@CrazyGoatLady my dh used to love my 'glorious buttocks'. Now I've got a flat pancake bum. But still a fat tummy! I blame menopause.
@Motnight "cheesecake - what's the point?" that is brilliant and exactly how I feel when I look at puddings. Previously I'd have known I was full but would have wanted 'just one spoonful' to taste the deliciousness, and before I knew it the plate would be empty. It still feels amazing that there is no battle, no willpower, I'm just not interested...
However, like others @NippyCrab @Fuffedoff I do find it hard having to work at meal planning. This week I've gone off chicken, so I'm mostly on soup, eggs, fish and the occasional sausage. Plenty of veg.
@WorriedRelative I also lost weight on the rice and hot weather holiday diet 
and actually I think (for me) that changing from a lower carb and higher protein diet for a couple of weeks has been good to change up my metabolism. Now if only I could afford to do that every 3 months!!
For anyone else planning to travel... I took my MJ pen with me and stuck to my scheduled injection days. Took the MJ pen in my hand luggage (in the plastic bag of 100ml liquids) and the needles in my hold luggage. No problems. I worried in case there might be any injection problem but I didn't risk taking an insulin pen. Where I was the weather was pretty hot and I didn't have access to a fridge. I don't think it was over 30 but pretty close. However the liquid in my pen remained clear and it still seems to be working OK, with plenty of supression. I had increased my dose to a massive 5mg (lightweight) so I had all my OTC aids with me - omeprazole, prunes, anti-sickness tablets. But it was all fine.
Psychologically: I was on a small group holiday and at times I did feel a bit awkward. I felt a bit 'observed' even though I probably wasn't and I imagine that the others (if they thought anything) would think I was rather picky about my food. In reality I am very far from a fussy eater. One day we had to pre-order lunch and I just did not fancy any of the options. I tried to insist that I'd be fine with some fruit but the others were equally insistant that I HAD to eat something. I wonder how often I did the same to others in the past, ignoring their legitimate preferences and trying to persuade them to eat as much as I was??? I also found it hard not knowing whether I was gaining or losing weight.'trust the process' was harder than I expected, even though it all turned out good.
@Blondeshavemorefun what a great photo. I am envious of you, and others, with hips and a proper waist. I have a slender frame and a straight square/oblong body, hardly an indentation where a waist might be. Just fat on top of the rectangular block.
