Hungry For Life
I got my four stone sticker on Monday night , so that was fun and positive... Until one of the girls at my group took the edge off .
Basically, she has been going to SW for YEARS and is still chubby. She said that another girl and I were "lucky" that we could lose weight quickly but that she and her mate (who keeps juggling the same few pounds) would "keep their weight off longer" because they were losing it "slowly" (personally I don't think they are losing it at ALL, so how can they "keep it off"?!). My Consultant didn't step in and correct her and I am so down at the moment that I didn't feel up to defending myself.
How did I manage to find a "support group" where my success can be turned into a negative example for everyone? Ugh. And I'm LUCKY to be able to lose weight am I?!!! And there was me thinking I'd STUCK TO THE PLAN. The girl in question likes to recount all her delicious meals out to the group BTW. Grrrr.
I'm SO depressed at the moment. My OH is suffering a nervous breakdown (he lost his Mum a year ago and has got progressively more mentally ill) -It is heartbreaking to watch but also very draining. I go to SW for FUN, I didn't need to go to group and have someone belittle my success, five minutes after me getting my sticker.
OK, I'll stop whining now and try to get back to posting "funny" stuff.
