  13. Hi 4jin, its sad but true, women can be so mean and catty. these women have their own issues, and it wont matter a bit if your thin or fat. its just best to stay clear of anyone who is negative. I always walk with my head up, shoulders tall. I feel good about myself and it shows. it shouldnt matter what the scale reads. good luck on your road to health SC not yet banded
