Hello
Sorry to just jump in....
SpanglyMum......Well done on your first week..........Congrats....I have read your earlier posts and they have really resonated.....I read strength and focus and wanting to do a good job and determination and a lust for life in your posts.........
My own cockamamie theory is that I think that we might be happy slimmer because we are congruent.....our outsides reflect more closely who we really are......its why I have a mid life crisis every five years to try and reign myself back in (not doing so well hence the diet)......I refuse to be invisible and fade into the background as another fat, middle aged woman....I watched the new movie about Alfred Hitchcock the other day and was thinking why his characterisation was so good and then it hit me.......he was the right shape.....little legs, boulder of a body and his head too far forward on sloping shoulders....and I hate to say it....that's me.....so when people see me they don't see the rock concerts I've been to or the clubs (not any more I haven't got the knees for it) or the romances they see a dumpy little woman pulling a cardie across a far too ample bosom and believe that that is who I have always been.....
Sorry for going on on your diary.......your story has been an inspiration and thanks for recording it.....
Now I'm off to wee on a stick.......
Cheers
