WHY PEOPLE DO THIS TO YOU?

I'm starting to develop a theory on this. I think it's ultimately a matter of people like to see how serious you are about it by testing your convictions. There's so many people out there who go on diets all the time and fail that I think people have become very synical toward the idea. So when someone they know is making a diet improvement they almost subconciously decide to test that person's dedication and seriousness about losing weight by testing them. For some I think it almost becomes a challenge to see if they can get you to "cheat".

Its amazing that you find people/strangers are in the same predicament as you.This is sooooo funny that's not even funny :noway: . Even with the "Its too much for me help me eat it, I just don't want to waste food". :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I been healthy all my life working out I have a good body but I could of had it to the point of being shredded. Why you ask I didn't its because people was shoving me food left and right. My in-laws cooking on Holidays "THE BEST SOUL FOOD EVER" :embarassed: but the reason I had to eat its because the the excuses my wife or in-laws used to say to me "its disrespectful to not eat the food and blah blah blah and going to make my mom,grandma,uncle not invited us no more" It was just excuses and I should of known better, but I gave in. This time is not going to work no more, my mind is made up and I'm going to be so shredded its going to be SWEEEEEEEET!:blushing: Just keep that in mind, my MFP people that once you give in once, its bound to happen over and over. JUST SAY NO! STAY FIRM,

It never bothers me when people offer me food. I'm fully capable of saying no. I've never had anyone continue to pester me. I would love to help these people understand the definition of "no" in my own special way, but I never get to have any fun...

I tell them that I just became a vegan. That pretty much stops all the decadent food offerings.

This just happened to me today. A friend and neighbour on FB posted a picture of some lush chocolate cookies. I commented 'Oh I can't imagine the calories in those!' He knows that I am hitting the gym and eating better. So he texts me not 2 hours later asking if he can stop by for a catch up with the hubby and I oh and can he bring the cookies? Ummm no, no cookies. Then he tells me he doesn't want to eat them all, they will just make him fatter. Oh hello dingdong, maybe you shouldn't have bought them???
