I got the comment "You're doing amazing, but don't get too skinny, ok?" yesterday, which was very sweet, but seeing as I'm still technically obese and at least 3 stone overweight, a little silly. I just took it that they were being a concerned friend, but I did sit there and think "When I was bigger, I was told I should…

Thanks for the replies ladies! Valerie, thankyou- I've kind of been kidding myself that I don't need to bother with exercise at the moment, because it won't make much of a difference on my body when I'm still this big. But you're right- I really need to get working on regular squats. What do you mean by weights, though?…

I completely get this, its not just the big achievements, its the little things too. Well done you, lol :)

Congratulations, well done you! I can't wait to hit one-derland :)

Exactly! Im so glad someone gets it lol, thought I was being odd.

I must be so odd, I'm British and I would love it if one of my colleagues said this to me.

Im a complete narcissist, I love it when someone comments on my weight loss. CHECK OUT MAH BODY, PEEPS!

This week I had my hair coloured / cut and my eyebrows and eyelashes tinted. This may seem silly, but its the first time in ages that Ive bothered to make a long-term effort with my appearance (not just throwing on some slap for a night out then going back to being a lazy frump the next day), because I feel so much more…

Absolutely amazing! I so want your body, you're an inspiration x

Ive decided when I hit my goal Im going to completely overhaul my image- On a day to day basis Im very frumpy and lazy with how I look, big baggy jumpers, trainers, slouchy jeans and not a scrap of makeup or anything done with my hair, and the only time I make an effort is (rare) nights out. But when Im slim, I dont know…

So happy for you! Thats brilliant! xx

Well said girl! I can identify with this COMPLETELY. Hear hear! :drinker:

Daily, in the am. Makes me stick to it a lot better.

Oh now, let's not be snarky, it's the OP's interests. They may not be the same as yours or mine, but they're important to her. If you don't like it, go read another post. Can't say I give two hoots about fashion myself, but it's nice to see someone so animated about what makes them happy :) I imagine how you feel about…

I dont think you need surgery at all, you've a lovely body you should be proud of. Well done on your loss!

I have lost a microwave. That's insane!

THIS! Its like they're p*ssed off with you for daring to try to better yourself, and you must be tricking them instead of working hard. Grrr.

Oh god, from everyone- I have lost 35lb, but still have 63lb till my goal- Im doing well, but still very overweight. My partner has told people that this diet is just one of my 'fads', one of my colleagues has told me 'its enough now, you're going overboard' (erm, still clincally morbidly obese, hello?!), and this weekend…
