Morning everyone.

Hope you feel better today Ellie. I'm glad you've drawn a line and will continue to the end of Foundation - 4 weeks isn't long really - I know you can do it!

SIIM, glad to see you back on track. I didn't really say this last night because I was being a right ditz with my car etc but if you feel cr@p again, please give me a shout. Sometimes that rebellious child does get the better of you and you have lapsed before you can shout for help (done it many times - the amount of times I lapsed last time when I'd just started RTM and texted my LLC after was unreal) but if you need a rant or just some company and a coffee, please let me know. I know it's hard sometimes with the kids and your Mum, but if I can help I will xxx

And everyone else who has posted, I love the way we all support each other through the ups and downs - aren't we fab

 

[thin_inside]

Thank you DD Foxtrot and T_I for your support. Apart from a bout of the runs (self -inflicted after my lapses!) I am back on the packs and in the zone today. I wonder if part of it is because the end for me isn't in April, I'll have several months in Developers and there'll be no little floaty dresses for me this summer.

BUT I know that LL works and I'll look fabulous for Christmas!

Hi SIIM - I reckon I will be in developers until about Sept/Oct, then RTM so I am looking at Christmas to be fabulous too. My floaty summer dress thought has no date on it, it is just something I have always wanted to wear - but never have due to the wobbly rolls and tree-trunk legs I have cultivated.

I try to focus on the image of me feeling fantastic and enjoying the freedom of a thin summer dress as a way of making a positive choice over a short term food craving that I know will make me feel absolutely horrible afterwards. I am doing LL because I WANT to. My choice.

How bad / guilty etc did you feel when lapsing (or after). Could you use those remembered feelings to stop it happening again? Glad to hear you're back on the packs and in the zone today. Sending you some good vibes... :vibes:

 

[PurpleButterfly]

Hey all! Thank you so much for the support. It really is second to none on here. I have repped everyone that I can..

I am in a MUCH better place today. I can't describe but I feel something has changed within me deep down, almost like I needed to hit rock bottom and let go of that old me that needed to be size 16.

Today I looked at myself in the mirror and liked and accepted what I saw, as being Me. Not me in a skinny distorted version. Me, as I am now. I took a few photos of just head shots (I recently did full body shots), because I thought "My god, I think I look quite pretty!", which although sounds incredibly narcissistic and all that, it was a revelation because I have never seen that in myself before!

Back on the packs today, and I fully intend now to see it through to the end of foundation, and I feel comfortable now with losing more weight. I really feel I've reached a turning point!

 

[westiegirl]

Glad things are on the up hun, and pssstt - you are pretty

 

[Sean(JSF)]

Huge support for all of you. Sounds like a couple of the gang have had a tough time recently, but great to see that you've got your heads straight and ready to push ahead.

The whole f##d relationship thing really is wierd, and I can understand where you're coming from. Never expected to have such challenges over something as [not] eating.

Keep going, keep focussed and we will all emerge as better, fitter people.

 

[Foxtrot]

Emveg, where are you???????????????????

Anyone heard from her? She's not answering and I'm a little worried.

Well done Sean. I've made a conscious effort to cut out salt too this week, a little sprinkled on a soup can soon add up I thought.
