Going for Goal!
Hi All,This weekend has really hit home for me how much weight I have lost since April, and shockingly I have realised that I have not been this slim in 10 years I was large as a child, but don't think I really began to "take notice" until around 13 years old, where each year I went up a stone with my age. So I know when I was 14 I was 14 stone etc. Quite sad, but also...I can't change the past - but I am changing the here and now! So this weekend was a HUGE confidence boost for me. My in-laws came to visit (I get on with them very well - lovely people) The first thing my MIL said "oh blimey, you get slimmer everytime I see you, well done!" (slightly bigger head!) Now on sat evening I was a very good girl, my hb and his parents and brother went out for a meal, while I stayed at home watching x fatcor and waiting for taxi at 9.30pm to go into town to meet them for drinks (after the meal) I wore a lovely brown gypsy top in size 16, that I bought 2 years ago with a vow that one day it would fit me!!!! And it did, and I actually FELT very good about my figure and not at all worried, like I usually am about bulges, fat a*se etc (you know how it is!) So I joined the family sipping on water, and had a thoroughly enjoyable evening - it just goes to show you don't have to have alcohol to enjoy yourself when out! About 1pm we left the bar and were walking to a taxi rank and my Brother in-law (who has been in Africa for 3 months, and this is the 2nd time I have seen him since his return) said he was looking at mine and simons (hb) engagement party pics, and wedding pics and that I look like a completely different person! I said "is that a compliment?" he laughed and said "i guess so yeah, you look great" ! I was on cloud 9! lol The next day my hb said that during their meal they were saying how well I had done etc - I just feel fab now knowing that people are really, properly noticing my weightloss and not just being polite. It's great!!!! I LOVE CD! It's hard work, but sooooo worth the effort Hugs x x x
