Nefertari's journey to lose 130lbs

Hi, just had a browse of your diary, well done so far. I can relate to you reaching those milestones, it's nice to have little goals along the way and motivating too! Keep it up, and again well done!
 
Thanks xLunax! Xx
 
Wowsers, I'm tired lately! I think it's the long slog to the Easter break. This week is my last week at uni - only two more days to go and I'm done for three weeks! Lush!

Still feeling fat, even though I got those size 22 jeans on. I wish I could just see a bigger change in myself! Once I'm back from Cairo, I'm going to treat myself to a tailored suit for work as I should be a 16/18 by then. Brilliant! I'll be able to hold my head up high and feel proud of how I look. I can't wait! I know that now I've dropped a size, it will happen more quickly now - bring it on!

How are you all? It really is too quiet on here lately! x
 
Well done on the size 22 jeans! I am on day 2 now, day two of 84 lol! I know it soon flies by though! From doing this diet last year, might I offer some advice. It is so easy to not see a change in yourself, I didn't and I dropped from size 20-22 to size 14-16, I knew I was smaller, but couldn't see that much difference. Even in photos I took. It's only now that I've gained the weight back that I realise just how much smaller I was, I can't even get some of the clothes over my head or past my thighs. My advice is to believe others when they say 'wow you've lost weight' and take photos along the way in the same outfit, see how baggy it becomes! x
 
Thanks hun - trouble is, nobody has commented yet! Makes me realise how overweight I am that nearly 3st isn't noticed by anyone! My OH is the only one who comments but he knows I'm dieting. Perhaps people don't want to offend me? Who knows!

Chocolate shake crisis averted - managed to offload the yucky ones and order the ones I do like. Only have 7 yucky ones to get through now which isn't so bad at all! :D
 
I know what you mean, one of my friends never commented on my weight loss, and when the others asked her she just said she didn't want me to think she thought I needed to lose it. Some people don't comment on things like that, 3st is a lot of weight and I found that as I got lower, the bigger difference a couple of lbs made overall. Just look forward to the future lbs melting off as your body changes more quickly! x
 
Know that feeling, exhausted this morning! How's your MA going?
 
Youre doing brilliantly and I do think, especially is you are heavier, like we are, that people are a bit wary of commenting in case theyre wrong! I was 298lbs after I had my 2nd baby last May and Im now quite a bit lighter than i was and still, people that I havent seen recently or dont see often havent said a word. Its kinda upsetting but the way youre going you will keep dropping these pounds and then people WILL start saying something. And it will be sooner than you think. ;) xx
 
Thanks hun - I guess I'm just impatient! Xx

Caz - well done on your immense loss this week! The 15s are coming for you! :D

The MA is going well although deadlines are fast approaching (April/May) and I have 15,000 words of essays to write, one more presentation, an academic poster detailing my dissertation topic, and then the 20,000 word dissertation over the summer. Stress but also looking forward to getting stuck in! I also have to do my PhD application and start looking for a full time job. So stressful!
 
I am so sick of people giving me a hard time because I won't go out for meals with them! It's my decision - I don't want to eat out. They know I'm dieting so why do they keep asking me and then getting annoyed when I say no!? Grr! :mad:
 
I had that problem last time I did this diet. I had to miss out on bdays etc, but everyone was doing things revolved round food and I didn't want to go off plan, you're doing the right thing and people should be supporting you x
 
I'm having a bit of a problem at the moment with finding out who my real friends are - at this rate, there'll be none left! Screw them. I don't want to go out for food - if they were that desperate to have me there, they'd say cinema or something that doesn't involve food. One of them told me off for following a VLCD when she first found out - it's okay for her as she's tiny. Some people just don't understand.

I'm in a stinking mood today... :sigh:
 
And just to annoy me some more, I tried to ring the tax office to claim back the £231 they've taxed me (I haven't gone over my tax-free allowance so they shouldn't have taxed me at all) and I had to go through like twenty automated questions to get to an advisor before an automated message told me no-one could take my call and cut me off! :mad: SO MAD.

Oh well. Going to make myself an omelette and settle down with some Coke Zero in front of the TV! :rolleyes:
 
I am in a foul mood too, OH is pissing me off big time! haha... I had that mess with the tax office last month, got my rebate though! It's so annoying ringing anywhere nowadays, damn near impossible to actually speak to someone!
