Talking Random stuff
As of yesturday (6/4/13) I weigh 184.2 pounds! It is soooo effin awesome I can't even BEGIN to tell you!!!! I've lost 127 pounds in 10 months and 4 days! I hope when I'm done with IP that I'm still the person that grabs the water from the vending machine and fills up on veggies and salads and not CRAP! I feel soo much better eating better foods and less of it.

When ppl compliment me on my weight loss, I LOVE it, but a part of me feels so guilty taking praise. I can't help but think "If I had any self control in the first place, I would never have gotten to 335 pounds in the first place!!"

I walk differently now...I strut! Also, I feel like a woman for the first time in A LONG TIME and not an asexual blob of flesh! Yay me! One more thing.....I've noticed that when I meet new ppl I'm kind of disappointed that they don't know that I've lost over 100 pounds. I think I may becoming a compliment hound!! Thanks for reading, have a great night!

-Megan

Congrats to you!! Losing a significant amount of weight is SUCH an accomplishment. I've been there my self and I can completely agree with you on feeling a bit ashamed. I actually have never to disclosed to anyone I know in person the actual amount of weight that I lost. People that knew me before can see the significant change and some have asked how much i've lost, but I never disclose the #. Weight is such a touchy issue...

Maybe i'll feel confident enough when i'm done with IP...

Way to go!!!! Simply amazing!! Don't you feel great??

I think I know what you mean about meeting new people - I went to a workshop recently and sat with a bunch of people I did not know -on the way home it occurred to me that they thought I was just a regular sized person: this thought was very odd to me. In my mind I am not a regular sized person

I have noticed that people I meet treat me differently than when I was so heavy - I don't know if it is because as you said - I too carry myself differently and am more comfortable in my own skin or if it is because people in general just treat fat people badly.

I think it is partly because I don't believe this is really me and I also worry that people noticing has been encouraging and has helped keep me on track and worry that when that ends I might loose my mindset. I don't think so but some days I am still so unsure of myself.....

I've lost 35 pounds and already I can feel my confidence growing. I feel so much better about myself, my clothes fit better etc... I do have one confession though-I'm still wearing some of my bigger clothes because it helps me to realize how far I've come and if I'm being honest, people seem to notice how much I've lost if my clothes are falling off. That is awful. I need to suck it up and not want the accolades from others. But, it is nice.........
