People apologize for the wrong reasons! They apologize for how they're parenting, how messy their house is, and they apologize for their weight loss. They're acting SORRY that they're on a health journey, and it doesn't fit into the social norm. So they feel like they're putting others out, which is NOT TRUE! Chronic apologizing, even for things that you shouldn't be apologizing about, indicate a lack of confidence or insecurity. It is a bad habit that we all should eliminate from our lives. As we talked about in an earlier episode, you should be okay with being in uncomfortable situations without the need to apologize. The problem with being a chronic apologizer is that your credibility goes down. People never believe you, even when you are genuinely sorry. They are used to you apologizing for stuff that doesn't even matter. This need to apologize comes from the need to justify everything we do. Certainly, you shouldn't be apologizing for your weight loss journey. You won't believe it, but we see so many people apologizing for their weight loss. They apologize for making healthier choices and putting themselves first. Be confident in yourself, and do YOU!
