I have lost more than 30lbs. I am proud of myself and how far I have come. I was at an event this weekend that I saw a lot of people who I havent seen in more than 6 months. I heard a TON of comments about my weight loss...some very sweet saying I looked great, others say your getting too skinny and need to bulk up (whatever) but.....All of them asked "How did you do it?" When I told them about MFP and that I changed my lifestyle, started watching my calories but that I wasnt dieting and working out 30 minutes a day. ALL of them seemed disappointed. Its like they wanted me to say I had Lypo or had taken some magic pill. They all seemed disappointed that I didnt have a magic seceret. Nope NO Magic Pill just hard work!!

Its hurtful because they didnt acknowledged that I worked my butt off to get here!

At least I know you that you all know that the secret is that there is no secret! Its dedication and hard work that gets you where you want to be!!!!!

    Yeah, everyone just wants a quick fix :/ It's hard work doing it the right way but it's so worth it in the long run.

    Good for you losing 32 lbs! That's awesome :)
