Should I have to

[green 6]

Chickie - put your stats and yer before and afters back on yer posts ASAP, eh. You saw how we voted: 72 pro and 0 con. Respect the results of the referendum. :glasses (My niece lives in Oz. I could send her over to your house, ya know, and, like, threaten you by speaking Canadian.......:help: :heh: ) lol :bounce:

OK ... fine ... my turn. i've been relatively quiet about this except for a few PMs.

what people are doing to you is harassment and beyond rude. i know there is no way you would even think about doing this, but i'd love to see screen names of who have sent you PMs... WTF are they thinking? you are a beautiful, FIT, woman.

Chickie - you are an incredible inspiration to me and many many others. i started out with a higher weight than you and seeing your pictures gave me hope that I, too, could look amazing. people who say differently are just petty, jealous twits who need to (borrowing from another thread) bugger off!

Why not?? I think she should. If someone is harassing her that way and personally attacking her in pm's why can't she out them out?? She doesn't owe them any respect if they are disrespecting her. The hell with whoever is sending her those pm's.. she needs to post them, maybe then they will stop. Let's see them, who is attacking poor ole Chickie??

So much passive agression from one person. I admire the dedication that it takes to have a hate-on for me, I really do. But don't other area's of your life deserve the attention you are giving me?

LJM, She Smiles, pincham2brn, TheGh0st and Green. I love you guys!

I think it is best, for now at least if they stay down. I really don't want to antagonise the people who are harassing me covertly (and not so covertly).

Well I'm sure that I speak for the others when I say we think you're pretty great too!

And I understand why you took it all down, it just makes me sad that people are going to so much effort to be so unsupportive....I mean isn't that what we are all here for, after all?

[Oregondaisy 2,019]

I miss your pictures!

Yes, definitely! You are amazing, Chickie, and everyone here should be using your success as an example of what they can do if they work hard, not trying to tear you down to make themselves feel better.

To add to my last post....

It's almost like some people want others in their situation to be successful, but not too successful. In their view, any acknowledgement (whether it's verbal, written, or shown in pictures) that you've succeeded is simply throwing it in the faces of the people who either didn't do so well or do it so quickly. It's showboating, to them. Hell, I've run into it here, although not in terms of weight-loss, admittedly. I just try to remember that I'm not the one that they're really mad at, I'm just an easy target for them to take their anger out on.

The vote is in, Chickie. You are now "required" to put the photos/stats back up.

All I can say Mariposa Bella is MIAOW!

I'm done with this, but as a final note, I have received more than one email from people telling me they are tired of Chickie and her fascination with herself and her thinness.. They too feel she is using these skinny/thin comments personally so that others can jump in and validate how good she looks and how successful she has been. I too have said that I'm glad that you are healthy and got to your goals. Do you not understand what you read correctly?? Stop reading between the lines.. Oh, yes Chikie you are beautiful and please put back your pictures. As far as your blog, I have never and will never make any journal entries, because unlike others, I am not one of your worshipers and have better things to do than come on here especially for you.

You know I left lapband a year ago for this same very reason, nothing has changed.. Good luck to you all, yes, even Chickie. You do though should seek help for the issues you have with being the size you are (you are one freaked out chick, about being so skinny, that is!), whatever that size maybe.. You are way to obsessed with the whole skinny thing.

In Australia, we call that 'tall poppy syndrome'.
