dianasarles's Journal, 26 May 2018

Had an emotional day yesterday! Not because I’m not doing well, in fact I’m very proud of the changes I’ve made and continue to make. I’m down 15lbs and am truly determined to continue to get where I need to be. But the temptations I face everyday seems to be getting harder. And the emotional part comes from these temptations always offered by friends/coworkers and sometimes even my husband. I know they all love and care for me but they don’t seem to understand how much it hurts when they ALWAYS ask me if I want some, and of course it’s stuff I can’t. The worse part is after I say no (which inside I’m screaming yes) the say are you sure.. uuuggg 😡😡 of course I want some, of course I hate that I have to say no, of course I hate the fact that I have to watch what I eat, of course I have to be the fat one and can’t have what I want, but I always end with yes I’m sure, thank you though. Ye

Some people don't get it. My mother is the same way about some things.

They have no idea the struggle everyday, every meal, every decision.. but I’m still being strong, just not sure for how long

Amazing how strong you are to resist. I promise you will not regret it!!

I don't know what you crave or the best way for you personally to eat but maybe you might benefit from a few more calories and maybe researching different macro percentages? I know i don't struggle nearly as much when I've eaten a fewer carbs and a some more fat. But I'm insulin resistant so that may factor in.

I’m not craving anything really, it’s just the ones I love always trying to get me to eat their stuff.. I’m constantly being asked several times a day while I’m eating my heathy food if I want there not so healthy food lol. I do have to say my determination is strong as hell. I’m just tired of being asked when they know I’m trying to lose weight. But thank you guys so much for being here I have no one to talk to that gets it

I think the best thing you can do for yourself is to just say to them exactly what you said to us, then end it with that it why I am not. I am eating heathly and then just smile.

After just a short time I have my office trained. They know I am on weight watchers and will not offer me treats since they know I will say no. There will always be food and snacks that you will need to avoid - don't let it bug you. Just do your thing. But let everyone know how you feel. People often don't realize they are sabotaging us unless we tell them.

Thank you, I will tell them to stop.. I will try to explain to them that them asking me constantly is not helping. I just needed to vent thank you all so much.

I know exactly how you feel. I had to tell them in a nice way to stop offering me things I couldn't have. And then there are some that will do it anyway and I just say no and keep it moving.

That’s why I prefer to eat alone. I’ll hit a BBQ, but I always say I’ve already eaten. Or I just brushed my teeth!

I started to tell people, you tryin to kill me? I’m diabetic. Yo, no room over here for ambulance 🚑

Be selfish. Real change requires it. Rare indeed is the friend who truly delights in your transformation. Most people are petty and want you stay just as you are to maintain their comfort. Human nature.

PS - When deep in a cut, I have been known to sneak into the kitchen and run all that crap down the garbage disposal. Highly recommend.

I have found a way to answer those well intended people, “The truth is that, yes, I want to eat it, but I am not going to. Thank you for asking. Hopefully it works for you. It’s a struggle every day!
