Plus-size
model Rosie Mercado who shed 240lbs said she was targeted by 'fat
activists' who told her to kill herself after her dramatic weight loss.
The
mother-of-three from Las Vegas said she does not 'miss anything' about
being 410lbs but that she has received hate mail directed at her
transformed body.
The
36-year-old, who used to be a size 34 and is now a 12/14, was told to
'jump off a bridge and kill myself' by people who objected to her weight
loss, she claimed in an interview with TMZ.
'I
got hate mail...Not so much from the other models, just fans that hated
on me. They told me to go jump off a bridge and kill myself for losing
weight.
'Fat
activists, there you go. Yeah fat activists, they just hated the
thought I was really public about my weight loss and I was losing
weight,' she said.
While Rosie,
who now weighs 170lbs, 'loves' her slimmer physique and the 'freedom'
it has given her, she said some people reacted negatively to it.
She
said: 'Because I guess everybody loves to be happy in their own weight.
Some people love being overweight, some people don't.
