Hi, I havent really ever posted much before, but today I am not really sure where else to turn to get some advice because weight loss wise, none of my friends or family no I am currently trying to lose weight or the battles in my head about losing weight. Anyway, things were going ok over the last few weeks but for the last 2-3 days I have been struggling to stay motivated. I currently live with 4 other girls, 3 of whom have never been overweight and one who has been overweight and has lost a fair amount. Anyway over the last couple of days...2 of the girls have been talking about the weight and people's weight in general while we eat dinner. I generally struggle with talking about my weight and weight loss as it happens so these conversations can make me feel very awkward. I generally don't say anything. One of them goes on and on about the calories in everyone else's food and I find this really difficulty she analyses the make up of food and not just her own. Hearing this and other weight related conversations is making me feel like crap...I am following a plan given to me by a trainer and once every few weeks he says to have a meal which is sensible but things that I really enjoy...but he says its good for me to do it. Anyway she obviously commented and it just made me feel crap and since that coment I've been feeling increasingly bad about my weight and stuff. I know I proably just need to man up but been having a lot of crap going on and just feels like everything is getting too much. But I don't want to give up on my weight loss but feeling awful about it all.

Sorry for the long essage!
