The air was on high yesterday...

because I was venting all day long! After I vented on here a little, my manager made the mistake of asking me "how things were going" (oops) I kept it short but let him know I was very un-pleased with how things have been going lately. After work it was off to a short meeting were one of my friends I don't see very often let me download for about 30 minutes. I felt pretty good but it was a long day at work which meant I was STARVING when I finally pulled into the driveway. I was so drained and I knew we had plans to go out for my friends birthday that night so I decided to relax for 30 minutes before getting ready. I popped some FF popcorn to hold me over until the late dinner (I wish I would have made a low point dinner instead but my friend really wanted everyone to have dinner there).




I got ready, felt great and we headed out to the bar. All day I went back and forth on whether or not I should have a drink or two...I ordered a small glass of wine, which turned into two and then some guy ordered my girlfriend and I a shot and even though I should not have I took the shot with her. The bar she picked out was nice, they had a lot of fatty bar foods so Derek and I ordered a small chicken pizza to share and dinner salads with FF dressing. I feel fat and bloated this morning...probably a combination of the 2nd hand smoke and the little bit of alcohol I consumed.


Small vent and NSV before I post my menu. NSV first, I did not worry about my stomach or weight the entire night, I felt great and I flaunted it!!! My vent, I have lost 20 lbs and my supposed "best friend" hasn't said a word about it :( I know she notices but she has decided she will ignore it. Oh well, I am still proud of how far I have come!!!

You look gorgeous and you should flaunt it you have good reason to. Sometimes friends dont say anything because they are jealous but I know it means a lot to you so hopefully she will give you some support. I am proud of you so keep up the great job you are doing!

Remember my "friend" I told you about in your last post? She didn't say too much about my weight loss either. She did but she was jealous so she didn't say a whole lot. I know how you feel. When I lost the first time, it was VERY noticeable, and I had a few friends who didn't say a word. It's hard. You should be VERY proud of how far you have come!!! You look GREAT!!!

If I was as skinny as you, I'd be flaunting it, too! :o)

Girls are mean. Period. I love ya'll, but you know it's true. I'm sure she's just jealous of you, and I'm sure it'd be hard for her not to be. You're successful, getting fit, looking great, and are marrying a great guy. She needs to get over herself, though.

I'm so proud of you. You're doing awesome!!

I realized a long time ago that my "friend" was toxic and our relationship was unhealthy, so when she decided to end it a year ago, I was glad. No skin off my back and I wasn't the bad guy. The reason she ended it was really stupid and blatanlty obvious that she was jealous. I am a lot better off and don't dread hearing the phone ring. :) SO if it does end, know that you WILL be fine!

I agree with dazey--girls are mean. She notices you are HOT now and hates not getting all the attention. :) And with that hot guy on your arm, who wouldn't be jealous?!?!? ;)

Have a good weekend!

Why do friends act that way? I often wonder if they feel like if you lose weight and get all hot then they will be known as the "ugly or heavy" friend!!

Why can't they be happy for you and chear you on. I think it doesn't have to do with the fact they are not happy for you but more to the fact that they are NOT happy with themselves!!

Accept it and move on, she will come around and mention it later when she has had a chance to digest it. If not the best revenge is to lose more weight so you look hotter next time you see her!!! LOL....* my bad

Sucks when those closest don't notice or pretend not too. But our accomplishments are still accomplishments whether anyone notices or not. You look amazing btw. And thanks for your well wishes. Everything is a-ok now. :)

Congrats I feeling so confident all night! Whoohoo!
Sometimes it hard for people to mention weightloss. THey don't know what to say or don't want to offen anyone if they word it wrong. I am in the same situation sometimes. Don't worry! You look great!
