Old habits?!



Recommended Posts

I am at my goal. I am having the problem of people close to me telling me to eat more . You are too thin. My doctor tells me I'm healthy. I can maintain by eating nutritious foods and by making smart food choices. As I am able to eat more varieties of food it's becoming more challenging to do that. He said the main thing is to monitor your weight gain within 3-5 pounds. If you start to gain change your food choices. I also have a Protein shake in the morning and a Protein Bar in the afternoon or evening. I'm less likely to over eat when I'm taking my Protein . Each person will decide what healthy food choices they want to make . This is not a diet anymore . It's a life style change. I'm trying to erase the dieting from my memory. Diet foods can make you fat. I look for high nutrition value in foods now because I only eat small portions and I feel full fast. I hope to hear from other people maintaining weight loss and anyone who wants to share on this topic. Thanks for sharing your ideas!

When people tell you to eat more or that you're too thin just tell them "Thank you for your concern, but I'm following my doctor's orders and I'm healthier than I have been in years!". Who can argue with your doctor? I know, some people still will! Lol. But you can also listen politely, nod your head, and let it go in one ear and out the other...

I keep the peace and smile and say similar things. I know I do feel better than I've felt in a long time. Thanks for sharing. I was wondering how other people deal with the comments.
