Hey Chloe
How are you? Sorry I haven't been around for a while, I fell slightly off a wagon - no injuries, just a slight touch of "eatentoomuchitis" !! You seem a little down in the dumps hun. Try not to let this weight loss journey consume you too much. It isn't the be all and end all, you have to be happy with life and enjoy yourself, food should only fit around your life, your life should fit around the food - it took me a long time to realise that - I used to sit in class and cry sometimes, I read what Jo85 said (Hi Jo85 am off to snoop your FD in a while!) and I used to be the exactly the same - be 100%, even weighing out tommie ketchup in a tbsp and then spending ages scraping it all out with a teaspoon on the plate and for my efforts only losing a 1lb a week, whilst watching other ladies swan in saying how many takeaways they had had and losing 3lb and getting the bell rung for them! It used to be so infuriating. I had a real struggle with the whole class and weighing in front of people thing - so now I go it alone with the help of this fantastic site. Life isn't very long Chloe and although food makes me very happy, I am now suffering from the consequences, but I am trying, everyday I try to be perfect, sometimes I am and sometimes I am not, but the weight is going down oh so slowly and I am relieved at that and that alone. Dont let dieting rule your life, make it fit round your life - sometimes it will and sometimes it won't. A few months ago I found myself talking to Mick about good foods and bad foods and diets and he was glazed over - that's when I realised I had become a 'diet bore'!
