I’m autistic and have special needs.
People used to bully me for just being
myself. I lost confidence. Some still call
me fat or tell me to lose weight. But
I am trying. I’m walking. Healing. Losing
weight. Finding myself again. This is
only the beginning.
#NeverGiveUp May 6, 2025 21:40Ben. You are FABULOUS just the way you are. There are mean people in the world that ache inside. When they say awful things to others, it’s a direct reflection of how THEY feel about themselves. Please know it has NOTHING to do with you. They just kinda suck as humans. Hopefully they will change.
Bullies are people who don’t know how to help others, so they hurt others.
Take care of yourself Ben, not for or because of THOSE nasty people, but because YOU DESERVE IT!
People can be mean but they are mostly ignorant. Being Autistic is like you’re special. Be proud .
Hi Ben...Continue to walk your path and your journey...you're doing just fine...no need to be someone else's vision of who they think you should or ought to be...Good for you and all that you're doing to be healthy and happy! Keep going! We're here!
Keep it going Ben! We're all supporting you!
#StrongerTogetherThat is the right spirit ! 👍
Ben, be thy self & true to it. For you will find beauty there❤️
People only bully you because they are afraid of your strength. My son is autistic strong and you are part of my family.
Dude, you take care of you.
Find what you do well, do it and excel in your life. Living well is the best revenge.
Stand tall friend. Not all of us are so stupid. Keep going.
Tune out the noise and keep going, brother!
Hi Ben! Keep up the work!
You are amazing, and an inspiration.
I reposted and am now following you!
you have a friend in Delray Beach that I can promise you
Good for you! I’m proud of you! We are all works in progress. I’m here pulling for you!💙
It is ok if you're autistic.
I'm obnoxious.
If someone treated you that way when I was around they would not enjoy my company. I don't even know you.
I just don't like assholes and will teach them what that word means. You're WAY nicer than some of us and we will be meaner than they were to you.
Heads up Ben. Be proud of who you are. Bravo !
Do it to regain confidence and force those people to deal with YOU, not a superficial image of you. You deserve respect. Best wishes.🐛🦋
Keep up the work!!! You got this!!!
I am sorry this is happening to you. Stay strong and know you are just as important to this world as anybody else.
BTW I sure like that shirt. LOL, guess where I live.
Fuck them!! You’re amazing!🤩you got this!💪
You keep on trucking buddy. You got this!
Haters are always MISERABLE PEOPLE!! Always from child to adult!
Look up your blood type diet. I only say that because after I caught covid from a colleague vax denier ( I had just got vax 3 days prior to catching covid in 2021)
After long covid, my blood type diet fixed many of my health & weight issues.
Just a freebie psa!
You’re inspiring ✌️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Nobody can hurt me without my permission.

Don’t give it to them. Stay strong my friend.
It’s not about speed, it’s about direction, your doing great 💯 💙😸
Every nobody is actually a somebody who doesn’t yet realize how incredible they are.
#nobody #empowerment #EverybodyIsSomebody #YouAreIncredible
good for you.
+ for *yourself.
+ because it feels right to *you
+ because you understand you're an integral part of our human community & we would all lose a vastly important piece of the human puzzle
it doesn't depends on you fitting into a shape that's easier to handle
be at peace w yourself 💕
Don’t listen to bully’s Ben..block right away..it’s great you’re walking. I find it helps my health too✌🏼
🌊 Oh, wow I LOVE walking but especially on the beach. If I could walk on the beach all the time I might. be at least 30% more sane.
You're amazing 💖
Never give up,
Never surrender, Ben.
"You got this, Ben."
Right on brother.
Your more of a man and leader than the fat, old,white whale with dementia will ever be.
Trump is just a gross highly unqualified crook.
Sending big hugs.
Ignore the haters.
Hey Ben , you are an inspiration my good man , come to Scotland, I'll help you explore and meet friends
It would be a pleasure
Keep it up buddy. Haters have only one desire - to make someone feel bad.
And there will always be them, everywhere.
Do what you love and what you feel progress in, even if it's very small. 🍀
❤️👊🏻❤️
For me you are Ben Canham ♥️
Wishing you all the best on your healing journey.
