We're all in it to lose weight, but there's so much more than just seeing the numbers tick down on the scales.
Anyone who's been on it for a little while knows that it can be a bit of a roller coaster at times - there's the side effects here and there, there's the dreaded "stalls", there's the secrecy around it in some cases, but there's also the weight loss, seeing the numbers go down on the scales, or your favorite pair of jeans get all loose and baggy and suddenly not quite fitting into your old clothes anymore, there's the new-found confidence, or seeing your photo taken and not cringing at the image because "wait a minute I actually like what I see"...
You get the gist. So what's IT for you so far? What's been the highlight of your journey to date?
Mine is my mind is finally catching up too and it's fascinating, I look in the mirror and in the past week or so, I am finally seeing the difference (for reference, I've been on it for almost 13 weeks, lost 18 kg / nearly 3 stone). I felt that I looked the same and I felt kind of the same the past 2.5 months and then out of nowhere I see it for myself. It's amazing. One huge highlight has also been the supportive community I have found here, as cheesy as it sounds. I have a very supportive DH, who knows about it, I've spoken with him at lenght before even taking the plunge, but I have found my people in here, and it feels amazing to have a tribe. We're all on our own unique journeys...yet we're also on the same journey together, and I think that's beautiful.
