I've been losing weight and it is starting to show, and someone asked me if I was doing the HCG diet and I said, "No, I'm on the 'PWH.". This persons said they'd never heard of it. I just told them it means, PLAIN-WORKING-HARD. I thought it was kind of funny, but they were a bit offended. Doesn't anyone else get asked if they are on a fad diet and then come of with a creative way to expain, just plain working hard.

I don't care if people try fad diets, we are all responsible for our own diets and health, so I'm not knocking that; but I just really want credit for sweating my butt off.
