My frustrating friend

by The Shopping Maniac

A few days ago I told you about my friend who’s been trying to lose weight since January. She’s actually done quite well by losing about 20 lb but she’s reached a plateau.

I’ve been trying my hardest to encourage her to just stick to her diet and work out but she’s determined to lose the weight faster and now she’s looking into diets for quick weight loss like even liquid diets.

I guess I just need to step back a bit and let her do whatever she’s going to do. I’ve given her advice (advice that she asked for) several times and she’s not taking it … so what can I do?

Do you ever have people that keep asking you for advice and then do almost the opposite. It’s frustrating isn’t it?

    I know exactly what you mean, I’ve a friend who’s trying to stop smoking and he just keeps saying how much he wants to stop without ever having a serious attempt! Drives me crazy!

    I totally know what you mean. I hit a plateau when I was losing weight and though I tried many things to lose weight faster, I learned that it was most healthy to just stick to what i was doing, healthy eating and exercise.
