Hi all
Just to let you know we had a lovely fortnight in Cyprus and soaked up the sunshine and culture.
I wined and dined every night, lovely romantic evenings by the sea with my beloved and with a little trepidation I stepped on the scales and I have maintained.
My husband reckons I look slimmer, that's probably because we walked a lot, so my hips and thighs look slimmer. I'm a bit tempted to show a photo, I'm quite shy about that, and I'm not too sure how to put them on the site, the thing is I have no pics of when I was very heavy. I was very camera shy then.
The great thing is that I achieved what I set out to do, have a nice time, eat what I wanted to and maintain my weight. I'm happily sole sourcing again and when the Doc sees what my spell away has done I think he'll be rather pleased. He told me I would put weight on, that I'd restore glycogen and fat. I took that as a challenge and I'm delighted to have proved him wrong and I think he will be glad he was wrong too, because all he wants is success for me too.
I just want to share this with you. We stayed at a hotel where, in all honesty I have never seen so many obese people. The quantities of food that were eaten at breakfast by these guests was beyond belief. I just kept thinking, you really don't need all that and wondering how they could manage to tuck it all away. Full English with chips + a continental but 4 croissants mind, then fruit and yoghurt and cereal. One may say they were stoking up the fires for the day, but I'm inclined not to give them the benefit of the doubt, because there was a great queue outside "Fat Mamas" restaurant every night, again with very large folk waiting to gain entry. I was puzzled at the attraction of this place, it was on a busy main road. Then I glanced the size of the portions. Mount Everest on a plate.
Seeing all this food being eaten just made my resolve so strong, because as any Lipotrimmer will know, you can live quite happily and healthily on your 420 calories. The weight isn't dropping off me.
So, I hope to hear from you and let me know how you are all getting on.
Cheers with a glass of LT in my hand - carry on being amazing!
