Wow what a night it has been tonight. I have just been to my week 8 weigh in and am thrilled that I lost another 6lbs but I feel absolutely exhausted after a really intensive counselling session. Our Counsellor decided that she wanted us to map out our lives in decades listing all the events that we remember whether they be happy or sad and then mark them as times when our weight was high, medium or low.
Sounds easy enough but when we were asked to read what we had written out to the class each person in turn became so emotional and tearful, it was amazing how everyone had written about all the sad thing that had happened to them. By the time everyone had read out their stories we were an hour over our time and we were all emotional wrecks, but we all feel like we know each other a lot more now and understand the reasons why everyone started this LL journey.
I just hope that no one went home and comforted themselves with a binge because it was really traumatic and I hope we donts have to do that again next week, dont think I could stand the pressure :wave_cry:
