Yes Riolis as you loose weight you will feel so much better. Self confidence will come with that. Don't worry about the haters, they aren't worth our time or concerns. We are all so much more than what is seen on the outside anyways. You will find a lot of wonderful , helpful people here and we are all striving for the same thing. Life is just to short to be concerned with those that are judgmental. I've done this woe now nearly a year and feel better than I think I ever have. This forum is awesome for support and the tools we need for success. Keep going, you'll be glad you did. Best of luck.
