    Hi guys,

    That was exactly what I was going to say Steph ~ are you saying Rob, that a 19 st person couldn't get into a size 10 eventually? I've been as much as 21st, and a lady I worked with said I'd just have to realise that I'd never be a size 10, and to go for something more realistic like a 16 :mad:

    A family member also told me that our family is full of chubbies and I'd never get under 12st. Although my mum and dad are thin, my aunty and nan are chubbies. But they over eat :o so doh!

    I must say at the moment I'm a curvy size 12, and I haven't weighed myself for a good while (we know why) but I expect I'm around 13st 2lb. As I'm 5ft 5 1/2 in I'm 3st over weight according to 'the book' but like I said I'm a size 12 :o

    I'd love for the scales to say 10 st, or even 11 st, just so I knew I actually was thin. I'll have a look next thursday and see how I've done, then maybe rethink?

    no im not saying someone who is 19stone couldnt lose enough weight to fit into a size 10 but the previous poster said that as long as you feel healthy and could get into the clothing size of your choice wieght wasnt an issue im saying its both .....at 19st you cant get into a size 10 but if you stuck to the plan and lost weight then you would be able too

    Thanks for the clarification Rob, I get it now, and thanks for the congratulations :beer:

    Everyone says "you must be so proud of yourself" But I'm not remotely. I'm SO embarrassed and ashamed that I ever weighed so much that I had to lose that amount! There is a lady at work who KEEPS GOING ON and on about how much I've lost. I haven't told anybody the numbers, but they can see it must be alot. She keeps saying "you've done so well? How much have you lost now? Oh you're doing so well, oh you're so good, oh you've done so well" and I know she is only trying to be supportive because she is really kind, but I just want to say "shut up going on about it!!!"

    I want to forget I was ever that fat! A new lady started work with us last week, and when we were introduced it was the first thing she told her about me. I nearly died, because it is really nice to meet people who don't know, and just think I'm a normal thin person :o

    I think I do weigh more than I look and alot of that is skin on my arms and tummy. I have to fold my skin up like some sort of origami figure to tuck it in my trousers. Charmimg :o Sorry to those eating their tea :eek:

    It really bugs me how thoughtless people can be :( I've had odd comments over time and I almost want to say something back but I'm too polite too.

    Hi Eric,

    It's funny because I've actually said several times "oh I don't like to talk about it, I'm embarrassed about it, oh it's private" but she still doesn't stop it. Out of the blue she just comes up to me and says "oh you've done so well" and I keep thinking "Oh go away!!" :mad:

    Once, when I was in the middle of a few days bingeing, I bought a snickers bar from the Tuck Shop, and she saw me eating it in the staff room and said loudly in all sincerity "oh good girl well done, it's really good to see you eating a treat when you've been so good for so long well done" and I just wanted to say "mind your own business!!"

    My dissordered eating is private, but you'd be shocked how many people think it's public property :o
