To tell the world...

That, after years of battling with my weight, going from 5 stone to 15, and everything in between... I have, a few minutes ago, fitted into my first pair of size 12 jeans?

I have no clue what I weigh...for the first time in my life i don't care! And there's no desire to get 'just that little bit lower'! I'm walking a half marathon on Sunday, and I KNOW I am actually physically strong enough to do it...without either fainting or running out of steam because of my weight!

Good for you OP - good luck on Saturday!

[KnitFastDieWarm]

SUNDAY, even!

[SquinkiesRule]

Well done.

Well done! It's great not caring and can be really hard to achieve!

Good luck for Sunday!

[Joolsy]

That's great - at the end of the day, weight isn't really important, it's how you feel in yourself. Well done!

[ollieplimsoles]

Massive achievement OP well done! Its a big thing to not care what those scales say after a lifetime of obsessing over it- I know!

[NealCaffreysHat]

YANBU, well done at finally being at peace with yourself and being strong enough to do the marathon.

[AuntyBatshit]

Thank you! I'm not counting calories, not (tmi sorry) throwing up then punishing myself... I'm fucking FREE!!!!!

[AuntyBatshit]

Having to walk with DH as, due to my sight, I need a guide...thinking of legging it and leaving him for dust

[TRexingInAsda]

YAy, well done Aunty, you're winning, whooop! xx

[MagpieCursedTea]

Well done! What an inspiration you are

[AuntyBatshit]

Thank you so much! I thought you'd all stretch about me bragging etc... I'm really not! I'm just so happy. I had to go into a sportstore to get outfits for me and DH...picked up a medium tee, and I wasn't being screamed at! ' That'll never fit, just lose a little more, don't eat from here to Sunday and you'll look fab', etc, etc...it's quiet!
