Why is it so hard to stay committed

You just started?

What are you having trouble with?

In all honest, completely agree with gemiller87’s comment, and in addition, changing your habits while around other people who have bad habits(or habits that are healthy for them vs you) make it super hard! I found I became even better at staying committed when I go away to college, since when I go back home my family generally only eat rice and meat. For some members in my family this is okay, because they are active and have a lot of lean muscle mass(although of course even for them adding veggies would an added plus), but for losing weight this is terrible, and I end up overeating as a result. In all honesty, I think if I wasn’t able to physically detach myself from the eating habits of my household it would be 10x harder, and take longer for me to get to where I am now, since I would have less space to learn to appreciate veggies and eating at moderate portions. It’s especially hard since I get shamed for not “choosing” to eat as much as other taller, more lean family members. It’s super annoying because I’m the shortest in my family, and I come to realize a lot of people don’t understand as a 5’3’’ short woman I am not supposed to eat the same portions as a 6’ man! It’s super annoying when you’re constantly being told “why are you starving yourself?” or “that’s all you’re going to eat? Stop being cute!”
