35lbs to go

hey i have logged in to mfp for 65 days now and lost 22lbs. I have 35lbs to go and could do with some motivation/support. its hard to keep going when everyone around eats whatever and laughs at me measuring and counting my food and calories. sorry for the rant lol.

    Hey

    Congrats on the 65 days and the 22lbs, what a great achievement.

    Don't give up! Just think, if you stopped now, you will be the same weight come the summer or you may have even gained!

    If you carry on, you could well be 32lbs lighter by July and basically at goal.

    It is hard, I know it is. Maybe allow room for some treats every now and again so you don't feel like you are depriving yourself when everyone else is eating around you?

    Good luck!

    Just keep it up, for yourself. Some day those folks who are laughing or teasing you will break down and give you the compliments and admiration you deserve. That will be SWEET! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Lol I feel ya. I laugh about that whole everyone laughing at you measuring your food. It happens in my house too, don't feel bad. 22lbs is a great loss. Just think about how great you'll feel when the next 22 come off and your goal is so close you can taste it. Keep pushing and remember this is for you, not them. They'll be jealous when you look amazing and they're just shoving donuts in their mouths. Good luck, and keep pushing thru!
