Hi there.
Just been browsing around and thought I'd get some opinions maybe.
I started dieting without realising it really, because it seems I am almost 9 weeks pregnant and feeling very sick ALL the time. My BF and I have decided to terminate (it's booked for in a few days time - and yes I'm sure it's right for me and I have thought long and hard over the past 3-4 weeks about it) so I know I don't have to worry about staying 'healthy', which is just as well seeing as I've barely forced down a whole meal for a couple of weeks now. I think the hunger doesn't help the sicky feeling, but then I can't even think of food because of sickness! Lol.
I guess if I could have picked this (minus being pregnant) it's actually a pretty good kickstart to losing weight, which I've really been struggling with for 3 years now, on that downwards slope... I say this because it requires no willpower, and although in it's basic form it would count as an eating disorder (starving myself), I really don't have a choice in it, and I'm sure it's only temporary until pregnancy hormones have gone.
Since I first weighed myself roughly 2 weeks ago I have lost 10.5lb (started at 192.5) but haven't noticed any physical difference other than tummy laying a bit flatter when I lay down (due to it being empty? lol).
Thing is now that I've almost 'accidently' started losing weight, I really want to keep it up. I want people to notice! Nothing better than hearing 'You've lost weight' eh? There's this one pair of jeans I bought a year or 2 ago, I never really fitted into them properly, but they're only about 2 sizes too small, hoping it's not impossible to aim to be in them for xmas?
I guess I don't really know what I expect people to say on all this. Just good to get it off my chest. I'm a sensitive soul, if you think I'm ignorant/stupid/annoying in anything I've said then please break it to me gently
