Friends decided to lose weight with me, need advice on boundaries.
So I my friends noticed that I lost 30 lbs since November-ish, and they decided they wanted to lose weight too. Okay cool.
One of my friends, she runs around telling everyone that “we’re on a diet” but I don’t consider what I do a “diet” I told her it’s a life style change and she just waved me off and said “same thing”.
Okay maybe I’m being too militant so I let it slide. So later we’re talking about food and her and another one of my friends say they’re going to cut out all carbs, sugars and no fruit. I was mentally face palming, but I did not say anything because of boundaries, I don’t think it’s my place. Now when they see me eating fruit or some whole grain bread they gasp like I’m committing a crime and one of them told me “maybe that’s why your not losing weight fast” I just kept silent. Then one thing that really got me is that they said they weren’t going to track at all. They don’t believe CICO works. * sigh* Okay I won’t say anything, again I feel like it’s not my place. I don’t know what my place is in this because they ask for my advice, but try to refute it.
So when is it my place? Should I stay out of it all together?
Update: Thank you everyone for replying I really appreciate all your advice. I actually had an argument with these friends today, and surprisingly it had nothing to do with this subject. I didn’t want to go on a trip with them because my father is sick, and they got mad and went off. But this is a blessing in disguise I believe, one of them has been controlling for a long time and I think it’s finally over. Again thank all of you do your replies and support. I love this sub so much.
