Hi All! Today is the first day of the rest of my life, so they say! I went to my seminar, and I have everything I need to start this journey. I have my next to do list, and then the ball will really start rolling! Has anyone out there had the experience of being happy and excited about this decision, and then have your significant other, family, or friends bombard you with negative comments? Comments that make you feel ashamed that you can't just "eat less and excercise" to lose that weight? Don't these people understand how much we all have struggled and tried and failed with the regular weight loss tactics? And, especially when a thin person says those things, it hurts even more! How in the world would they know? How have you overcame these things? Is there a way to get these people to respect your decision and support you anyway? I hope it gets better, because I am determined this time. Thanks for any advice you can give me!
