Also she could be a bad influence when it comes down to food but I love the fact that I prove I do have self control 🙌🏼😏

That's sad, you can not tell them anything because you hurt their feelings, the funny thing is that those people do have the courage to criticize your lifestyle

Rosio— I have struggled with this for years. The more you say— it alienates people. And yet I have had to sit back and watched a number of friends and acquaintances — just this year— have heart attacks, strokes and four died because of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure related issues. . It is tremendously discouraging to see people die because of what they are stuffing into their mouths.

I offered help to my relative that was complaining on Facebook about her weight, and you know what, that was a mistake 😐

I know how they feel, they don’t want to hear it...I was just like them

Honestly its probably easier to keep your mouth shut but me being me opened my mouth and boom nope never again. All you can do is pray they have a health scare that doesn't kill them but makes them wake up

Yeah that sucks well when I get annoyed I do housework or go for a walk works wonders getting all that negativity out. I see emotional pain as a negative

I totally understand how you feel b/c I’m doing the same with my own family since I’ve changed my woe and exercise. It’s hard but they have to want the change as well and I try not to nag too much and only hope they will make up their minds to what “they” need to do.

Nope, when you are eating like that and dont "get it " yet you dont want someone else telling you. Its offensive. ...if you're really close to them just share your tips when its good timing of things you do to overcome the need to eat certain things or drink the calories.. then if they are interested , they will ask you .

I struggle with it in my home every day. I used to try to push healthy eating on my husband by making his lunches, avoiding buying unhealthy snacks, baking healthy dessert alternatives, etc, but he doesn't care to hear it because it doesn't matter to him. he purchases garbage throughout the work day that completely reverses any potential progress he could be making from my "control" on his eating habits, and once I finally realized this and stopped trying, I be been so much happier. I now just focus on myself and setting the right example for my kids and hope that one day he will want the same for himself and my journey has become much more enjoyable and a lot easier!

you can only live your life. lead by example and when they are ready, they'll follow.

People have to find their own motivation to change. Look at studies of drug and alcohol addiction: Addicts who get clean either hit rock bottom or get ordered to do it by courts. For me, it took the onset of a serious health condition (type 2 diabetes) to get the weight off.

I struggle with this everyday at work. There are only 3 of us in our office so we are fairly close. One of these coworkers had a heart attack at the office last year. When she came back she is doing a great job of going to the gym and eating better. This helped push me to get better as well. We both have tried with the other person we work with to join us with no luck. As said by many others you won't change till your ready. There isn't anything you can do or say they will have to choose for themselves.

Maybe by them seeing you and your wonderful progress will change something in them. Maybe they will not consume alcohol mixers and drink vodka or tequila instead and that would be a good start. I went to a party Friday a young lady asked my husband was I dieting and he stated yes. Im not-I am learning to make better choices I don’t have to eat Birthday cake or anything else just because it’s there. I don’t want to return to 175 lbs.

The best thing you can do is when you’re eating with her stick to your diet and make no mention of her weight. You can lead by example. I had a good friend who saw me when I was bigger and the next time she saw me I had dropped the weight. We ate at an Italian restaurant, I skipped the breadsticks and booze and stuck with a salad. She later asked about my diet and I told her. She dropped 100 lbs the next time I saw her. She’s not going to make any changes to her lifestyle until she’s ready to. She needs a “wake-up” experience.

I think if people ask and are ready to lose weight then advice should be given. but to assume and judge peoples choices is shitty.
