AlgaeGirl's Journal, 19 June 2009

I'm sure some of you have had a similar experience...

People at work are starting to notice my weight loss. "Hey...you're losing weight. How are you doing it?" And I tell them I'm trying to eat less junk and exercise more. Trying...sometimes I don't succeed. But that's it. And they look disappointed. "But how much have you lost?" And I tell them what I started at in February and where I am now. "And that's all you're doing?" Disappointment. I don't have a magic pill, or a magic drink, or a magic food or anything special. What are you all expecting?

yes, its always hard to hear that EVERYBODY is able to lose weight by getting involved and changing bad habits. incredible eh? that would be sooo easier to take a magic pill, do nothing and just wait for the results... at least they see you, and maybe it can make them think a little about it. keep up the good work, you're doing really good!
