So much negativity!
I don’t blog very often, nor am I very active in the BS community, however, I do take the time every day to read as many blogs as I can…and I must say, there is soooo much negativity going on lately! It makes me not want to read anymore! I thought this site was about coming together and supporting each other, not saying negative things about the ONE PERSON who is ALWAYS there for EVERYONE. Over the past few weeks, I’ve seen (on more than one occasion) a blog in some way directed towards Nancy. Now, Nancy and I do not speak very often, but I will say this: Her blogs are the first ones I read. Why? because she is real, honest and struggles every day just like the rest of us. She puts herself out there (good, bad and indifferent) in hopes that she can make someone else’s day a little easier. She is living proof that if we want something bad enough, we can achieve it with healthy eating and exercise, not diet pills or fad diets. Yes, Nancy speaks her mind, but she does it in a POSITIVE way and I’m sure most of you will agree with me when I say that Nancy is an inspiration to all of us…and if you don’t agree with me, that’s fine, just keep your negativity to yourselves because we are all better off without negative people in our lives.
I couldn’t agree with you more. The problem is that we all have our own opinions and some people on here are just not ready to understand that the world doesn’t revolve around them. I think it is great to read a post from someone who obviously understands it; but also embraces it. Thanks for such a great post.
negativity sucks!!!
Oh honey! I didn’t even see this till now.
You brought tears to my eyes!!!
I am so moved by your blog. At first I was afraid to open it because I’m like oh no, not me again and how is my heart going to take it today?
WOW I HAVE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE GRATITUDE I FEEL RIGHT NOW!
Most of us sign on every day to support each other, get inspiration, log our calories, read blogs, etc. But it just seems like lately, the high school drama is at an all time high. The last time I checked, we were all adults…so why the childish attacks? It’s something that I usually won’t involve myself in, but when I see that someone who I respect and quite honestly, look up to, is being attacked in some way, I take offense to it. Since the day I joined this site, I have made an effort to read your blogs every day. You are real…you put yourself out there and sometimes, you’re just straight up insane! but I freakin’ love it. You are someone I can truly relate to. So don’t let anyone get you down. Keep doing what you’re doing and don’t look back! We all love you girl!
Thanks for writing this, Nancy is such an inspiration, she deserves all the accolades she can get. This is awesome
No thanks are needed! I am just speaking the truth…A day without a Nancy blog is a very boring day! She is just awesome! The immaturity level that I am finding on this site lately is just ridiculous. BS is about support and motivation but certain people are treating it like it’s one of those other social networking sites, talking about someone behind the safety of their computers. Grow up people! Most of us have been out of high school for quite awhile so stop the gossip! We all love Nancy! She’s been on quite a weight loss journey and she should inspire every one of us…She is proof that it can be accomplished! I mean, look at her! :o)
