So, last night went out with a group of old friends - some of who I haven't seen for over a year and the rest who I haven't seen since I started the diet.
I didn't really want to tell them about the diet and have been really worrying for ages about what I was going to do about the meal. To cut a long story short - I decided to just get on with it and eat at the restaurant, as it was pointed out, one meal won't make any difference in the whole scheme of things and I've already put my life on hold enough over the last 6 months. Plus once I'd made the decision to eat - I felt so much better!
I also spent AGES fretting over what to wear as I quite literally now have practically nothing to wear (went with a short black dress in the end which although far too big, looked alright cinched in with a belt and with knee high boots)
Well after all the worrying I'm kinda feeling a bit deflated today. Not one single person made any comment on what I looked like!
Don't get me wrong, comments about my appearance make me feel pretty awkward and I'm still struggling to deal with them but bear in mind I'm over 6 stone lighter than when I last saw them - surely someone must have noticed?!
On the plus side- I bought a new skirt yesterday in a 12 and it fits! In fact - nearly all my clothes are either a 12 or 14 now. Which is kinda strange considering I've still got at least 46lb to go - I'll be a size 6 at this rate by the time I get to goal! Someone said to me the other day that I must be nearly 'finished' - think I must look lighter than I actually am!
