I'm not sure how to phrase this... do you ever find people's expectations of your weight loss a bit strange?
To explain, I've been quite heavy for a long time, long enough I suppose that people are used to the idea of me being big. But I've been on a diet for three months now, have lost just over two stone... yet when I talk to people about my weightloss, I get the impression they think I've finished now. It's like the idea that I could get down to a size twelve never even occurs to them, they still think to me a successful diet will leave me bigger than average.
It makes me wonder if I'm being a bit unrealistic thinking I could be a normal size!
