You are still doing great darcy!

Do you feel like its got any easier now you have got so long under your belt!

Most of the time it's routine and I don't think about it


......but I still struggle with the emotional aspect of eating - and a stressful day will still trigger the desire to turn to food for comfort :sigh:

I'm working on that, but it is quite hard sometimes :eek:
 
You're doing amazing!
 
You're doing amazing!

Thank you Lynne :)

Someone at work noticed today for the first time that I was slimmer :D

She said I was 'melting away' :eek:

......when I said I couldn't see any difference myself, she showed me a photo on her phone taken of me just before Xmas - and I have to say I was amazed at the difference :eek:


I think I can get too focused on the vast amount of weight I need to lose, and forget to be pleased with what has already gone! :)
 
How lovely to have it noticed, that's a great feeling :)xx
 
Oh that's lovely Darcy :)
It's great that she could show you evidence of you shrinking :D
 
Excellent that someone noticed darcy.
It does make you feel better when someone comments as it makes it all a bit more worthwhile if others can actually see a change in you!!

My trigger seems to be tiredness rather than stress.
I have been tired a few times and had food thoughts.
Luckily now i can see that. I dont know how i will handle it once i start eating again, but i am certainly going to be much more conscious of it now, so at least i have learned something :)

Tiredness can be an issue for me too

...but feeling upset over something is still my biggest issue to overcome. It feels like a need to console myself in some way, and food is my instinct. I have at least recognised this, and haven't succumbed - but some days that has been SO tough :rolleyes:
 
Wooohooo Mrs! Glad someone has noticed. Especially when she went to the trouble of looking for a photo to prove it to you. Bless her!

Have a nice day :) x

Yes, she's a great workmate! :)

I didn't know she'd taken the photo - it was Xmas Eve at work, when we all turned up in Christmas jumpers for a laugh

......I knew I was big obviously, but I must admit that photo was quite a shock at just how enormous I am :(


Still, 35lbs down is not too shabby at the moment :D
 
35lb down is amazing Darcy!

Thank you so much Lynne :)

I don't know about slim, but at least I won't risk sinking the ship with a bit less of me onboard!
 
Aw that is such a lovely way to start the weekend Darcy. I think it is hard for us to see the difference when we look in the mirror but looking at a photo is a whole different kettle of fish. Get your friend to take another photo now & then have a look at it before you go on the cruise, it will certainly boost your confidence..

You need to start complimenting yourself now because you have come such a long way & still going strong. xxx
