Perhaps this is a great idea. =)

MONTH THREE ACCOMPLISHMENTS:

> Went an entire month off the diet and eating whatever and did not gain even 1 single pound!!
> Was at a party with lots of desserts and didn't go crazy - had a small little maple pecan cakelet and a couple sugar cookies.
> Ate healthier than pre-diet.
> Did not feel like I had to finish every meal. Learned the merits of a to-go box premeal, so I can put food in it before I go crazy.
 
yay shell! welcome back. :) doing okay - not well as i've skivved off the diet.
 
Hey Georgia, wow anybody that fits into a size 8 can afford to lapse of the diet for a while, and well done on your learnings this month, I always love the way you can list the good bits.

hows things going, i've not caught up with ya in a while :p
 
Going okay. I'm trying to kick my littlER hiney into gear and say Hey Dummy! You're not htere yet!! Keep going!!

I've been told by doc that I should stick to SS+ because I've got some medicine I have t take. She said after a week or 2 if it isn't killing my stomach she will let me try a couple weeks of SS and see if it works out. I say that I'm trying toe SS, but last time my results for SS and SS+ weeks were exactly the same, so if they're the same again then why not have that 200 cal meal, yeah?
 
Thanks tazzi! Pictures will be up soonish. I think I've finally lost enough to be okay posting them.

I am sitting for my cousin while my uncle's out of town running a marathon. I showed up last night and the second I walked in the door he said, "Holy cow!!! You've lost a TON of weight!!" And he didn't know I was on a diet so it was really great!

I love it when peeps notice my weightloss, you must be so chuffed, its so encouraging :p keep up the good work, your doing brilliant :gen126:
 
I was! Oh man you have no idea! Lol!! And he's a super healthy nut guy - a policeman and a marathon runner. :) So for him to say I'm looking great is awesome. People at church are noticing too - "wow you're a shell of yourself!" And my hair stylist says, "Hey you've got a new body, when you get done with it come see me and we ill find you a new style, too!" :D

On the flip side, all the compliments make it much harder to get back on the diet and follow it right. I'm not the fat girl any more and I'm maintaining 100% so it's hard to get back on SS and remember that I didn't wan to be a 10/12 - I wanted to be a 4/6!
 
Georgia, it sounds like you need to get your eye on your goal again, ok first time round you were working on getting away from being fat, and that worked really well for ya, but like most of us, your halfway there so getting away from fat feels done, its now time to start working towards the 4/6 or whatever goal you originally gave yourself.

Look at dresses in that size, heck even treat yourself to one, hang it up and work towards fitting into it :p

I know exactely how you feel hun. My mum always tells me ive lost weight because that is the only thing she ever talks about. To be honest i am sick of going out with her and my step dad cos all they ever talk about is weight and calories. Thats all she judges me by....im like hey.....there is more to me than just my size.

But nice comments definately make it harder to have that motivation. x
 
Oh so I got a dress. It is absolutely gorgeous and marilyn monroe esque. And it is a UK 6. nd I am not far from fitting it!!!!!!

Allbeit it is a dress, my pants are still in the UK10/12... but still. It feels awesome to be so close to the uk6 dress. :-o

Good girl, now you've got your dress, you just gotta work the diet to get into it. Be 100% on diet and it won't be long ;)

Hi GT, not meaning to be mean ;) but if your 100% on diet then it will work, there must be little things in there that your doing....think about it and see.
