Jealously issues people have... =(

[KasumiNeko]

I joined a nutrition group at this place my mom and dad go to~ it's in a placelike a huge church thing or something that has different groups for people to
go to with their problems~
Seeing the nutrition/ healthy eating group here~ I was like COOLz! =D!!!
So I went there and my boyfriend tagged along~

I told my weightoss story~ About how I lost over 100 pounds by eating healthy and eating right~ and one day it just stopped working~ that I needed help and support~

Well! these people were just so rude! They ignored me the entire time! My boyfriend, who was on only there because I was, told everybody how he eats junk food all the time and feels a little addicted to it and everybody talked to him~ ALOT.. O_O

I have worked so very hard all these years to be healthy and loose weight~ I study nutrition and plan on being a nutritionist one day~ Basically, all I want to do is help people with my knowledge and possibly inspire them with my weightloss story~

I tried giving in helpful tips on eating right and such and I was just simply ignored like I wasn't there~ It was pretty ridiculous...

This isn't the only thing~ I used to have a close friend until I lost weight~ she was overweight herself and became jealous when I became a smaller size than she was~ stopped talking to me and my very presence made her very upset...

~She created the rumors around school about me loosing all my weight to drugs and eating disorders....


Have any of you ever dealt with this? How did you handle it?

What do I do to handle people like this with jealousy issues? It really hurts me.. =(

Heh, sounds like people now view you as a hot chick and with that unfortunately comes the side effect of not wanting to be in your presence as you looking so good shows how bad they look or at least perceive themselves to look in comparison to you.

Another thing it could be for that group you joined is you losing so much weight makes them feel their failure as maybe they've wanted to do what you've done and not been able to get themselves committed enough to do it.

So to ignore you is to ignore their own failure so they can continue to feel good in their complacency.

Its not your fault what has happened Kasumi you simply have to seek out a more supportive group and if you never find one don't lose heart as this forum still exists and here we are all positive and want you to win and succeed.

As for your weight loss stalling if you've hit a plateau a trainer on another board named Alex told me that in those cases he recommends someone keep their calorie intake the same as what they'd been eating to lose the weight but simply up the cardio or exercise in general to see if that gets the weight loss going again.

Also you could PM some of the trainers here and ask if they can help you find ways to break through this plateau or whatever is stalling you at the present time.
