Question

Is anybody else like me, only posting your weight loss journey on this page? For some reason, I don’t understand, I don’t want to share this with my Facebook friends and family. 

Answer 1

I didn't tell anybody I was even doing this except my mom and husband for like 2 months. I lost over 40 lbs so far and I can count on one hand the compliments I have gotten from friends. I have learned alot through all this with all the negativity people have but it actually just makes me want it even more!  

Comments

@anastice I know it's sad. I know I have people betting that I'll gain it all back. But honestly I have never been so determined in my life about something.

@critic87 Some people don’t like to comment on others weight. I never make comments on someone’s weight. I also hate having to talk about the diet. It makes me feel uncomfortable. Like I’m bragging or something.  

---

@favored I can see that. I feel like that too

---

@critic87 you got this!  

Answer 2

I text my husband once I finish my weigh in with the total lost for the week. I'm not posting it online but some people at work will ask me each week. I share with them.  

Comments

@underprivileged same with my husband

Answer 3

I did exactly the same thing!  

Answer 4

I post on my personal Facebook every now and then. I think if anyone doesn’t like it, I don’t care! This is my journey and so far a lot of people have been so supportive.  

Answer 5

I’m only FB friends w/ positive people so I post my journey to inspire them!  

Answer 6

I don’t post anything on my page either. My family & coworkers know about my journey but I am not blasting it

Answer 7

I get it

@levin sigh  

Answer 8

I did not share my journey on Facebook until I was nearly done losing and people in public dis not recognize me anymore. So I posted an after pic telling people I lost almost 100 lbs and that this is me now, so please say hi when you see me and not act like we haven't known each other for years. Lol

Answer 9

I never said anything to anyone! Especially on Facebook I just let everyone notice on their own

Answer 10

I don't share with family or friends because sadly i get criticized. I had a relative message me once & say with All this dieting and working out u better b a size 2 next time i see you. So. I don't post any success

Comments

@metalware size 2 is not always success. Success is when you realize how important you are and are comfortable with yourself. You are a winner no matter what size.

@faust thank you. My main goal isn't necessarily to lose weight. My main goal was at 1st to get my diabetics under control. I believe life is more important. Now that I've done that. now i can concentrate more on weight loss.  

Answer 11

I do the same thing @plectrum99. Everyone in this group is so positive and gets where we’re coming from! Thanks you to you all for keeping focused and on track ❤️

Answer 12

Me too!  

Answer 13

Me too

Answer 14

We are A private group so then info doesn’t get posted to everyone.  

Answer 15

Yes i only post on this page. Everyone here is very supportive and know what I'm going through

Answer 16

10 months into the program someone at work (another office) mentioned that I had lost a lot of weight. I've been on this or a year and lost 73 lbs. ; would be more but had a setback after my mother passed away. But I maintained and kept my weight within 5 lbs. Now I'm back on track. My co-workers know I'm on the protocol altho I have to remind them it's "not keto" like some of the guys are doing so I can't feast on bacon and cheese - LOL! They're Marines, what can I say? :) I post on Janeva's site and here because of the great support offered. Once in a while I will post on my public FB page.  

Answer 17

When I diet I usually post it to Instagram and facebook, but this time around I want to keep to myself because If i mess up i don't want to look like a failure. Plus I want people to be wowed when they see me. Good luck on your journey
