Never gets tired of SW!
Hi all, I wanted to share something with you that somebody said to me yesterday that really irritated me!! I went out with a group of ladies for a meal before seeing a show. It was an italian restaurant and I was happily tucking into linguine pasta with a (very)light tomato sauce, cherry tomatoes and king prawns! A very sensible (and for me yummy) option I thought for an Extra Easy day!! I got talking to the lady (slim and in her 60s)next to me about food and I mentioned I was on Slimming World and had basically lost a stone! I said I wanted to lose another 4 stone but that I was enjoying SW because I could eat lots of the right things (explaining about food optimising etc) and she half laughingly said that I would never do that if I carried on eating like I was (referring to the pasta dish!!) She said that I'd have to exercise like mad to get that much weight off!! I know it sounds ridiculous but I felt really irritated and deflated by the comment! Although I've already proved that it's working for me (but admittedly have a long way to go yet) I still felt hurt by it and started feeling frustrated and negative!! I was annoyed with myself for letting other peoples' comments affect me! Perhaps I should be more thick skinned! Does anyone else take things like that to heart?!X
