Why do former fat people have such a disgust towards fat people?

[Anonymous]

My coworker looked at me in disgust this morning even though he knows I'm trying to lose weight and I've lost over 30lbs. He used to be over 300lbs and now is pretty fit and works out a lot.

It's not like I'm not trying to lose the weight. I'm practically working out every day and almost starving myself each and everyday by eating less than 1000 calories a day.

I want to prove to people like him that I can do it and be at a normal weight. It will be so satisfying to see the shocked look on his face the day he sees me small.

Ugh girl, I feel you. People like that are the worst. Like congrats on losing weight bro, but no need to look at other folks like they're trash. We're all struggling with our own stuff, ya feel?

Really pisses me off when former fat people act all high and mighty now. Newsflash - you were in our shoes not long ago! I bet if you asked him, deep down he still sees himself as the bigger dude too sometimes.

Don't let him living in your head rent free though sis. You're doing this for YOU, not to prove anybody wrong. Focus on feeling good and being healthy - fuck what anyone else thinks!

And yo, take care of your body girl. 1k cals is too damn low, you gotta nourish yourself. Losing it in a healthy way is best so you keep it off long term.

Keep slayin your goals - you got this! And when dude sees you smokin hot one day, say "remember me?" with ya nose in the air! You’ll both be fit queens while he's still a judgey asshole 😂😘

Thank you. It really pisses me off too. I will try not to let him live rent free in my head. And I will try to up my calories a bit. Thanks again! ❤️

No problem boo, really glad I could help a little. And damn straight - don't give that guy the satisfaction of getting under your skin! You just keep doin your thing.

For real though, try not to go too low with the calories - 1000 is definitely on the low side and you don't wanna mess with your metabolism. Maybe up it to like 1200-1500 and see how you feel/look after a week or so. Gotta lose it slow and steady to keep it off long term too.

And yes Gorgeous, definitely let me know next time you're hitting the gym! It'll be sick to train together. Nothing better than having a workout buddy to push each other. Plus I always find talking shit about haters like your coworker is great fuel for an angry lift sesh haha. You got this luv, I believe in you! Keep crushing it. 😊

You helped a lot. Thank you again. And I will up it to that and see how I feel. I'm hitting the gym this weekend when I get back from a trip! So see you then! : )

[Oliverlogan263]

Sweet, have an awesome trip! And right on for hitting the gym hard when you get back, that's what's up. Get after it this weekend and crush your workout. I'll be rooting for you from afar, show that former fat dude who's boss! You got way more motivation than he ever did. Enjoy your trip and I can't wait to hear how you kicked ass in the gym afterwards. You got this 100%!

[Asker]

Thank you! I will definitely crush it!

Sounds like he’s just acting this way because of some issues with selfishness. He forgets his lifestyle changes started somewhere too. He should be encouraging you, not judging you.

Don’t be discouraged. If you want to loose weight, do it for you. Don’t worry about what a hypocrite thinks. Though, the look on his face will be satisfying like you said.

I wish you the best with your journey.

[Asker]

Thank you! He indeed has forgotten his lifestyle changes started somewhere too. He should be encouraging and not judging but it will be very satisfying to see his reaction when I am a normal weight.

The concert is always the most zealous

[Asker]

Perhaps too zealous. He doesn't have to treat me that way just because I'm not a size 2.

Convert

I agree with you

They were disgusted enough to lose the weight
