How do you deal with non-supportive people?

How did other's deal with disbelievers who want to discourage them from a life of freedom and joy?

well! in my case my parents did not like the idea of me having a surgery to lose weigh, but hey it was my health that was at stake, my life was at risk,, and honestly i would not have care if they did not support me.... i would still go ahead with the procedure...Thnx GOd i met Dr. Ortiz Yesterday and he helped me convinced my parents that the procedure was safe and that it would work... maybe u can do the same thing....Dr ortiz is a great guy and he will make u feel confortable..... u shouldn;t care about other people's opinion, and their opinions should not affect your decision... U should only think about yourself and be selfish, others are not suffering and going through the things u go throuhg because of your weight!! keep it up!!! and good luck!!

Ignore them,

I had skeptics but now 16 months later down 95 lbs from a size 22 to a 10

They all are believers and a little jealous too

Your success will show them all!

Get rid of friends who are like this, as they are not true friends at all. As for family, well... we all have at least one that drives us nuts.
