I have officially lost 6 stone today and I am no longer obese or overweight according to my BMI, I am a healthy weight Grin
Now where’s that cream cake I bought to celebrate!

I feel bloody great stevie I’m not longer uncomfortable at looking in the mirror or walking into a room a feeing like everyone is looking because I’m so large.
I can now walk into a room and not need anyone’s approval because I now I look good (shit that sounds big headed blush) and I’m confident in my own skin.
Sure I’ve still got wobbly bit and stretch marks but they’re smaller wobbly bits!

Truly amazing. I can relate exactly to what you say, believe me. I lost the same amount of weight and look at myself in the mirror. Every. Single. Morning Blush

Enjoy it. Now and forever Smile

That's bloody brilliant, hope you enjoyed your cake. I have a similar amount to lose and it seems pretty impossible at the moment but you've given me hope that it can be done.

MumW · 15/11/2017 17:48

Well done you deserve your little treat but go easy on the Cake ;-) It would be a shame to undo all your hard work.

Funclesmuck · 15/11/2017 17:53

Well done OP. I read the title, rolled eyes and thought what the hell are we supposed to be clapping about for this one. Read your post, and wow, that’s fucking amazing. Boast until the cows come home. YANBU

6 stone in a day can't be healthy!

OliviaPopeRules · 15/11/2017 19:58

Brilliant well done that is amazing 😀

Tiredtomybones · 15/11/2017 21:48

Really well done! I’ve lost nearly 4 stone this year and want to lose at least another couple. You’re an inspiration.

Maelstrop · 15/11/2017 21:57

Bloody amazing, well done!

I think you hit the nail on the head, you have to be in the right frame of mind. It just doesn't work if you aren't.

StickThatInYourPipe · 15/11/2017 22:41

Well done OP!!! Flowers

GiBlues · 16/11/2017 09:31

Thank you all, I treated myself to that new dress and looking forward to strutting my stuff!

Congratulations. That is an amazing achievement.

deepestdarkestperu · 16/11/2017 11:58

Wow!! That's amazing OP, well done! :)

RefuseTheLies · 16/11/2017 12:02

Bloody well done! I'm insanely jealous. I have a similar amount of weight to lose and I'm struggling badly with motivation. I need to get my arse in gear so that maybe this time next year, I'll be able to post my own boasting thread!

ChocolateBubbleBarsmakemefat · 16/11/2017 12:14

That's fantastic, I would be shouting it from the rooftops!

Well done OP

MistressDeeCee · 16/11/2017 14:21

Brilliant! Go you. Make sure you strut, too

BitOutOfPractice · 16/11/2017 14:25

That is absolutely brilliant!
