister posted a slightly piss taking comment on a Facebook photo of me (for the record I very rarely put pics of myself, this was the first one this year)
I don't know if I'm being over sensitive but I find it upsetting. Has anyone else had this?

Jealousy, pure and simple. You've done amazingly!! Well done 😊

Well done OP!! That is amazing! Sod everyone else, you must feel great and should be proud of yourself. They may just be jealous.

Thank you both Smile what's weird is these are both slim attractive people, why would they feel jealous? I just don't get it. My dh is also very grudging about it. I get that, we started trying to lose weight together and he had lost very little (because he keeps cheating!) so we don't talk about my weight loss at all really.
