I am so short, I can't carry an extra ounce. I am feeling sorry for myself. I've eaten a bit less than I really wanted to for about three days in a row now, which is good. But it will takes weeeeeks of this.

I am size 12 and 9 stone and a half stone.

How much weight would I have to lose to look slim? Not thin. I could never be thin. But I'd like people to look at me and think, those trousers are lovely. Not, those trousers could be nice on a slimmer person.

Ha ha widgypog.. maybe? are your initials LEG??!

Seriously though..........

I had my boobs properly measured today and I am a 34 A. I said to the woman ooh I don't think I am an A cup! and I insisted on trying a b. But it was wrinkly in the cups. She looked me in the eye and said "you're an A cup honey".

I used to be a c cup before I had children. HEY HO. One more sacrafice I guess

Titchy< i was watching a programme on UK living I think, about two journalists trying to get down to size zero. It was quite funny actually. ONe of them was called Kate Spicer. She seemed very normal, but she got a bit too into the dieting and started getting addicted to colonic irrigation.

Anyway...... I don't think I could EVER summons up the willpower. When I was a UK size 8 I felt thin. I knew I was 'magazine' slim rather than healthy slim, but I sort of liked it and sort of didn't. I felt there wasn't enough of me. Although maybe a psychologist would have put that down to some other self-esteem issue! I don't know!
