WHY!!

Options
Can some please explain to me why people need to be so competitive between each other?
It's so sad! I mean clearly you aren't going to both lose weight at the exact same time or anything else!
A little healthy competition is completely normal but seriously it's like get a different hobby would ya
I consider weightloss a personal journey not something I'm Doing because I have to
RANT OVER!!

    I was just thinking along the same lines today. Someone doesn't bother with their health until the person they secretly compare themselves to (you) is now smaller. Isn't it nice not being the bigger or biggest person in the crowd.

    All living organisms compete against one another in life. Animals in the wild compete for territory, food and mates. They try to "one up" each other. It's natural. Some are more competitive than others. Don't worry about it, just concentrate on you.

    I honestly just feel frustrated by it, if they spent as much time
    Looking at copying what I do they would have some great results
    To show, I guess I sound like a cow for saying that, but I'll be honest
    And say what I feel lol
    And yes your right I love being smaller lol!!!
