I have to vent,.. sorry!!!

Why do people/ Friends look at you like you're crazy because we count calories and workout alot??

They get upset becaues we don't wanna hang out,,,, Or do the things we once did,... Like go out for a bite to eat ,or just go out.... Sometimes I don't want to be around people who can't be on the same page as me...

This is what a friend called me tonight "Hello there obsessive trainer" and then said there is more to lfe than working out!!
It's funny how people say oh do you think you should lose a litte weight... Then say we are to obsedssed!!! Give me a break!!

I started working out in Augest.. And as to date there are things I could never dream of doing at the gym, that I can do now!!!! I'm in shock. with the little things I can do!

Like I said I really don't get it... Why do people on one hand say I think you should...... Then say I think you're working to hard.. uggggg

    I so get this too!!! I have a friend I have been going to the gym with and she goes to be seen and hang out! Doesn't want to do anything and is so unmotivating!!! I hate it. I feel bad I have been avoiding and only talking to her when we go to classes( which she walks out on midway). She says the same thing im obsessed and I cant lose enough weight or calorie counting wont work!
    lol I don't get it !!! Perfect topic

    I really feel like I'm in my own cult!!
  • Because there Jealous!!! I get the same thing my dad took pictures of me on a cruise I was in a bathing suit and when we got home to look at the pictures I couldnt believe all the fat that was hanging over and my parents said wow I think you need to lose a few (they said it in a loving way) so now that I eat healthy and exercise my dad says come on this piece of pie wont hurt you or this donut wont hurt you its like there jealous that we have willpower and motivation. You go girl!! DO YOU and feel good who cares what those other people think. My parents are starting to get supportive but I think they are like Frank and Marie on Everybody loves Raymond they always want to feed you and being Italian and coming from Italian food doesnt help. Stay strong and do YOU>
