Heck,
I'm tempted to see this doctor. Who wouldn't be? Losing weight so fast... However, I think the highlighted tells the end of that story for both you & me.
I know that pills & shakes are not the solution for my weight loss. And all the best to your friend. I hope that she's able to transition to regular meals down the road when she needs to.
If she's seeing a doctor, let it be. Support her when she brings it up. If you're truly curious, you could always ask her if she's at all worried about returning to eating solid foods for meals.
It's so hard not to compare ourselves to others. We do it all the time for many things. But, weightloss is so individual. It's so personal. Comparing ourselves to our friends isn't telling the whole story.
For example, let's say I have a friend who is losing weight rather rapidly, but she's only eating 1,200 calories worth of french fries a day. Sure, I'm jealous of how much she's losing, but do I really want to eat only 1,200 cals of french fries a day? I think I'd lose my mind before I lost all the weight.
If what you're doing is working for you, enjoy it. Enjoy
your progress. Take to heart the lessons you're learning on your own and from WW. Even if you did lose all the weight using only pills & shakes, you'd still need to master the lessons of weight loss in order to keep the weight off permanently. And the more practice, the better.
