Has anyone true colors have come out since your weight lost?

I remember three years ago when my best friend had rny and my weight was just going up. I was SO JEALOUS of her. I wanted to lose weight so badly and here she was getting her wish. Soon she was thinner than me, while I'd always been the thin friend. I'm not going to lie, it was hard. I even broke down and cried.

But I love her so much. I was jealous but that didn't make me love her less or want her to fail. I was thrilled to see my beautiful friend doing well and getting healthy. She inspired me to do the same. It had nothing to do with her, my anger, jealousy and frustration. Only to do with me and my wished and needs.

Three years later I had rny myself and now we are both skinny bitches. You can envy a friend for their success and chose to take it as an inspiration. I remember she lost a bunch of friends after her surgery who we're angry for whatever reason. Some people are friends with overweight people to make themselves feel better!!! That's insane.

I truly love my friend and want the best for her. That's real friendship and real love. I admire her strength and while I do miss how squishy her hugs used to be, I am proud of how healthy and beautiful she now is!!! I'm so glad she paved the road for me to get healthy.
