Wow Alia
That is a great loss
And yes, your hermit ways will start to deminish, as the weight drops off
I am very chuffed that you got through your BBQ today too
Well done
Cleaning up will burn up a few calories![]()
The manfriend(my OH) says, you have to find the joy in every job, so, thats what I would say the joy is in that job![]()
I now have an urge to tidy my kitchen too![]()
That is one of the ways my weight and declining health has made me so down and depressed. I am a cleanaholic, I make no excuses, I used to get up at 3 or 4 am in the summer to hang my washing out and make sure everything was spotless. As I got bigger my ability to continue that has become less which has attributed to my depression. Dont get me wrong, as a woman of 31 + stones I am still able to do stuff, just not as much as I would like. Hec I even find getting up from the couch an ordeal these days. I see things in the house I find unacceptable and cant wait to get it spick and span again. My husband and mum say I am paranoid cause its already uber clean but I pick faults..... I actually enjoy cleaning, I love to keep busy with it, those days are just lut of reach but with each pound off I get a pound closer to being able to do the things I want to do.
BTW i did not clean up, hubby told me to sit down and him and my 17 year old daughter are doing it![]()
Maybe obsessing about the cleaning was the thing you could control ?
I dont know Alia, but maybe as you lose weight, and more options in life become open to you, your cleaning compultion will ease ?
There is sooo much scope out there for you
Oh, and you are no longer a 31+ stone woman![]()
Or indeed, a 30+ stone woman![]()
I quite like the chocolate made hot sometimes, I do it with the stick blender and add a bit more water than for a shake so it's not so thick and gloopy.
Hi Alia, Loving your story!! I've just started, am on Day 2 and I would love to be as successful as you at it!!! Keep up the good work!