You will make it!💪
Don’t give in, Ben.
YOU are BRAVE so share with us. Keep your star shining! 🌟
Hang in there: lost 100 pounds in the last 14 months… I know the struggle.
Some of my most amazing students were autistic.
👍✊
You look amazing.
Yeah, being healthy is good but if it's any consolation... ❤️
Good on you Ben, you have a much bigger heart than those heartless, small minded, cruel people.
Keep up the good work, you have a lot more people backing you than backing them.
I'm a British Army veteran mate. We all have our challenges. I'm proud of you fella. Keep going and ignore the criticism. You can scrape their lives off the sole of your shoe later 👍
Keep going! I’m proud of you and your commitment to bettering yourself!
Great job! Keep it up. Don’t listen to those people.
Keep at it. You look great.
Do it, man! You got this!
Ben you rock ! You are walking the walk that is not for weak minded people. Bully’s are insecure, unhappy people. Ben you are the real deal…….. you are courageous.
Ben, just keep on rocking. You’re doing better than a lot of us.
🥹❤️🤗
All the best to you!!! You are doing great.
Fuck them man, you got this. You’re a bright light in this dipshit dark world.
🫂🫶
Bravo Ben, you should be very proud 🤩
You’re doing great, buddy! So proud of you!
Good for you!
You are on the right path -keep going!
You can do this and I'm proud of you -good job so far! 🙂
Fantastic photo of the beach there.
Dickheads. Sorry you have to deal with pieces of shit like that. Keep being your awesome self!
Ben you are doing great. Don't listen to the negative people. I think you look wonderful.
Your life is yours and it is all you have for being all YOURS.
Get some smiles (be happy) is far most improtant than lose weight.
Don't worry, man. You are just fantastic the way no one could ever be.
No one has the right to say how you should be 'cause you are one.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤜🏽🤛🏽
yo dude, thanks for sharing your story and your goals. You're a light shining bright right now. Keep at it and be happy. 😃
Rock on Ben! We got your back!
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Keep your chin up~
You are better than they are. Keep on pushing! 😀
I need you to understand . Their opinion does not matter ! And You Do.
And your voice matters. Do not give anyone a voice that causes you pain.
You deserve better .
You are better.
Good for you....keep going,we've got your back man!
God bless you!
Respect.
You’re awesome, Ben! Ignore the haters and just be your amazing self. 🫶🏼♥️🫶🏼
You GO, Dude! Do it for YOU. No one else's opinion matters ❤️
You be you. Everyone offers a unique gift. 💝
Keep up the great work! You've got this! 💪🚶♂️
Good for you, choose healthy😉
You're doing great! Walking is some of the best exercise, and it lets you see a lot of interesting things when you pay attention to what is around you as you go. People may sat mean things but you know what you are doing, so keep doing what's best for you and leave them to their assumptions.
Ben thank you for being yourself, that’s who the world needs. ❤️🎈
I’m proud of you and we love you for you.
Be proud of yourself no matter your size or abilities. You are beautiful just as you are. ❤️🤗
Just do what makes YOU HAPPY and screw the haters. dont let others define you. no matter what you do or how you look, others will try to make you feel bad. its their own insecurities that make them the crap humans they are. you do you and screw them. be happy and love yourself.
You go! You got this!
Keep living your best life. Enjoying what you do and screw anyone who disagrees. ❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯‼️
I'm proud of you Ben, all bullies are jerks, pay no attention to them, good luck w/ losing weight but you look fine to me
Take Care>John
Good Man YourSelf
Im proud of you Ben. You just keep being you, you are always enough. Wishing you the best on your road to health and happiness.💙
Don't listen to those PEOPLE. You are AMAZING.
You go, Ben!
One [autistic] human to another ...
I am proud of you. Good luck and keep it up!
YOU are SUCCEEDING! 💗
I believe in you! No one has the right to pass judgment.
You are perfect the way you are. Remember only hurt people hurt people. They are dealing with their own pain by sharing it with you in a very dysfunctional way.
I agree never give up!! Happy for you! You got this shit!
Good for you, Ben! I'm happy for you.
