Some pampering sounds so nice! Gosh I haven’t ever had the confidence to go for any manicures or pedicures in my life. I struggle just to go for a haircut. I need to work on that.

I’m so used to just wearing trainers (sneakers) for comfort. The only dressy shoes I’ve owned for years is a pair of black flat shiny shoes. Time to be more adventurous!

Nowhere...yet. I’m planning for the future, slim me. :)

Haha, you never know...someone may be itching to ask about steel boots!

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll see if I can find them.

Thank you! I’m curious as to how my legs will look once I meet my goal — lol.

I just had yet another person in my village comment on my weight loss. 3 in one day! Awesome! :)

Don’t worry — it really is not the IF that causes weight loss, it’s just that some people find it easier to eat fewer calories when doing IF. If you eat the same calories spread throuout the day, you’ll be doing just as well and should lose just the Same.

I was out walking in my village today and two of my neighbours commented on my weight loss and both at separate times so I knew they weren’t just agreeing with the other haha. One lady told me I look fantastic. What a lovely feeling and one reason I love living in my wee community. :)

To reach 70lbs total loss!

Thank you :)

Well done. Excellent result. Hard work is worth it. :)

That’s a fantastic loss. It’ll be a year for me in June and so far I’ve lost just 62lbs but still feel proud. I still have another 100 to go :/

I do IF but I don’t believe it is responsible for my weight loss because I also did IF when I was 300lbs. I have always done it naturally since I’ve never been one for breakfast and more often than not I would wait until about 5pm to eat and then eat all evening, meaning I was eating far too much. I do believe calorie…

Oh wow, those are stunning. Wish I could wear them! Hopefully some day soon!

I’m not entirely sure but I’d love to be able to afford a trip abroad at some point but that’s doubtful since my priority, once I have lost enough weight is to have a breast reduction, which I’ll be getting privately so will be a couple of grand. I’m hoping that will be in 2019. Other than that, finishing up this college…

That’s what I’m telling myself. It’s no big deal really but I just think it would be humiliating. But, there’s no way of getting out of going so I’ll just have to grin and bear it. Like you said, I can always use the humiliation as a motivator lol.

Flying into City Airport. It’s the whole embarrassment factor that I’m dreading. I hate the thought of having to tell the steward that I need an extension lol. I’m hoping the seatbelts are similar in size to the ones on megabius gold because even at my biggest, they still fastened (just) so it would be good if that were…

Hi all. I finally got below 250 today so I’m excited. Still much too heavy but I haven’t seen this number in a very long time. I had a plateau for a while but I’m 4lbs down today, thankfully. Glad you had a good time, Ang. I’m off to London next weekend and am terrified of the flight...more specifically, the airport. Well…

This is something I struggle with big time. I’ll be doing really well and then all of a sudden, out of nowhere I’ll start to feel ravenously hungry. It’s crazy. I know to expect it and don’t often give into it but I sometimes plan my treat days around then so that I can give in without feeling too guilty. Sometimes I just…

You should be congratulating yourself on having the strength to say no. I think that’s great, well done.

You’ve taken the very important first step, well done for doing that. It’s definitely difficult to do make that first step but once you’re mentally prepared for the challenge, it seems to make it easier. Best of luck to you. :)

Hmm, interesting haha. Not someone I’ve ever been compared to before but I’ll take it as a compliment. I am a singer so there’s that haha. :)

I think it means that a person’s post is like woo science — as in not actual science or not based in fact but myth. It’s often the case that there are commonly held beliefs but the belief is not based on any kind of objective research and thus it never goes away. Many people continue to believe for example, that fasting…

I don’t understand why a couple of people thought this comment is ‘woo’?

I’m exactly the same. I’m very large up top. In fact, one reason I want to lose weight is so I can have a breast reduction. I don’t tend to lose much on the chest area as it’s naturally big but I’ll at least lose the excess fat before I qualify for surgery.

I had the same thing happen to me a couple of weeks ago. It felt great. :)

Fantastic. Well done. :)

I just received an order of new clothes that were two sizes smaller than the previous order and they are too big—yay! :)

Me too but I’ve enjoyed learning a bit more about everyone. :)
