Sorry to rant here and waste your time, I feel vulnerable and disgusted with myself after an encounter with one of my closest friends. She’s been doing keto with her hubby for a month now and it’s worked well for them. Every time I meet her, she lectures me on how keto is the best and everything else is farce nd so I’ve limited our hanging out lately. I ran her into the grocery store today. I’ve been doing CICO and it’s been slow but do-able. I’ve lost 4 pounds so far. Could have lost more but I’m content coz I didn’t starve or binge too much. Today, she saw me walk past the cake counter and pause and she comes up to me and said “ OMG we were thinking don’t grab that cake it’s unhealthy for you”. I KNOW THAT. I don’t even have a sweet tooth, I’m Meeting my hubby after six weeks and wanted to get a small slice To split with him. I felt so repulsed by her admonishing me, I could empathize so deeply with many other people who usually get ticked off by unsolicited advice. I mean usually unsolicited advice is actually for the better good. I know that cake is bad for me, and I have committed to CICO for past four weeks without binging on cake or chips (a huge feat for me esp chips and fries). So I genuinely don’t want a keto person admonishing how carbs are evil. I told her that “ don’t be that keto couple who walks upto people in grocery stores and judges their cart”. I said it half jokingly and she didn’t say anything. Her husband has lost weight and I’m so happy for him so I complimented them and rushed to leave them. I know it’s pathetic for me to feel insecure, I’m fat and have about 10-12 pounds to lose, I can’t commit to cutting out carbs forever or get passionate about their lifestyle coz I’m mostly vegetarian. I am genuinely not interested to meet them until I achieve a next milestone. I’ve lost 4 pounds so far and I have 10 more to go, it’s gonna be tough but I’ll do it with my hubby. God, sorry rambling. I feel better after anxiously typing this out. Lol, I sure have thick skin but I ain’t thick skinned but wish me luck!! 😅
Cheers!
