You are doing really well, and as for your brother, why doesnt he help and encourage you instead of being well nasty, if my brother or sister said that to me i would be devastated.. lets hope his attitude changes, i have loads to lose and used to say i couldnt do it but this time and i dont know why, but i have truly decided it has to go, i want it gone as quick as possible but i realise it will take time(hopefully losing it will give me more time anyway) its a win win situation, the last 3 weeks have been awful for me gained 5 pound one week see im only human and give in to my demons.... but have lost it plus 2 since so back on track for now.. the problem is we have to live life and food is a big part of it. we can do it but it isnt easy i hope your brother realises that. well done on your weightloss every pound off counts one less to lose, good luck x
