i told my family at month four rather than week one, and the timing is what made it go well
we are a chat channel. good company, not clinicians, and it matters that we keep saying so
ok so the plateau nearly ended it for me. what got me through was logging something other than my weight
i asked one relative to stop commenting. it was awkward for a week and it was worth it
update on the earlier thing how do you tell family youre on this without getting a lecture back
same at week 5
the quiet is strange isnt it

the fraud feeling faded for me somewhere around the point i had kept it off longer than i took to lose it
