Getting her sparkle back
Hello!
Everyone has seemed a bit down lately so I thought i'd try and lighten the mood! Was thinking today of all the things that seem normal to us on Lighter Life, but to others must seem quite odd!
Here is my list:
Things that people not on Lighter Life just can’t understand…
• Ordering water in a restaurant, then having a mild panic trying to get the slice of lemon/lime out of the glass, trying to explain about ketosis.
• The whole concept of ketosis in general!
• Getting excited when the ketostix is pink.
• That being completely on abstinence means eating four packs a day, and no I cant have ‘just one glass of wine’/’just a little biscuit’
• How exciting it is to go into shops and just try stuff on, getting excited that a smaller size fits, but not buying anything as you know you might be in an even smaller size in a few weeks!
• That long car/train journeys need to be carefully planned to include toilet breaks.
• That the ‘new clothes’ you start wearing out and they comment on are actually old clothes that you never thought you’d be able to wear again!
• No I’m not ‘starving’ and no I won’t go to Macdonald’s/Pizza Express/KFC etc. the moment I get to 100 days.
• That meeting up with friends and just drinking water or coffee is fine, but hearing ‘are you sure you don’t mind me eating?’ and ‘oh I feel sooooo bad eating in front of you’ over and over again is very annoying.
Feel free to add your own! xxxx
