They usually still didn't believe me.

I've lost 47 pounds now, and I always get asked that question. It's the Eat More Fiber and Move Your Ass diet, because it seems to me that people need to think there's some kind of trick to it, or an easy way to do it. Nope, no easy way. More whole grains, more fruits and vegetables, and more exercise.
My dad, uncle, and cousins always get asked the "did you play basketball" question, and my brother gets asked if he played football. I guess I just don't look athletic enough for those kinds of questions.
