I'm not sure if I'm in the minority here, but this really offended me. I used to be friends w/ a girl from school about 10 years ago. She got married & had 2 kids & gained an unhealthy amount of weight. Well last year she got gastric bypass & now she is very thin. We are only FaceBook friends, so we would only talk once in a while, she isn't someone I would talk to outside of FB. One day I was looking at her pictures on FB & I noticed that she posted a couple pictures of the back of a random woman in line @ McDonalds. The woman was fairly large, but dressed appropriately. My FB friend took those pictures of the unknowing woman & posted them w/ comments about how much back fat this woman had. Does this offend anyone else?, or am I alone here?
That would offend me too! Because for one that's so rude and heartless, especially being a previously big woman she should know better. But for two, SHE DIDN'T PUT ALL THE WORK INTO IT! She had the surgery. which I know that some people medically need it, but really if you haven't worked your ass off every single day and watched every freaking bite of food you put into your mouth, you REALLY shouldn't be judgemental of someone at Mcdonalds, because obviously she was at the mcdonalds too!!!
Yes I think it's really rude when people do that :(
I don't think anyone should take pics or post pics of someone else and then comment on their body on facebook., good or bad comments really. Unless it was like "ooooh I just love her shirt" or something benign like that. lol
This if it had not been for her surgery would she be thin? She needs to remember that!!
Quoting miller060905:
Absolutely!!! That is very rude and since she was once large you would think she would be a bit nicer about that sort of thing. How would she have felt had someone taken her picture and done that?
Totally rude. :( When I see large people now I want to run over and help them and tell them, it's not hard to lose weight, you CAN do it! But I have to control myself, lol. Perhaps though it's because I ate right and got active and waited and WAITED for weight to come off that I appreciate the journey and can relate. Surgery doesn't always teach you new habits, so maybe she can't really appreciate the patience and effort it takes.
Sounds like ... even though she's lost the weight.. that she's a little too big for her britches, KWIM?
