Moooooo
Hi everyone, it's been a while since I was on the forum properly so wanted to say hi and see how you're all doing. Hope the scales are going down as they should.
Also, can anyone give me advice about how to sort my head out please. Last year I lost loads which is great, I'm really pleased with how it's been going and with myself to be honest BUT I'm struggling so much at the moment....
I don't know if I can explain without sounding really stupid but I will try! When I look in the mirror I can see the change, I can feel it everyday and it's wonderful however I'm really struggling with how I look naked. Before, even though I was ridiculously fat my skin was full - now though, despite the fat still there, it makes me feel ill to look at because it's so wobbly and sort of folds in on itself. What's so silly is that I have never been bothered by how I looked in the past, I could quite happily strip off to go swimming or in bed but now I feel awful. The problem is that I know it's affecting my eating despite my best intentions. I'm allowing myself to slip because I'm dreading how much worse I will look when I lose more. Does that make any sense or am I sounding stupid?
Do any of you have any tips for me please? I know my skin is really beyond help and there's not much I can do to firm it up after stretching it so much but I need to sort my head out. The only thing keeping me going is the thought that I can hopefully sort the skin with an op once I'm at target which is great but it's so far away that it's really getting me down.
Sorry for such a selfish post, any advice would be wonderful thank you.
