You know you have that friend........

on FB who is a health and fitness person. They post constantly about healthy eating or xconditioning or the great work out they had. But the second someone (obviously not me) says something like "great for you but getting tired of these posts, don't you do ANYTHING else with your life????" they get super offended and post things like the picture below.

Don't get me wrong I am so glad that you are making yourself better and are making the change towards health and happiness. But check yourself once and a while. Sometimes it comes out as a bit naggy and occasionally preachy and no one really enjoys reading that day after day. Right?

In this house we are gluten free - not because it is a trendy choice but because my husband and son react badly to it and get really sick. Do I hassle everyone about it? Nope - I started a private FB group for people like me who want to exchange ideas etc. That way I am not bugging people.......

I also run 6-7km 3 days a week - do I rub that in people's faces? Nope - I do it because it makes me feel sane and relaxed. I also sit on the couch and eat chocolate chips and watch TV (on the off days) and that makes me happy too. See - happy balance.

Take a step back and evaluate if you are one of those people. If you are, lighten up....... please.......
 
This picture says to me "I am defensive about my life choices" Touchy Touchy people.

  1. The internet is good because it lets you see lots of things about the people you know. For the same reason, it's bad
