Since I went to the states and got engaged, then found out my brother was dying, then lost my brother to cancer, I have been in a holding pattern with my weight. Some days it drops, and other days I weigh the same damn number. BUT.
I found this old pic today and for my own sake, I'm going to post this to remind myself I HAVE LOST WEIGHT.

20kgs is amazing Bethany. Get some perspective. 6 to go. YOU CAN DO IT.

You must be pleased with your progress and the fact that you are stable at the moment and not gaining (an achievement in itself) when you are having an emotional time in your life. Keep up the good work.

You've lost a TON and i promise you its very noticeable! I know the headgames suck, but thats why its so important to have the before pics to remind of how far we've come. You're looking fab and especially with everything you've been through I reckon you're doing TERRIFICALLY :D

Still got a little pot belly but that won't go away thanks to 5 x injections daily. But I can live with that! Thank God for corsets and sucky-inners!

To put your progress into some kind of context, I'll ask just one question. Did you wear shorts last Summer?
Kate
P.S. You are glorious!

None above the knees, for sure!! I'll never be a 'diaper shorts' kind of girl (you know the ones that look like a giant nappy, where the pockets are longer than the pants?) but I am enjoying wearing mid thigh shorts and not feeling dimply!!!

Now I'm really showing my age. I just don't get those shorts where the pockets hang below the hem line.

P.S. When school goes back I have two staff members who persist in wearing diaper shorts to school. I love them both - and they both have gorgeous legs. I have to deal with this. Not sure how I'll do it!
