I'm isolative as it is, but this took real courage for me to do, and while I wouldn't say it backfired, it was VERY clear that I did not fit in at all. That group fell apart eventually and the others I'd been a part of virtually all became almost like quick FB posts with very little content. So I dropped from all my groups and stick to doing challenges instead which I rarely post to, but just do the challenges on my own, which I enjoy. I do have a few friends that I share my struggles and successes with, and I treasure those friendships. I have some other friends that just don't get it and constantly try to correct me, minimize my struggle, or try to sabotage, so I know in those instances to not open myself up to that kind of bunk and I keep the focus elsewhere.dalbador1https://www.blogger.com/profile/09877799102438622117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-62271370171095019042017-02-14T14:35:07.353-05:002017-02-14T14:35:07.353-05:00I followed you from what I can only assume was the...I followed you from what I can only assume was the second website!

Like you said, a lot of apathy, name calling, and pettiness created a hostile environment where I just couldn't make any progress. I kind of gave up on weight loss for awhile, but I have been trying to slowly introduce healthy habits back into my daily routine again (eating a minimum amount of veggies each day, drinking water, yoga and walking in the evenings after work, etc.) <br /><br />I really appreciate your blog because you are one of the few people on the site that I have kept up with. Your willingness to press forward even in the face of plateaus and setbacks inspires me.Jennifer Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06848201953191810867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-3440003662514996022017-02-14T09:32:49.769-05:002017-02-14T09:32:49.769-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jennifer Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06848201953191810867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-32943820437649674182017-02-14T08:30:08.261-05:002017-02-14T08:30:08.261-05:00I still use SP, and my surgery group online, but m...I still use SP, and my surgery group online, but my initial reaction to struggle is still withdraw and isolate.
