when does your dieting irritate other peep?Oct 09 2008 11:12
so my friends gave up on losing weight again - i dont know y when they were doing so well - the problem now is they can be bad influences when we go eat out bc now they dont care- they think oh it is like a cheat day- but they have like 3 cheat days a week then! I have a hard time sticking with this sometimes although still better then ashland peeps who really do not care!
y cant more of them want to better themselves - i only lack motivation bc i want peep to have the same ambition as me but they really dont. Whenever i bring up calories i feel its irritating them - but its a serious matter - we have to watch them FOREVER!
wow this is hard!
this is my dilemma now...fortunately my BF finally got it. My persistence paid off. i stayed strong and on it and now hes counting calories. I was good this last weekend for the first time in the 3months I've dieting and i was able to break my plateau. This is doable...i can eat everything i want...in moderation of course! lol. i cook fat free mostly so when I'm out i have an allowance. :)
Hope all is well! |
Its really hard when people dont get it - I struggled with my bf for years trying to explain the difference between his 'eating healthy' (ie. as long as you eat a balanced diet your fine) and my 'eating healthy' (ie. the same but within a calorie limit)!!! He still doesnt count, but he's feeling a bit chubby at the moment and thus is extremely happy to have the same as what I'm having :) I dont think the eating out is as hard anymore as I always check the restaurant's nutritional info before I go so I can make an informed choice. Eating at someone else's house is worse though - that was my downfall! |
