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!!!!!
