Need advice about responding to family and friends!

Hi everyone! First off, I'd like to say how much I love how inviting and fantastic ya'll have been in aiding and motivating me in my life style change. I could not have done this without the mfp community! I do need some advice, though. My friends and family have been huge supporters of me losing weight and eating healthy. They are always commenting on how great I look and how they can notice my huge weight loss. However, I have noticed a couple of comments about how they don't understand why I can eat such "boring" foods (most days I eat baked/grilled chicken and spinach, broccoli or other vegetables for my meals) and still be happy because "life is short and so we should always be eating sweets and foods that we love". When I tell them that I love my new healthy eating habits (even though eating broccoli or chicken all the time can get a little hard), they can't believe that I enjoy eating that way. To them, all I do when eating is see each food as more calories that I'm putting into my body. While I do count every calorie (healthy or unhealthy), I don't feel guilty putting unhealthy foods into mfp because I deserve to treat myself. I know it's difficult for them to understand weight loss and calorie counting because many of them have never gone through it. I want to explain to them that I am very happy eating healthy meals. While I definitely do enjoy unhealthy meals every so often, I do still see those foods as "yummy" and not just as extra calories. They have been so supportive and I know that they don't mean to say these things in a negative way, but I just don't have a good answer to help them understand what it's like. Does any one else see this in their family/friend circles? Weight loss and eating healthy is a life style change that is so much more than most people can comprehend beyond dieting and unless you have gone through it, it's difficult to understand. That's why I love having mfp because ya'll are going through what I'm going through as well!
