That is almost 10 lbs a month, how much did you realistically expect to lose? I is possible to lose 50# in 50 days but realistically,I wouldn't hang my hat on iit. Gl

Maybe mean and maybe jealous but the big thing to remember here is that YOU are going to keep your lost weight off this time if you do e right things and SHE as about a 95% chance of gaining all hers back,cause doing it " the right way" just doesn't work long term. Gl

So I have a "best friend" who is also obese.  She was disappointed that I was having surgery and said "Now I am gonna be the only fat one".  MANY of her family members have had WLS.  So she decides she will do it "the right way" and begins to lose weight (23 lbs so far). 

She keeps bragging and telling me how huge her clothes are on her, passes them down to me and they still are too small for me. We go shopping and she just keeps bragging at her size. Here is the mean girl part.... I cannot feel happy for her. I think I am jealous!

I have lost 50 lbs total and feel great but around her I feel terrible.  I should be happy for her and I am not. 

 

Yup, wicked.  Sugar free mints!

 

I am glad you are doing well.  get plenty of rest.  Looking forward to more posts when you have time.  5 more days for me. Yay!
