MinkyDinkys SW Success Diary!!

Hi Minx

How are you feeling hun?

Sun's out today so I hope you are enjoying it xxxx
 
Hope u had a good ole stomp and a grrrr and are feeling better now :) xxx
 
Morning minx hope u have a good day xx
 
Hi lovely, I've been away since Friday and you're still not back! Hope everything is ok xx
 
Morning guys. I'm still here. Just needed a few days to sort my head out. Have been off plan and real bad. Was going through my head as to if I could actually lose any more weight due to my excess skin situation and to be honest, it depressed me. I sat and sulked and maybe even thought about having a cry. Didn't get that far but jeez I wanted to.

So cut a long story short, ate, drank and ate a little more.

WI was a well deserved 3 lbs on. I have next Tuesday booked off as holiday because I have a wedding this weekend and I don't need another gain under my belt to depress me further. I'm hoping that if I have 2 weeks till next WI I can get a loss under my belt by then.

Sorry it's not the usual chirpy and positive sounding post but I'm just feeling a bit...meh.
Hope everyone is doing well and I'll come catch up now xx

Breakfast - egg and mushroom on hexb toast. 1 syn low low pepper cheese spread.

Lunch - I'm heading out to town in a bit so lunch will probably be a small sushi pack from M&S for 1 syn. If I'm hungry when I get back then a cheese and onion toastie using HexA and hexb

Dinner - BNS orzotto with HexA mozzarella
 
Hey Minky. I don't know if you've spoken to your GP about your concerns of the excess skin, but if you haven't I certainly think it would be worth a try. (I'm sorry if I missed a post from you about this somewhere) This sort of surgery IS available on the NHS in certain circumstances.
 
Aw darling, I totally understand how you feel, I am in the same situation about the skin but look how far you have come and even if you don't lose anything further YOU LOOK FANTASTIC.

Lift that chin up and be proud of yourself, we are all very proud of you xxx

Everyone is allowed a wobble, you wouldn't be normal otherwise!!!! Glad to see you're back!
3 pounds is not much at all!
 
Minky, never apologize to others for not being chirpy, especially in your own diary. You are allowed to feel miserable, you are allowed to dive head first into cake, and you are allowed to talk about it to :) don't be putting extra pressure on yourself to be perfect, or what you think others want you to be.

If the skin is an issue then do see your doctor and be honest with him/her about it. I always got taught "you don't ask, you don't get!" If it is a route you are prepared to go down then explore it. And remember you can target whenever you want to so if you want to target for a while then do, you can start working your way back down the scales again when/if you want to and are ready.
 
Minkx sorry you are feeling down about loose skin (know the feeling) but think about how far you have come. It is not easy to lose all that weight. You have done amazingly well, we all admire you and you are our inspiration.

Go to your doctor and explain. Hopefully he/she can refer you to a specialist or provide you with different options.

Also you are not obliged to lose every week. Take your time and do what is best for you.

Have a lovely evening and enjoy the wedding if I do not speak to you before then. BIGGGG HUGGGG xx
 
Big hugs minky, hasn't been the same here without you. Sorry you've been feeling low, we are all here for you xx
