"I thank God..."

I'm part of a keto group on Facebook. I love this group because I get lots of new ideas for recipes, and I also get to see other people's progress. Even when I'm not losing weight, seeing other people lose on this way of eating is like having my own cheerleaders. It can work if I just keep with it.

What irritates the fuck out of me are those weight loss posts that start or end with "I thank God for this weight loss..." What?! No. I worked my ass off to lose weight, and so did they. Some magical being didn't do it. It was my hard work, my perseverance, and my drive. If I wake up looking like a fitness model with the skin of a seven year old, then I'll thank God.
