I've found that the most supportive people are my "thin" friends. It's as if "fat" friends want you to remain their Dominoes Pizza buddy for life and never get any healthier; they will be negative about any weight loss plan even if it's as standard as healthy-eating and exercise. I've had so many people tell me that SW is a fad diet and impossible to live by (I strongly disagree) and telling me that exercise at home on the Wii is futile. Surely it's better than sitting on the couch, eating cake!
