I have finally gotten settled into a great routine and I feel like I'm losing a lot of the support of some of my closest friends as explaining that "I need to go run" is a valid excuse for having a schedule conflict occasionally... Never knew putting myself first could be such a crime! would love to build a larger support network on here - I promise to return the favor!

    your friends, if they are true friends, will eventually understand. if they are truly your friends, they will be 100% behind your weight loss journey, and will be supportive even if it means you can't see them as often. Mine went from gawking at my schedule to lecturing me if i slack off because they know it's important to me :)

    stick with it, give them some time to adjust, explain how important it is to you.

    if they still don't get it, then you have better things to do with your time, and more positive people to be around instead :)
