Although I can't say at the moment I'm being negative. But it just creeps up on me sometimes.
I'm on a weight loss journey, have been for possibly six weeks now. So far I've lost just over a stone.
Problem is, I have a lot of weight to lose (piled on after having DC) so a stone at the moment doesn't make much of a difference to my appearance.
Regardless, I'm excited, and I keep looking forward to when I can fit back into my nice comfy clothes that I used to wear before DC. Whenever I go to the supermarket, I'm eyeing up things I would want to wear when I'm back to my regular weight. Prior to DC I was a size 10 - now I'm a size 16, but bordering on 18. My clothes are very large and are getting a tiny bit too baggy but I'm not planning to buy any more until I reach my target, that's my reward.
I just keep having pangs of worry that I'm going to fail, and it's the most annoying feeling ever! Logically I know that if I continue one day at a time, I can do this. But for some reason, my brain won't let me focus on that fact for very long.
Anybody with any positive stories? Words of caution? A proverbial slap around the face to stop whining? Anything that might help me keep going?
TIA
