Doubts

Well this week I lost another two pounds - thats 9 in total now!  Really pleased with that loss. 

If I can keep with my aim of losing half a stone a month - it could take me about 8 months to get to my target.  As one of those months has now passed I just wish that I could see eight lines somewhere and just cross one out with a big piece of chalk.

Am now a little scared.  Half a stone or ten pounds have been the most I have ever been able to lose before.  Doubts keep creeping into my head as to whether I can manage this another seven months.  I have been overweight my entire life it is hard to believe that I can ever be a healthy weight.  Equally so there is something different this time - the energy around this diet seems more powerful and achievable... 

After seeking advice from the Minimins forum - I have decided that I am thinking to much and that I really should take one day at a time.  Have also set myself a mini goal of ensuring that I lose two and a half stones by January so that I can tell my doctor to stick his 'alternative contraception' up his miserable arse. 

Feel better now, anger and bitterness do help occasionally.
