I lost more than my extra weight...

I started my weight loss journey in march 8th 2018. Since then I lost aprox 40 lbs. I wasn’t hiding it from anyone, I was open about it and I actually thought people will be somewhat supportive. Well.... My mother started telling me how I worry her with my weight loss and how I make her feel bad about her body (we used to have the same weight and similar measurements. I still think her body is beautiful. My body was beautiful too, just not very healthy) and started eating a lot of fastfood and crap and telling me how I waste her money on rabbit food and so on. She would order pizza and eat in front of me with the excuse that she wants to talk to me or some shit. My friends were like “you’ll never lose so much weight, it’s a losing battle”, “you’re already pretty” “you have an eating disorder so that’s why” and so on. My boyfriend of 5 years said I was cheating on him or that I want to leave him for a better man, that I was a hoe etc. (I did get a better man, so he was right. I got myself a man who supports me and encourages or comforts me instead of being a verbally abusive and judgemental bitch). I started my weight loss with a big group of friends and my boyfriend of 5 years but it ended with less pounds, less friends and a new boyfriend. Also, people’s attitude changed towards me, boys who used to make fun of me or friendzone me would start talking to me on facebook and spending time with me, my girlfriends no longer invited me out with them bc apparently I was a buzzkill (i had some liver problems and I quit alcohol entirely) and my boyfriend broke up with me (he’s seeing one of my old friends now lmao.). At first looking back I was disappointed about how many people I lost from my life, but truth is, I didn’t lose anything. They were selfish and rude and they were nothing a real friend is like so I am glad I made some space in my phone and facebook contacts tbh.
