Sorry to hear about the cyst. Ouch ouch. I've had a few on my ovaries and luckily they went of their own accord. Hope all goes well xxx

Aww thank you CrunchyFrog! (love your name!) You're doing brilliantly!

Haha when we went for a scan the Doctor said 'Your Sister can come in with you if you like' My Daughter went mad and said 'That's my Mother, my old Mother, not my Sister' She was affronted! One of my other Daughters has begged me to stop losing weight as apparently I'm being called a 'Milf' ! She said she can't handle the fact that people tell her that I look like her Sister! She's disgusted! I just tell them to suck it up.

Ouch indeed! Yeah I had one on an ovary and it disappeared by itself, strange things. This is so annoying more than anything, thank God for rubber rings!

I also have one of them cysts but my doctor called it an abscess and it's located at the bottom of my spine (right at the bottom), on my tailbone area, same place as you? I also got 7 days of antibiotics, and it's getting better.

Did your doctor mention the grizzly details of what will happen to it? lol

Awww Thank you Aaron, you're so kind! I never thought of comparing the two pictures! I think it has been 4 weeks from the last photo. I must go and compare the two. I suppose the smaller you get, the easier it is to see the loss. Thank you so much for pointing that out to me.

Oh my God, isn't it so annoying! Poor you, I once fractured my tailbone and it was agony. From I lost the weight my bum doesn't have as much padding, and it's starting to hurt if I sit for too long! Did the antibiotics work? They told me mine was a cyst/abscess. No! I wasn't told how they would get rid if the antibiotics didn't work! Do I want to know haha?!

I'm really sorry to hear about the cyst, that sounds awful!!! Argh!!! I hope the antibiotics work so you don't have to do anything too horrible!

Congrats on being a grandma-to-be!! :-)

Hannah

Stop it you! I'll be needing some of those tissues I gave you back!

Thank you so much Hannah! I'll never be as gorgeous as you, you stunner!

I don't really care what they do now! They can slice and dice me. Anything is better than a bloody great big golf ball between my legs! I'm so posh eh.

Haha Tasha. I've only just started to look in a mirror. I don't think I'm ready for the inspirational slideshow just yet. I don't see myself as an inspiration. The people who have lost it and kept it off are my inspirations. Maybe if I maintain I'll put myself on!

When I tell people how much I've lost, they ask to see a pic as apparently I never looked like a fat person, and I now don't look like a fat person who has lost so much weight! Crazy stuff, are they blind, I was the size of a mountain! I suppose no one has changed towards me. Although the attention I get from men is a bit hard to stick sometimes, especially when they're young enough to be my sons!

I'm quite a gregarious, bubbly person, a bit of a raker and I'm still the same, so I suppose that kind of hid the fat, if you know what I mean!

Yes looking at your photo again I can see what you mean. You are also v pretty (stunning now, ya look about 30!).

irish molly · 18th March, 2010

Betsy, have just seen your post. Woweee!!! you are just in a class of your own. Yourself and Clair have been having phenomenal results and have real grit and determination. Hats off lady!!!
Have the gym signed you up for their advertising, cos if they have not done so already they should do so pdq as you would have people queueing up for membership.
No question about winning the glam gran contest, you will have that sewn up.
The cyst sounds really nasty. I hope it goes by itself and that you don't have to have it lanced.
Well done again. You are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dunders · 19th March, 2010

OMG Betsy, you should win slimmer of the decade, never mind slimmer of the year, you've lost the weight of another adult!! Hats off to you, you are truly inspirational!

janey23 · 19th March, 2010

You look amazing Betty, and nowhere near old enough to be a grandma! Bet you'll get confused for the mum when your out pushing your new baby.

Thanks for sharing your story, i've got about another 7 stone to lose, so hearing (and seeing) that its possible and seeing the awesome results is a real encouragement.
