Oops they said it again

[gman1961]

Whilst out in a restaurant,someone who should know better said why you are bothered about what you eat?

Hello why don't they keep their thoughts to themselves.

Yes I'm in holiday ,but as they eat then drink themselves into oblivion.

I have spent the last 5 weeks trying to sort myself out.

Yes I'm on holiday and yes I am eating healthier and having the odd treat .

The people who should know the best should know better.

Rant over ,and that is a long one for me .

Enjoy your holiday 🌞⭐️☀️

Gary

[Marylou54]

Well done for sticking to your guns - attaboy Gary!!!👍👍

[gman1961 in reply to Marylou54]

They would be better not to say anything I'm more determined now .

Gary

[EllaMidlands]

They are probably feeling guilty themselves. If we all are mindfully then we would have no need to be guilty and probably not so fat either. Keep doing what feels right to you.

[gman1961 in reply to EllaMidlands]

I will do thanks Ella Midlands..

I sense a bit of jealousy from ' someone who should no better ' gman1961 You have succeeded on your healthy eating and are now enjoying your success so don't let anyone else influence your choices. Your doing great. Enjoy your hols.😎🌞

[gman1961 in reply to Hidden]

[IndigoBlue61]

Some people need to blow out your flame so theirs appear to shine brighter 😊

Well done Gary

[kiwikyd-nz in reply to IndigoBlue61]

Well said Anna61 They can just go puff somewhere else lol

[gman1961 in reply to kiwikyd-nz]

Thanks ,they are saying other stuff today ,I'm boring because I don't eat this and that and I go jogging .

Gary

[gman1961 in reply to IndigoBlue61]

Saying more today,so I hit back .

Gary

[87down in reply to gman1961]

Don't blame you. Hope it doesn't spoil your holiday. Stay strong and tell them you enjoy running and eating healthily it makes you feel better - suggest they give it a try instead of nagging at you!

[gman1961 in reply to 87down]

I'm not a teenager lol,having to justify what I do lol.

Need to look at themselves.

Gary

[87down in reply to gman1961]

Good on you!

[kiwikyd-nz in reply to gman1961]

They definitely sound jealous and probably ashamed of/embarrassed/angry with themselves. They're taking out their feelings about themselves on you.

In a really backward way it's almost a compliment

Good on you for saying something to them though. You shouldn't have to take that sort of treatment from family or friends.

Tell them it's the new you and if they don't like it then it's their loss. Then go for a run and let them stew on it for a while.

[gman1961 in reply to kiwikyd-nz]

They know I'm trying to loose weight .makes me more determined now .

Gary

Glad you had a rant - better out than in.

Hope you're enjoying your holiday Gary, and that you have some nice weather, lovely food options and chance for plenty of enjoyable activities.

[gman1961 in reply to Zest]

Come back relaxed and ready for Christmas.

[87down]

Well done for sticking to what matters to you, I don't know why some people always feel the need for us all to be sheep....... My daughter has never liked the taste of alcohol it's taken her friends nearly 10yrs to accept that she doesn't drink because she dislikes the taste - funnily enough they are more than happy for her to be the driver every time they go out.....! Enjoy the rest of your holiday and stick with your plan you are doing great

[gman1961 in reply to 87down]

Good job that we are not all the same .

Thanks

Gary

[Ceals]

You are so right Gary, some people can’t cope with someone else doing what they should.

Stick with it Gary, you are doing fab.

[gman1961 in reply to Ceals]

Driving me mad .

Thanks

Gary

[BridgeGirl Administrator 2 stone]

Nothing like a good rant Gary that's what we're here for

Thanks mary

Thanks

[mistymtnhop333]

Good on you, stick to what you know you need and want for yourself! I am also apprehensive about going back home for the holidays - because I know that on top of the usual holiday treats in abundance, there will be comments like this one by well-meaning loved ones.

Well intentioned or not, it's not helpful - particularly when you've worked hard for five weeks to create new habits/minset. Keep true to yourself!

[gman1961 in reply to mistymtnhop333]

I'll be glad to get home if this carries on .

I talked about my efforts in losing weight to them .I shouldn't have to explain.

Gary

[13Valerie]

Hey Gary I find it amusing when people say things like that to me. I act all curious about what they've said and show them that I find it hard to understand why they're so obsessed with what I'm eating, when I hardly notice what they're eating and would NEVER dream of being so rude as to judge and pass comments 😁 ha! It's jealousy and you're really bugging them! ENJOY!!!!

[gman1961 in reply to 13Valerie]

I've now commented on how much they drink .

Thanks Gary

[kiwikyd-nz in reply to gman1961]

lol Bet that went down like a ton of bricks

[Bjosephine]

Comments are just that and unless inspired by them just ignore and blank them

[gman1961 in reply to Bjosephine]

I've started to hit back now .

Thank you for your support .

Gary

[Ceals in reply to gman1961]

Brilliant - go you!

You stand up for all us healthy eaters Gary.

[gman1961]

Why do others get so eat up about what I do ?

Gary

[13Valerie in reply to gman1961]

Jealousy Gary.... they are jealous!!!

Enjoy .... you're really getting under their skin😊

don't let them get under yours.....

[MotherPip]

Good for you...great willpower. It's hard sometimes when people do this... I knocked back the offer of a much lusted after Chinese takeaway last week..hard but glad I did it. Eat on your terms and not everyone else's.

[gman1961 in reply to MotherPip]

I will do ,thank you.

Gary
