Hi I have been dieting been for about 28 months and have used my fitness pal for the last 305 days.

I have lost nearly 50lbs in total and using my fitness pal has become part of my life and now I am about 18lbs away from a healthy weight and my goal.

In this time I have become,slimmer,healthier and I am getting a better body.

Some of my family and friends are very supportive but my parents always say things like

you never eat the same as us
you're always weighing stuff
you have become obsessed

in one way they are pleased that I'm slimmer but they could be a bit more supportive, do you also experience the same problems from family and friends?

    The struggle is real! I have a very supportive husband and mother, but my friends are always trying to get me to 'live a little' and 'have fun'. I tell them I am living and having fun, I'm just making healthier choices for my health and ask that they respect it. I have only been at this for 91 days, so your dedication of 28 months is inspiring! I hope that 25 months from now that I will still be here working on a better me!
