    apparently, this is the time of the year when the New Year's Resolutioners become disenchanted because they haven't been able to lose 35lbs in 6 weeks, so they start quitting.
    Agreed

    It's February, when all the New Year's resolutionists realize this isn't easy. Or they aren't losing 10 pounds a week, like people on the Biggest Loser. So they quit, or whine about quitting.

    People need to realize that this process is slow and hard and you need mental toughness and will power to get through every day. Some people just don't have it.

    This is the time of year our gym starts freeing up again, and the zumba classes aren't so packed. The NY resolutioners are about done now :)

    I think it's a cry out for attention as well. In addition to the realization that this isn't easy, they simply don't have the support they need or want to keep pushing. But the trick is, I think you have to give a lot of support in order to get a lot back. And some people just don't.

    No amount of support will MAKE you do it though. You have to just DO IT.
