SO UPSET

Well, I did it. I posted my weight picture to my regular Facebook and a bunch of people commented. What did they say? That I should join Crossfit and get a pedicure. What assholes. Couldn't they have said, "Wow Steph, your baby is not even 4 months old- great job." NOPE. I need a pedicure and to lose more weight. I think I want to defriend ALL of them.

 

I was bummed that I hadn't lost that much this week, but I really don't want to lose tooo much more and I'm really not overweight. Now I feel AWFUL about myself. Awesome.

Re: SO UPSET

  • WTF??? Are you serious? Who the hell says that? Even if you are as big as a house (which I know you are not), you just had a baby and should have been told, no matter what your weight, you are still beautiful. What asshats.
  • I'll say it here, this is why I hate people!  Girl, you are doing amazing after 2 kids!!!  Keep going and get where you want to be because you want to, not because of idiots like that.

  • Omfg, I just saw your post in the group. Who the hell says that to someone? And I would of deleted them. You should delete them. Like now.

    You are doing freaking great, and add to the fact that you just had a baby, you're doing AWESOME! Now I want to punch those people for you. I'm so sorry that they made you feel like crap. :(

  • I think you did great, screw all of them. I never got back that low even after just A so considering you had TWO babies, I consider that awesome!

  • um I saw that weight and there is nothing to be ashamed about, that is a fantastic number regardless of you having a baby 4 months ago!!

    delete, delete, delete!!

  • Well, thanks ya'll. I really wasn't fishing for compliments (though, they helped) but seriously- I am just so shocked that someone would even think to comment something other than positive things. So the guy (yes, a guy) that said I should join crossfit is a total toolbox anyway. I wrote on his fb wall:

    The next time someone accidentally posts their weight on facebook and you find it necessary to make a comment, the appropriate comment would be "Wow. Your baby isn't even 4 months old. Congrats on losing that baby weight!" Telling them to join crossfit is inappropriate.

     

    He then responded: "You said something about motivation. Crossfit is motivating. It was just a suggestion."

    My response " Until you've watched your body morph into something crazy because you carried a child in your uterus you should refrain from offering women weight loss suggestions."

     

    He has now deleted this conversation from his Facebook wall.  I am totally not all about fighting on Facebook but I had to say something. He needs to know he's an ass.

  • Why are people so rude?  That is not the kind of motivation needed for losing weight.  I'm sorry.  :(

     

     

  • Good for you for saying something to him!!

  • I'm so proud of you for sticking up for yourself and saying something to that guy!

    let me guess, he's single?

  • I'm in a mood to punch people. So, let me know if I need to go after him?
  • I know I'm late to this, but I cannot believe the nerve of this guy!  I'm so glad you let him have it!

    And please don't forget, you are BEAUTIFUL!!!
