edited November 2024 in Goal: Maintaining Weight
Always feel like I bore friends & family when I talk about healthy eating and fitness so I thought I'd get in touch with people who also enjoy it as much as I do!!

    It's starting to become a favorite topic for me. The more I learn, the more interested I am.
  • I totally agree. Talking goals/progress helps to keep you motivated though!

    I'm the same about it. And then feel deflated when my friends and family (even my gf!) really don't give a crap. Thankfully we have MFP.

    I do a lot of reading posts to pick up ways to maintain and lose.

    I have also noticed that talking about fitness with coach potatoes doesn't go over to well. That's why I'm here.
  • I bore my friends and workmates regulary and I love it, they think I am obsessed perhaps they are right haha

    These are my people!

    Friends/family in real life are probably exhausted with me since I can't seem to stop talking about diet and fitness. I sound like a robot programmed to only spout off about macros, calorie counts, circuit training, and interval running.

    Always welcome more MFP pals, feel free to add me!

    I try hard not to talk about diet but people near my age ask questions and I answer them. They think I have an easy time of it when I am really holding on by the skin of my teeth. They hardly ever what to be my close friend or a nice friend on the fringes. It is one of my favorite subjects however. Heavy people don't think I have a clue as to how to lose weight.
