Feeling deflated today

I'll start this by saying I know I'm being ridiculous. I've lost 40lbs going from 18 11 to 15 13 in the space of 11 weeks. Which I know is amazing. My issue is I've pretty much been in the 15's for the past ten years, (gained the extra 3 stone while TTC which I’ve carried for a couple of years) so I genuinely feel and look no different. I've looked at pics and no difference! I must hide weight well. I think it's a mixture of having no flattering clothes in this hot weather and potentially having PMS. Just needed to rant to people who understand!

I know how frustrating it is but you WILL get there and see a dramatic difference. It’s just a matter of time and patience I’m afraid.

Yes, been there, done that!
Didnt even drop a dress size until I was 2 stone down. BUT on our MJ starters thread we often talk about the kitchen roll idea where when you take a sheet off a full kitchen roll, it looks no different. But if you keep taking them and keep taking them, when the roll is smaller each sheet makes a bigger difference.
Keep at it, you're doing great so far and the thing that will win for you is consistency

Ha I like that analogy! I’m still the same dress size (18). I think I may get down to a 16 when I reach 14 stone, which I’d be so happy with! Thank you I know, I’m just being silly and I’ve lost almost 3 stone which is a huge accomplishment, some days are hard to be positive!

It's an enormous accomplishment! I'm nearing my own 3 stone loss now, I'm so chuffed. Are you on any of the MJ support threads? I'd join one if not, it's super helpful to have people at the same stage who can celebrate/commiserate with you
