Thank you
I can't tell you how much better I feel - which is ridiculus really when you consider I still weigh 19 stone! But there are so many things - silly little ones like the bath towels not gaping open when I wrap them round me, and being able to get down onto the floor to get something out from under the bed without needing a winch to get back up....and I've noticed that even in the heat we've had I'm not as sweaty when I'm walking outside. People are starting to notice I've lost some (I hadn't told anyone) and that feels pretty good. I've dropped one dress size and pretty soon I'll be dropping another one I think. I currently own only 6 pairs of knickers (chucked the rest, they were baggy!) but I won't buy any more until I lose some more weight
And the food? Just amazing. I have pretty much given up alcohol, which was a bit of a wrench to start with, but I'd rather use my syns on tasty grub. I eat so much better on SW, real food - just cooked better. I've had chips three times this week - I would have had chips at least that many times pre-SW but they would have been 20 syns a time, deep fried and greasy. Now I find that fried food isn't very appealing at all. If I only have my 5 fruit and veg a day, that's a poor SW day in my view!
So glad you've found the support of Minis - these people are amazing. Inspiring. Shoulders to cry on when you need them - hopefully *before* the synfull stuff.... Just keep posting and reading!
Oh Theria, it was so nice reading about those changes you have noticed, i can so imagine how important and noticeable those little changes are now you've lost that first bit of weight, especially the not needing a winch to get up LOL! It must feel great to know that you have already improved your quality of life by losing what you have so far..almost 4 stone which is fantastic. I am so looking forward to enjoying those kind of changes myself, when they start to happen you know the lovely feeling that gives you is so much better than eating something fattening I'm sure!! Can't wait to throw some of my big bloomers out the knicker drawer!
And yes I will keep posting/reading..i can honestly say that as I do SW from home Minis is a godsend for me, it makes such a difference to talk to people like you who KNOW how it feels. Have you got a diary so I can pop by and see/support you?? x
