Some of you know I've been literally working my ass off on losing weight and putting on muscle. Short story; I was tired of being so out of shape and I was fearful of where I was headed. So I changed my diet and hit the gym.
One thing I hate about this journey is getting into a conversation about how I lost weight because I find that:
So I avoid the conversation when people ask me how I lost so much weight. Recently my go-to response has been to tell them that I switched to sugar-free cigars and I'm shocked at how many people actually believe it. If I even think the person is sort of believing it, I start pushing pretty hard on some made-up story.
Am I an asshole? Yup.
Do I care? Nope.
Here's a before (June 2019) and after (June 2020) photo. I still have a ways to go but the journey has been fun and I'm loving the newfound energy!
One thing I hate about this journey is getting into a conversation about how I lost weight because I find that:
- People are looking for the latest shortcut/fad
- People begin telling me about how they lost weight or why they can't and I don't care about either
- People start telling me what I should do differently even though what I am doing is absolutely working for me
