Reactions from family and friends decision to fight the excessive obesity or get in shape is often a very private and personal one. You’re getting ready to head out the door to the gym on a Sunday morning, and your spouse convinces you going out to brunch would’ve been this kind of a nice thing to do. I would like to ask you something. When your friends ask you to join them for Happy Hour, your plan is to hit the gym right after work?

Have you ever experienced any of these scenarios?

While telling you that you’ve done so well on your diet, you deserve a treat, out to dinner with a friend, she urges you to share the Brownie Delight for dessert.

You go to Mom’s for dinner, and she’s cooked your personal favorite and very fattening dishes. Also, she gonna be so insulted if you don’t indulge, and pick seconds.
