This is going to be a soft and sore topic. I am tipping about. To begin I am NOT coming for anyone nor am I throwing shade or being specific to anyone in particular just sharing my experience and how I feel.
I recently invited a friend or so I thought to join me in a new program I am doing in fitness. It is a hormone balance and fitness program with supplements and a nutrition plan that to me requires more food but since I am seeing a few inches disappear maybe I’ve been neglecting myself and was unaware. I always say if you believe then follow the plan, change does not happen in a few days. Nonetheless returning to the friend I invited and was shock with the response.
” I need to see how Lydia (not the real name), feels about this? and if she will be on board” Huh oh was my only response. REALLY DAMMIT!!! Are we as gracefully loving aging females still co-existing with each other? where is the grown up ? Making a decision you feel will benefit you should be about you. Yes, we do have to discuss things with spouses, significant others but to wait for a friends approval I say NO and a BIG LONG HARD NO.
I think it is awesome to surround ourselves with those supporting our fitness journey or even if it’s personal growth but to have approval NO. I guess I miss cues as I recall on several invites the friend would decline if her bestie wasn’t invited or felt different but expected the friend to be always present in whatever her decision was. Appalled yes. I wonder now on discussions of things she wanted to do to enhance her lifestyle the reasons she didn’t follow through was because waiting for someone else to approve. Not wanting to start a argument or heated disagreement I just replied “Okay”
We all have friends and we may not be on the same page 100 percent, but that support should be there. We don’t have to align our lives with our friends, bestie, BFF but love and support. We are unique and different in our own way. Yep, I’m still in my Hormone balance program and if you’d asked me a month or two about Pilates of course there is more to this, but I would have answered “it’s okay”. But today with this program and the trainer I love Pilates. Oh and it’s not the floor Pilates well only for the warm up.
