1) I don't have anyone that I consider a "friend", however, I am around people and these people also aren't fitness enthusiastic as I am so when I mention anything about working out, they are extremely negative. They even will open up conversations mentioning working out only to patronize me which is highly annoying. They show pure jealousy because of the positive results that I've had working out. So... I stopped talking to them about working out at all and when they bring it up, I just change the subject because I know that they don't have a true interest in what I'm doing. Having said that, I want to start surrounding myself with people offline, online and in my personal life with the same fitness interest as I have. I want people who I can ask advice from and learn from, I want people who will be open to learning from me. I want to once and for all create the success and fit life that I've been struggling with and just want it to happen once and for all because I'm not getting any younger and I want to know what happiness and success within myself and surroundings feels like... I don't want my fitness journey to turn into "revenge" for those who didn't believe in me because that would still be giving them the credit they have been wanting but I want my fitness journey to CONTINUE TO BE ABOUT ME, MY SELF EVOLUTION AND PERSONAL GROWTH AS IT HAS STARTED OUT TO BE. The only way I feel it's necessary is if when I'm ready to have a conversation or wanting to learn more about different fitness techniques, lifestyles and journeys is to communicate only with people going in that direction.

    Feel free to add me
    I have been here for over 5 hrs and try to support daily. (sometimes 2 jobs, trying to be healthy, and life gets in the way of the constant support though)

    I feel the you!!! I want to better my life. Don’t get me wrong I love my friends but anything healthy I mention they act totally baffled and disgusted. I’m contemplating making new healthier friends but don’t know where to start.
