Recently I am starting to notice more and more the changes in me regarding my weight loss. I am getting stronger, my clothes are getting looser and I can feel my body getting slimmer. Over the past week or two I am getting people noticing and commenting on my weight loss. Generally comments like “you’ve lost weight.. I can see it” and “wow you are looking good” But what really grinds my gears is this comment which I have received more than once over the past couple of days…
“you’ve lost weight.. what’s your secret”
Now normally getting that kind of comments wouldn’t bother me as I think its great people are noticing cause it means its working and only motivates me to keep going.. it’s the look or comment I get when I reply to this.. my reply is usually…
“well the BF and I have cut out junk food, we are eating more vegetables, cut back on pop, exercise at the gym on a regular basis etc etc – basically hard work”
The look I have got by saying that is like pure insult. Its almost like they were expecting me to say some magic pill, surgery or perhaps illness that caused me to loose this weight.. were they expecting me to say that and pass the “secret” on. I have found a few people give me that look over the past little while… and it boggles the mind that people still can’t except that hard work exercising and eating right is the best thing for weight loss.
I know I still have a long way to go to reach my goal but I am sure as hell motivated to continue exercising and eating right to reach that goal. I just think its time to work just a little harder :)
Rant.. over..
