Diet Sabotage

Do you ever feel like people say things to try to sabotage your diet? Like comments to try and get you side tracked or to make you feel like it is useless to try to lose weight.

Yes!!! I had a friend come stay with me Monday and Tuesday. She turned her nose up at every ounce of healthy food I have in my house ( which is everything). She even made the comment, " Well can't you splurge with me? ". I told her, "no way!!" I did end up splitting a pizza burger with my son, which in itself wasn't too high in calories, but to me, it wasn't worth the waste of calories. I'd have much rather had something here at home.
I am determined. My mindset is changed, I don't want to go back to making harmful choices. It's much more important to me to be fit and healthy.

I am amazed by how much food you can eat when it is good food. You can really fill up and it will still be in the right calorie range. I have quit living off of Ham Sandwiches and Little Debbies. I normally eat meat and veggies and occasionally rice. But I dont do that very often. People think I am crazy when I dont eat the cookies. They look at me like arent you even tempted. What they dont understand is that I am very tempted but I trying to exercise my willpower. I will splurge every now and then when I have plenty of calories to spare but I try not to make a habit of it.
