Lost & Found... Map Gone AWOL!

[Katycakes]

By the time you hit target they'll go wherever you want them to... promise!

If you had asked me even a week ago if I would dare to buy the knicks or that the swimmy would fit, I wouldn't have believed it. Or that I deserved it. Only made time for the shopping trip because yesterday was so horrid, but I'm so, so glad I did. Random comments from total strangers today - in the dress shop, in M&S fitting room... I look like a slim person now. I want to do more than LOOK like her, I want to BE her now.

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!! Congratulations

Do you now consider yourself to be at goal??!!

xxxx

 

[Katycakes]

Yes... sort of. It was so, so important I got here before going away on tues... not to be 'slim for going away' as that was never my goal, just a nice side effect, but because I knew once away I would have to let go of the CD security blanket (no products can be imported etc). So I moved up steps faster than I would have & didn't think I would hit a flat 11... but I have!

Overall, I do want to push downwards to 10 7 or 10 10 even. Just to get a little margin for error, the plan would be to stay 'below' 11 stone at all times. But that second goal I won't even think about until I get home in June, & when I assess how the weeks away went I will make a plan for getting to new goal. I feel so, so much better now, lighter in so many ways, hadn't realized how much the weight was squashing my confidence.

Oh Katy. 11stone. Fantastic :bliss:

Can you pack me in your suitcase. Need a trip abroad. Somewhere warm (not hot).

Will be prepared to sit quietly whilst you work. I'm helpful like that

 

[Katycakes]

My suitcase awaits... small but now lined with some v. cool vintage dresses I haven't fit into in years. (BTW they were vintage when I bought them in the first place, I am not THAT old!!!) I may not be able to import CD products to Aus, NZ & Singapore, but maybe I can bring in a CDC!!!! You can be my personal CD guru for the trip.

Hmmm. On second thoughts, maybe you should tell me the almond secret first?

(Katycakes: never gives up!!!)

[Katycakes]

OK, Jess... just arranging to borrow a bigger suitcase. No problem!!!

Can't help but post... the magic scales said 10st 13.5 lbs this morning. That's a sliver below goal. THAT is where I have wanted to be for so, so long... just to see that 10... for me, it is goal, even though it's not an official CDC WI. I have adjusted ticker and will leave it there while I am away, and so, so happy this morning... yesterday's flat 11 was good, but todays is the one that has me fizzing with happiness. It feels like crossing over into a new slim zone, one I want to stay in.

Anyway... phew.
