This. These people are so annoying. So bizarre that a middle aged person feels the need to do this.

But if it ever was related to the weight loss I would attribute it to the fact that I basically changed my entire life. I don't really drink any more, I don't eat takeout very much, I use a lot of my free time to exercise. And when you change all your habits like that, people can just kind of fall out of your orbit, who knows what exactly it was. Are you the person she would grab starbucks with? Maybe she cut out the starbucks that kind of thing (not saying this is it just something like this).

Anyway, I guess I'd feel bad if a friend who I had fallen away from felt this way but for better or worse I am healthier and happier than I have been in my whole life and these changes were for the better, I hope all the friends that have come in and out of my life also find health and happiness and I'd hope they wished the same for me.

Op says that she is a healthy eater

OP can be a healthy eater and still be associated with some negative activity for OP. IE, in the starbucks example, maybe the friend always got a very low calorie option at starbucks but OP was ordering frappuccino's. The friend's behavior is pretty irrelevant, OP just needed to stop going to starbucks (or whatever)

Yes we fat women know you think of us this way.

That’s kind of hurtful bc I did not view her as my fall back friend at all. She could often ask to come over

What does this mean? Did you never invite her over? She had to ask?

where are the multiple threads? In this forum?
