10 stone, 1lb and -60" later, am now on refeed :-)

Monsoon

Loving LT!!!
I am finally there and so so chuffed with myself! I have now lost 10 stones and 1 pound (my target was 10 stone) I have calculated my inch loss too, it is as follows:
Upper arms - 5.5"
Thighs - 10"
Bust - 10":mad:
Belly - 17"
Hips - 17.5"
I lost 2lbs this week which I was so relieved about, having been told i could pick at veges last week to prepare myself for refeed, i had a corn on the cob several times, then found out it was not on the list of permitted veges for that time, arghh, but to my relief, it didn't seem to affect me.
I am 5'9" and started out as a size 26/28, I am now a 14/16, I have not been this size since I was 15!!! (am 34 next wednesday)
I feel that this diet has given me back my life, extreme i know but i can now walk without feeling I'm gonna collapse, I don't get stared/pointed at, I feel I no longer embarrass my children, there are certain jobs i would avoid applying for just so i didn't have the humiliation of my size being turned down as i wouldn't fit in the uniform, there were certain places i wouldn't go as I knew i wouldn't fit in the chairs, or possibly break them, I couldn't take my children to the fair incase i had to go on a ride that didin't fit. I literally could go on for hours!
You lot really have been here for me, I have felt like giving up so so many times, but the support i have had from this one site has given me so much umph and confidence, more than any of my offline friends have, thankyou :grouphugg:
I am now sitting here, crying my eyes out (what a sap!) as this is all i have wanted for years and i have done it, I am alive and will be for a while, I no longer weigh 23 stone, I am 12st 13, yes, i have about a stone of loose skin but spread over 5'9" of me, it really doesn't show!
So all those not sures out there, DO IT, it's so worth it, don't let anyone put you down about this diet, I had many, I did not cheat once, not even a crumb and proud of it.
For the first time ever I am begining to like myself!!!
Thankyou for taking the time to read this and i hope it encourages others like you have encouraged me.
I am now off to drink the most vile soup I have ever tasted, yup cream of veg refeed is worse that trf chicken!
