Sick & Tired of being Bullied (progression pics + video)

Its not something new sadly, being massively overweight my entire life. Bullies have been something I have just had to deal with, especially when I was still over 500 pounds. Progression Pictures

Since losing 240ish pounds I can honestly tell you that I am starting to stand up for myself. Oh the haters still try, even in this subreddit my last post I had more than a few haters try to drag me down. Lots of negative feedback left on the thread as well as on my videos because I choose to have weight loss surgery to save my life. (Don't like my choices, not your life... so its not my issue move along)

So with that said... Here is what recently happened at the gym.. I walked into the locker room, a ton of woman in there between classes. When I walked into the restroom portion there were three girls (early twenties) standing at the sink and one of them blatantly exclaimed as if I wouldn't hear ..i just don't know how people even let themselves go like that. (the others start laughing and responding) So I decided enough was enough, I yelled as loud as I could from my stall... Well I used to be a bully who made fun of people... And refused to mind my own business and next day I woke up like this... Karma man... it's a b*tch.. I have never seen three sets of feet leave so fast .. My Response Video (skip past workouts if you like)

As i went out for my workout I decided to continue my routine none of them would even look at me. I am sure they didn't expect me to say something back either. I could have choose to sit in fear and cry, wait for everyone to leave and sulk home. BUT HELL NO i am saving my life here, you don't know me, or how hard its been i am NOT leaving. And i won't allow anyone to talk down to me like that again. If you don't stand up for yourself NO ONE will!

You never know how hard it was for me to even get to this size, or how long I spend in the gym each week. I work out 5-6 days a week 2 hours minimum, I count every morsel of food that enters my mouth. I work harder than most people even dream of, because I want this. I have seen death and choose to beat it and well NO ONE is going to take that from me. I don't give two half's of a sh *t if you don't like how i had to change my life.

If you are being bullied online, ignore them (hate only begets hate) feel sorry for them. (everyones a tough guy when there is a screen between you and them) It is easy to get wrapped up in it and let it bring you down. Don't give them that power, stand proud of your accomplishments. Because you are changing your life and trying to become a healthier you. If you are bullied at the gym stand your ground, be fierce and stand up for yourself. Let them know you won't take that from anyone! (Im not saying go grab a barbell and smash their faces in, as tempting as it could seem) But report them, stand up and make your presence known. You are wonderful, beautiful/handsome and unique. Your journey matters damn it!!!!
