She's one who always wants to have a cheat meal, or says that healthy can taste good (and posts a pictures of some oriental dish she made that has tons of sauce and white rice and such). She says that she refuses to give up food or say "I can't have that." You know what? She hasn't lost a single pound. Gee, I wonder why?
She's hosting another "carb party" in a few weeks. Anything with cheese or potatoes is definitely welcome. Part of me wants to just scream at her whenever she complains that she hasn't lost weight due to her body just hating her. Losing weight is more than working out! It's more than simply counting calories (and then having tons of cheat meals). I don't say "I can't eat that." I say "I won't eat that." I have a plan. I eat according to my goals. I'm not going to accomplish anything by cheating every other day.
Don't get me wrong. I love this friend to death. She just frustrates me when it comes to this. She said I should "save up my cheat meals" and come to her next party. Yeah, not happening.

I have a couple of friends like that. I don't understand them at all. One of them is just too lazy with no self control. The other one is just dumb as ****. At least the lazy one admits he's lazy. The dumb one constantly does the wrong thing, argues with me about how awesome it is & how I don't know shit, and then gets pissed when he remains disgusting and I keep improving.
I find that it helps to keep making new friends who have similar interests and goals. I'm not saying that you need to dump all of your old friends. I'm suggesting that you add new friends. If you are constantly are surrounded by people who set the bar low, you'll most likely lower yours.
