No one noticed

[11stoneTess]

I know I am being ridiculous.

I have lost 2 stone over lockdown. I've gone from a 16/18 to a size 12.

I met up with friends I havent seen since March, and no one noticed my weightloss. And I know there are a million very good reasons why no one noticed, or noticed but said nothing.

I have lost weight. I know this to be a fact. Why do I feel sad that this undisputed fact wasnt validated by someone else?

What do I need to work on so that i'm not desperate for external validation?

I'm battling cravings today, which I know is some sort of 'sod it' response. I'm not going to cave in.

To me, commenting on a person’s weight loss is akin to saying “I see your acne has cleared up”. You may notice but it would be so crass to discuss it, unless they brought it up and wanted to talk about it.
