"It won't hurt you"
or
"Are you still watching what you eat?"
with me here....
can you get my drift....
Isn't it funny how people comment on what you eat... do you think they would tell me not to eat something if I was 150kg??? I think not...
I have been guilty of those comment above myself.. in my other life... now I know better!!
I believe that anyone who has been over weight and has fought the battle to lose it and keep it off NEVER stop watching what they eat.
Sounds depressing doesn't it.. but that is the reality. I can remember when that light bulb went off (I may have blogged about it..) and I was in a little bit of a depressed state for a couple of days when I realised that I will never be able to just eat anything my heart desires IF i wanted to remain slim. But then.. the second light bulb was turned on and it means more to me to he healthy, fit and slim then choosing to eat cheesecake, KFC and god dammed fuckin' Hungry Jack's Whoppers (31 friggins WW points in one of those suckers..)
It is my choice to eat what I do. I never make a song and dance about my food choices. I don't read a menu and get the "Food Police" pen out and work out which choices will keep me running for a week to burn off.
So why do people comment??? (they are usually ones with a weight problem themselves..)
My opinion... they would secretly love nothing more then to watch me blow out to 80 + kg again. I am sure that they (well most) aren't conscious what what they are saying and thinking at their back of their head.."see.. I told you she would just put it all back on again.."
Well my little saboteurs... my life.. my choice.. and I choose to be slim and fit!

OH so well said... totally agree.
LOVE IT!
Totally agree with everything you said. Who on earth is trying to sabotage you?
You know, of all the weight loss bloggers, I have never ever felt liek you'd ever be one to put the weight back on. Cause you get it.
Thanks for your compliments today.
Hey there. Thanks so much for your comment, it made me feel good to know that someone who has been there and overcome, is listening! I like the idea of the paper towel in the kitchen, i used a tissue yesterday evening and im going to get some paper towel tonight. Its like that isnt it (well for me anyway) i get something in my mouth and im like "oh shit, well i cant spit it out now...." then one mouthfull turns into a serve and so on and so on.
Ive started weighing my food again and tracking. Its crazy to see the difference in what I say is a serve to what actually is!! a huge wake up call. Its almost like i had all my weightloss knowledge removed by aliens, but slowly Im learning again.
Thanks for you support
My dad has always been a shocker for these sorts of comments - directed at me. I was about 59kg as a teenager and this was the sort of conversation that occured at every meal time he attended. No bloody wonder I went AWOL when I left home and ate until the cows came home.
