You are achieving your goals, you are in the best shape of your life. You have worked your butt off. You are feeling good and your confidence is through the roof. Then it happens. Some person eating a triple cheese burger with a belly that laps over their belt comes along and says you not healthy. You are anorexic. You are hurting yourself.
They are the haters. They are the ones that think they know all the answers but the only goal they have is to visit every destination that "Man Vs. Food" has taped and win the records. You bust your butt for your health. They say "you don't live forever." They are everywhere. They think they know better. Yet they have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and/or type 2 diabetes.
Do not take what these people have to say to heart. They are generally jealous. They have been unable to achieve much in their lives. They don't have any goals and usually stay where they are or sink lower. Rise above these people. Turn the tides on them. INVITE THEM to work out WITH YOU! Tell them you would be more than happy to help them get healthy too. 9 times out of 10 they will refuse. But you extended the olive branch. They were the ones that batted it away. Then when they continue to put you down you have the upper hand. Just continue to smile and extend the olive branch. Who knows. They may actually take you up on it!

What's the point?
There are some out there that say, "What's the point? I don't want to look like a Barbie Doll." Or they say that they don't need to look good.
Here is a news flash! You don't need to look like Barbie or G.I. Joe. The point of fitness is to keep your health in check. To keep your heart healthy and your brain stroke free. To control your insulin levels. To have a better quality of life. For most, they don't care what they look like. How they look is just a side effect of how they live their life.
Do you have kids or grand kids? How would you like to be able to keep up with them and enjoy them? How about living life with them instead of watching from the side lines. This is what health and fitness is about. It isn't about getting ripped so you can look good to people you are attracted to. It is about living your life.
Until next time, EAT CLEAN and WORKOUT DIRTY!
