Well, after I updated my stats after weigh in last night I realised I have now lost 80lbs with about another 20lbs to go. 80 sounds like such a massive number! It's strange though how the head really isn't in tune with what everyone else sees. I even had people saying to me last night in my group, "are you sure you've got another stone and a half to lose?" As I said to them, fully clothed it's not looking too bad but I sure do have an awful lot of belly left. People have started calling me skinny - which I know I am not and it's lovely hearing it but I just don't see it. It's a relative thing I know but how can I possibly be even close to goal and RTM when I go into Next today, try on a size 16 top and whilst I can get it on it is nowhere near fitting right?
It's odd and I know I am not saying anything different or experiencing anything different than pretty much everyone on here but I am confused! Will I ever feel slim? Will I ever be able to go on a shopping trip and not feel disappointment at the sizes at least once?
Don't get me wrong I am loving LL and the changes it has bought me and I know that abstinence is the easy part, when food comes back into my life properly then the hard work really begins but I just don't get it all most of time (does that make sense?)
