so i ran into a friend who i havent seen for quite some time and we decided to go for coffee. She has always been bigger than me..but not any more she was SO skinny! I couldnt believe my eyes! Im of course more jealous than ever because I could of worked so much harder...

how do I deal with this problem! Its basically ruined my week for sure!
damnit! lol
 
why are you jealous?

You're you... She's she... Different people.. Different situations... Different everything...

All you can do is the best you can do - if you're not doing the best you can do - then ask yourself why -and use your her success to help keep you on track.
 
Ahhhh, but did she change her lifestyle? Will she be big again in a year? Look at the big picture and then delete it. We can't compare ourselves to anyone else. If you think you haven't been working as hard as you can, then this is your wake up call to work harder. Don't be jealous, be happy for her. When you are happy for someones accomplishments, it makes you feel better too.
 
I'd have to agree that it would be motivation as well. I think it's so cool to see someone you know beat the odds and lose quite a bit of weight. Plus, I loooooove seeing how they changed physically (besides obviously being thinner) because I imagine what I will look like underneath all this junk lol....and thats motivation right there.

Someone should invent something that lets overweight people see what they would look like at their ideal size...not just the fake model things they have on different websites, but something that actually takes into consideration your facial and skeletal bone structure as well as your face in general....that would bo so awesome. Then you could really hang up a picture for inspiration.
 
My college buddy used to go thru this, shed be skinny, id be skinny.. back and forth, but for YEARS now, she has been way thinner than me!

Uh oh!
 
I found that jealousy is the best motivation I saw my best friend loosing weight like crazy and she was always refered to as "big " and me little she was sure catching up to me so I decided that if she can look that good and not diet and excercise well then by golly I would chsnge my life and incorporate eating right and excercise and look 10xs better than her :p and so far that is working alot better than hers she is going to have to have surgury to remove all of the excess skin and I am not!!!
