FIRSTLY before I write this entry I want everybody to understand that I am not writing these posts for attention. I am writing them for two reasons. One, to talk to someone (even though its a lot of strangers) and two, because I hope that someone can relate and find some comfort in knowing they are not alone. At first it felt quite safe to write these journal entries and it was fun, but after, what I interpreted as an attack on my character, I just stopped journaling on FS all together. What felt like a life line to me for a couple of weeks, became just another place where you are judged and criticized. Being in the public eye most of my days, trust me I get enough of that in the real world. FS became my little safe haven, a place where I was a stranger just like the next member. It became my happy place. Where I could just be ME without worrying that the entire world is waiting for me to fall flat on my face. (Again my OWN interpretation of my life) Words dont hurt, unless you pay attention to them -- is easier said than done!

I am doing exactly THAT Marix. I have to figure out why it upset me the way it did. Sometimes its not what someone says, but how WE INTERPRET IT. Having serious conversations with the voices in my head.... lol. (thanx for taking the time to comment xx)

I'm not sure what happened but if someone did intentionally (and not like Marijke mentioned above) say something mean, then don't let one bad seed ruin this for you. I have had this app on my phone for years, and I never realised there was kind of a blog/journal/thread where we could seek out help, support etc. In the last 6 weeks it has literally been a lifeline at times, and been a reason to keeping logging my food and thoughts. I think if I had known about all this activity I would have stuck to my guns easier...

Hey Mich, it had the same effect on me. I have never been so dedicated and motivated to get back into shape. Some really amazing people here.
So much love & support that you wont find anywhere else.
I am a very private person and find it way easier to seek support & advice on FS than any other place or space. We all have our own experience & interpretation of life, our own opinions & perceptions. Being bullied most my life, I just think I am super sensitive when attacked for no apparent reason and I am working on that.

I take much of what I read here with a grain of salt. I refuse to emotionally invest my feelings in responses from total strangers. Take advice or criticism for what it is and simply move on, at least that's my aim. although not as successful at times as I wish. Keep swinging for the fences.

Oh I completely get you Lola - I am so private too, and my weight loss journey is something I am sensitive and closed about (especially to those closest to me)... I know that maybe is something to frown on, but then I feel so open and relieved when I can share on here... I really hope that despite one or two negative people that we can both thrive in this journey we are on ❤️
