Do you have days

I am haveing one of those days.. where you still feel real real fat? This is the first day like that. I have been really proud of myself.... and everyone has been so good to me.with compliments and praise ... and I have been on the top of the world. Tonite I have tickets to go see The Beach Boys... There will be scads of us old people there. Well today I am going to wear m y one decent outfit ,that fits me well, but for some reason I am thinking fat!!!. I have already been able to get rid of clothes and have more to go..but I wanta eat. Drat it anyway. I know I am probably PMSing... yes girls even old ladies do that. But I want to get this weight off. I know that 40 lbs in 11 weeks isn't bad... especially since I haven't been this light for 15 years. Thank you for leting me vent. I know that tonite I will probably see someone that hasn't seen me for awhile and I will be on the top of the world again. Good luck to all. Alice

cyber hugs ((Alice)) I love the Beach Boys! I was worried you were going to back out and not go! I hope venting helped. I am ALL about instant gratification. I want to be thinner NOW! (it is not happening). Hope you have a wonderful time! let us know. judi

I guess I'm an old lady too. I like the Beach Boys, haven't seen them in concert in 23 years, and I PMS. Hope you had a great time! Jen

Thanks both of you! I am eating my cottage cheese and raspberry jelly now.. Then will head out the door. My daughter is going with me. So I will enjoy her company too. Take care Alice

Alice ...Lady you got it going on!!!!!!!!!!!!! 40lbs gone in 11 weeks that's fabulous!!!!!!!! But I do have those feeling fat days as well...So I do know how you feel......I am glad to see that you are going....And hope you have lots of fun!!

I have those days. Believe it or not they are on the days when I actually just fit into the next size smaller (go figure). I finally figured it out. I got so use to wearing clothes that were loose, that when I put on clothes that fit, they felt tight - making me feel fatter. Know what I mean. Hope you enjoyed the Beach Boys.

Darling....I think we ALL have those days! Hope the concert was WONDERFUL, a little jealous here. You are doing FABULOUS! I like Delores' take on it....maybe that's it. We get into smaller clothes, but they fit a bit better and don't feel as loose. Hmmmmm?! Pam

Honey, I am right there with you. Even though I've made progress, I have to make myself remember that I am still a work in progress. My clothing sizes still say 20-something on the label (granted its a lower 20-something than before!). All my friends say they can see a huge difference, and even my husband, who has adopted the "curve test" says he can see and feel the difference. I still look and feel the same to me. I can still look down and see that mound of belly and think to myself "I'm never going to be thin, this isn't going to work for me either." But then, that stuff usually happens to me right around PMS time, and later on in the week I feel much better and I get on with life. This will pass sweetie and you'll be feeling great again in no time. I hope you enjoyed your concert! Donna
