just a random observation, is it me or since you started your own weight loss journey that losing weight is the new trend, i even went into a mcdonalds for the first time in months and see they have a Under 400 cal menu. On other social media it seems everyone is on a diet or at the gym....where was this all last year? Anyone else noticed this?

    Maybe you just notice it more, because you are now focused on it

    Losing weight is always in.

    gaining weight is so 10 years ago.
  • I think a lot of people are beginning to realise that we cannot just keep getting bigger and bigger. Also there are a lot of shows on UK TV at the moment that are talking about how to lose weight and the benefits. All this starts to change society - hopefully in 10 years we will be reversing the obesity trend!

    I've noticed a difference in the type of weight loss in the last year or so.
    Girls are becoming ripped instead of the past "I do meth to lose weight" skinny.
    I think it looks much better :)

    I've noticed the same thing, and it's not just because you're doing it. I've been at it over 2 years now & it seems like just in the past year or so the media is more focused on it. Every year there are new weight loss shows coming out & more & more of your facebook friends have publicly announced that "it's time" & have started posting weight loss related stuff.

    Regardless, you're super cool because you are working on getting healthier. Carry on.
  • you probably just notice it more now
  • I was losing weight before it was cool.
  • Before this message I also have not thought about this.. thanks for sharing and Reminding ya i going to keep watch from now on..:frown:
