Weight Loss Update

Hey guys,

I'm sure you've been curious about how I'm doing. Only okay, to be honest.

By now, I lost 11 kg and am holding that weight, which isn't bad, but I want to lose more. Life got in the way though..

With the death of our family dog and the black hole I fell in afterwards, I kinda stopped thinking about working out and counting points. I'm finally feeling better and am starting again to work on my body and nutrition.

I told you that I joined Weight Watchers and it really worked great, I constantly lost about a 1 kg a week, but I also payed 20€ a week for going there just to weigh myself..

There is an one hour course each week, but it's like a group therapy with topics such as "Stock your refridgerator right". I'm not the group therapy girl, so I usually skipped these courses and 20€ a week was too much just for using their scale.

I know how the system works, so I thought I can do this myself, but I must admit that as soon as I stopped going, it became much harder. The motivation and the "pressure" to succeed is gone and you get sidetracked way too easily. So in some way, I regret quitting, but as a student it's just so expensive..

It's twice as hard to keep going, but I'm really gonna try again, one just needs willpower and since I'm finally feeling better I'm positive I can do it on my own.

I'd love to copy and upload all the documents you need for using their system so you can try it without spending so much money, but I'm pretty sure I'll get sued by them if I'm doing that..

I decided to show you a picture of myself, not just of my face. It's not easy for me, cause I hate myself, but on the other side I think (or at least my therapist told me - yes I'm in therapy and not ashamed of it) it's important to be proud of each step as well.

This outfit is a big deal for me. You can't see it well, but I'm wearing trousers, something I haven't done for over a year, if not longer. My old one didn't fit anymore and now it does again. I'm also wearing this lovely coat I bought in Edinburgh which then only barely fit me, now it does. 

What do you think? Do you like me? 

Kronos does or I guess he's wondering why the hell I'm (for once) not focusing on him. Such a poor dog.. Maybe someone should call animal protection.. ;-)

Love,

Guinevere
