Did you lose any friends because of PS..

I have not lost one single person from my life.  I attritubute that fact to ME and how I choose the people I call my FRIENDS.  It's not a word I throw around it's not the word I use for the girl I use to eat with.  The women in my circle are not jealous women, they are accomplished women with goals and lives and who since I knew them made ME a BETTER woman.  They never speak ILL of anyone else no matter the wrongs done to them by those people, etc etc.  They don't judge myself or others for the choices made regarding their lives.  I have ALWAYS had a high self esteem and as such so do my friends.

They wish me NOTHING but God's blessings as I undertook my WLS and then my PS.  These ARE my friends and I anticipate they will be until the day I die or vice versa.

I lost friends who were not heavy when I had my RNY and lost weight and because their same size or smaller.  I lost friends and received major judgement over each stage of my PS. I have an area that really bugs me that I'd like to revise. Most people feel that I should just "let it go", but I focus on it and ob sess over it - and people lecture me over wanting it revised.

There is major jealousy when you start with plastics, and many people cannot handle the changes we are making for ourselves. I'm learning to "let them and their attitudes go", and move on with my lift.  My real friends are still there and supportative.  They know what my life was like and that I really had no life of my own, and that know I feel so much better about myself and life.

Yes, the pain is there when a friend makes their terrible, judgemental comments, and yes it hurts that they are jealous of me, or that they don't want to be a friend, but I'm seeing that they weren't really friends at all.
