I know I should just be happy for her. I try so hard to focus on my own success and goals and to be my own cheerleader. I have even tried to just forget about myself and to compliment others at the club on their progress. But everyday when I constantly hear about how great she is doing, and I get no recognition, it really bothers me. I know I just need to forget about her and focus on what I'm trying to do, but it is hard with these constant reminders. I have even thought about switching clubs or going at a different time but I somehow think that would be copping out.
I guess it sounds like I am whining and feeling sorry for myself. Maybe I am. I'm just wondering how to overcome this, and if any of you have had to cope with similar situations and what you did. I would appreciate any advice!!!
Thanks for listening!

Congratulations on your amazing weight loss! I'm new to this board, and I'm just really hoping I can learn from people like you, as well as offer support.
Hope you have an awesome day!
BTW, I went to your website and I couldn't pull up your 'after' pic. I'm sure you look fantastic and feel even better! Thank you for your words of encouragement!!
Have a great day!
Here are a few pics from Dec (the one with my best friend) and one from two weekends ago.
Really I am glad for her accomplishments, and very proud of her. But it can be discouraging to work so hard and never get any recognition, while she gets so much attention for something that did come much easier for her.
It's ok though, I just need to learn to give myself that recognition, instead of depending on other club members. That's why I'm here. To give and get support from others who struggle just like I do. This is just another one of those hurdles!
