Hi all
some of you may know we had a family wedding to attend on Saturday at which several of the guests had not seen me since before i began my diet so it was a bit like a big reveal day for me to show what i have achieved so far.we had a great day and fab evening and there were several people who actually didn't recognise me!! many had to do a double take when they saw me walk in which was the most bizarre thing ever.I felt amazing throughout the whole day and for others to acknowledge what i have achieved over the last few months was a major boost,it was a strangely emotional day as hearing people discuss you while using the words stunning and gorgeous just doesn't happen to me!!
I just had to come on and share this with you sorry,i was beyond happy and makes the struggles of the last few months more than worthwhile :) xx

hoping i have managed to attach photos correctly on here so you can see a couple of pics from pre diet days to one of hubby and myself taken on Saturday.x

thank you :)
It was great and made me feel so much better about myself.x
was quite a shock to see the photo's and know it was me as its so hard to see a change in yourself on a day to day basis.x
 
Well done Donna amazing transformation x
 
Well done, such a change, ur looking great xx
 
Wow! Well done! You look amazing! I bet you feel fantastic!

I hope you are very proud of yourself!

Plus I notice the weight you had to lose is around the same as me. If I can have losses like yours every week I'll be overjoyed! xx
 
well done you look amazing. i had my daughter's wedding in August and had similar reactions from those who had not seen me in a while (3 stone down).it really makes you feel good about yourself. keep up the good work and remember that feeling when you are tempted to fall back to old habits. x
 
Wow you look amazing!! Well done, what an achievement!
 
wowsers! you are glowing... well done you! x

Thank you all so so much.xxx
Really do feel great at the moment and long may it continue :)
I certainly have no intention of returning to the old me,i am very lucky to have many good friends and a superb family to support me so i really have no excuse.
To add the photos Radical you scroll down to the additional options part under the comment box and in the attach files section click on manage attachments and add them there.x
 
Like this.. just testing. this is me being a porker in St Ives in July. Right after this a seagull stole my pastie! I took it as a sign from God! lol
