@@fatgirlsvelte, it's lunacy that a disgruntled creep can whine and an entire topic disappears. That is, I think the whole thing is gone rather than just the posts with your pics. You're an asset. Please stay. Let the miscreant be disappeared.

What in the world? I didn't see anything in your post that would violate any of the posting standards. What did I miss? People post photos of themselves in much less than what you were wearing all the time. Maybe @@Alex Brecher can enlighten us?

I'll post some offensive selfies...

I don't want to risk another deletion.

No, no...
That's not a worry...

It's just that work and sleep ALWAYS get in the way of my BP fun...

[KindaFamiliar 3,867]

And by 'offensive selfies' I mean saggy moobs and floppy, flabby apron pics...

Not anything else...

Shirtless KindaFamiliar is confronting, embarrassing and offensive enough!!

@@fatgirlsvelte I can't imagine! Your post was very uplifting. Maybe someone commented rudely and it was removed for that reason?? I don't know. But don't let it bother you either way. You have a great attitude and very positive outlook!

Why was the topic Beach Bikini Day removed? It was lovely.

Jealousy is an ugly thing. I'm sure the reason for deleting was the person requesting deletion doesn't love their body the way you have come to and was jealous. You were very brave and that's awesome! Stay this way all through your journey!

I'm sorry that happened to you. I read your post and don't understand why it would be removed. I wish I had your confidence. Don't let this be more than a minor blip on the radar.

I'm seriously hoping it was a mistake. A wrong button pushed. Seriously.

I saw this post and I didn't see anything that was objectionable in it. Generally the job of a moderator is to eliminate SPAM. This website gets hit with a lot of spam. Some of it is computer generated. And that waste a lot of time for the members of the site. These can be spotted fairly easily - first time poster, filled with babbling words, not on topic, a link at the end that leads to a sales pitch. This post was not spam.

Although I saw the post I didn't follow it throughout the day. It might be that one of the comments posted went way over the line.

I thought your post was great and I'm sorry this happened. Your courage is inspiring! Please stay and keep sharing your uplifting story of body positivity!

Hopefully Alex can answer this one because your post was the farthest thing from offensive!

I am guessing it was in error, please don't leave. I loved how you are approaching your future. Such positivity is so hard to come by.

Please stay?!!

​Sincerely appreciate it. It does make me feel a bit better to see all of this as a response instead of whomever decided to report. Hopefully it was a mistake...

I think instead of posting many updates/questions, I'll just pipe down and continue to use Tumblr/IG/Twitter/YouTube to go about documenting my journey. If anything big pops up, then I'll post here. May change my mind...just still a bit bummed out about the whole thing, you know? I have been seeing this in-person at the classes (competitiveness, not being nice), and thought perhaps it wasn't going to reflect online since people have more of a buffer between our individual challenges.
