Some people don’t want you to be great

This was like two or three months ago. So I'm like, okay, cool. Thank you. And then she's like, what do you want? And I said, just give me a meatball sub, italian herbs and cheese, bread with cheese. She's like, that's it. And I was like, oh, and parmesan cheese on it. Yeah, that's it? So that's all you want? And I was like, yeah, I don't really need much

A healthy lifestyle can be intimidating to some people, weird..

Hey, Dewuan. I certainly did enjoy the story, because I've been there, you know, I've been on a fitness journey for the last almost ten years, even though I started running about six years ago. But I was doing push ups before then. I was going to the gym. So I've encountered those types of people. They just I've even had some people tell me, oh, you know, you're eating yeah. Rabbit food

And that's a testament to your consistency. I would never pull you to the side of my man. Ray, man, why are you wearing them shoes when you run? I would wear these shoes when I run. I don't know. There are certain people like that, though. So yeah. I did not understand. Why did she put all that extra s*** on my sandwich? It's not like I'm breaking your bank

I've found that you could be in your fifty s and your sixty s and still pursue a journey or a fitness journey. The body is very resilient. The body will adapt, you know, and that's what I try to whenever I'm out there posting on my Instagram stories, I'm also trying to inspire others, hey, get out there, get some fresh air, get some sunshine, and in the process, get healthier, lose some weight

Like in my case at least, I was very athletic, I was just overweight and there was a wave of metabolism that kicked in probably a couple of years later than for most people. But I've seen this with other members in my friends and family who are overweight. They're always given advice on how they should eat better, work out better, be better to the point that those very activities turn them off and maybe that's what's happening

I honestly know because I haven't been on a scale in like a year or something like that, but it was pretty high last year. It was staggeringly high. So no, by no means am I trying to lecture her on what she should eat and what she should do, nothing like that. But those are great examples you brought up to which that can cause insecurity

Thank you for sharing your story on projection, I guess, and teasing and a little bit of bullying and insecurities and all those other things. I just wanted to say this, which I don't know if anyone said I didn't listen to the complete replies of everyone. Why would you put any of that s***, excuse my language, I'm sorry, on a meatball sandwich. I don't even eat meatball sandwiches

Like, what else am I supposed to say? I want chips and cookies and a large drink. You know, obviously you're doing this out of the kindness of your heart, so I'm just, yeah, this is what I want. And, yeah, she had put tomatoes on there, mayo and lettuce. It was a lot of s*** on there that I would never put on a meatball family

A big kind of Gary Vee fan and Andy Priscilla follower and just kind of a subscriber to the whole idea that life does not need to be based on what other people think and it doesn't really matter anyway because they're not really thinking much, but we get hung up on it for sure. So I think it's great that you're declaring a breakout from that and doing your own thing and really driving towards your own goals. So congratulations. Just want to edify that

And I'll tell you that what I had to change first was my mindset, how I talked to myself, how I viewed food, how I let other people impact my decisions that I was making with my food, with how I talked to myself. Like, you're just describing, but you seem pretty aware of that. Secondly, I changed my diet and stopped eating junk food, started eating healthier food, started eating less processed food. And then the last thing I did was actually exercise

And then I got to a point where I started getting more into aspects of spirituality and psychology, getting into shadow work and things of that nature. And before you know it, the mindset was really starting to turn for the better. I was starting to realize not only problems I was having and difficulties I was having financially, but also difficulties I was having in terms of problem solving and solutions

I feel like my life is starting to become something that I'm starting to feel like I got the pieces and putting the putting the pieces together, it's like I'm starting to find the puzzle pieces that fit, and I just got to continue to stay consistent more than anything else. But thanks for participating on this. Wellcast

Trying to get the diabetes to go away and all that kind of stuff. And here, have a candy bar. Why do people do this to us? Why? The only thing I can come up with is Misery Loaf's Company, and they love to dictate what you do to make you miserable, and it's just crazy. And I would just prefer to have my gerbil food when I have it, and every now and then I allow myself a little treat. But it's all about moderation

With one who is working to be a healthier self, they must understand that not everyone will support them. But when the progress begins, some will begin to support you, but you will find some actually will not like you. I dated this lady and she had went through a surgery to lose weight. It was kind of like a tummy stomach thing. I forget what it was called that she did not tummy tuck. I don't know which one it was called
