I’ve been a bit quiet again recently, I keep logging in but don’t seem to really blog or comment much.
Things are still going well, I’ve lost the last couple of weeks, with a 2lb loss this week which was slightly suprising as I was at a wedding last weekend and drank way too much. I also ate two of the largest profiteroles I have ever seen in my life, they were each about the size of a grapefruit, I was expecting one or two petite little things which wouldn’t have been too bad. I shouldn’t have eaten them both and I did feel quite ill afterwards.
I didn’t even feel like eating anything from the buffet at the evening do, even though it was a nice spread although that might have been due to the copious amount of alcohol I consumed.
It was a family wedding and things went as well as could be expected. It was quite a refined affair and not really my thing. I never know what to wear and then to think I look a bit of a sight whatever. My mum wanted me to be in a dress or a skirt but I haven’t worn either for at least 10 years and I would have been even more uncomfortable, she eventually saw a bright pink floaty top and told me to buy it. I hated it but at least I din’t get earache from her or my gran about what I was wearing.
My grandad was being his usually tactless self, telling all and sundry that even though I looked like I did, that I had lost weight recently. He has quite a loud voice and he even did it in the wedding chapel, while we were waiting for the bride. He was also making sarking comments everytime I ate or drank something. I tried to ignore it but it still hurts. I wasn’t going to be fussy about what I was eating at a wedding, there was no choice and I was having a day off. I know I’ve let myself get to this point but it can’t all disappear overnight and I’ve lost 37lbs since January.
I knew the weekend wasn’t going to good eating wiseI was staying at my parents and they don’t really understand. As soon as I got home again I was straight back on track and a 2lb loss is a testament to my determination not to let the eating or comments affect the rest of the week.
I’ve bought a few new bits of clothes for my holiday (including a new swimsuit arrggghhh) but I’m hoping to buy some clothes in Florida while I am there as there is only really one shop I can buy from here and I’m lead to believe the choice is better over there.
So can anyone recommend any good stores for the larger lady?
