aanbrown got a reaction from KeeWee in You know you lost weight when
KeeWee I totally get it. Actually before I lost the weight I saw this coming like a freight train. I feel the same. I use to get tons of compliments etc prior to losing the weight, I was gorgeous and shapely. Big boobies (42 G) and nice rear. Definitely an hour glass. But now even though I still feel beautiful it's different now. I'm married as well and hubby is loving it but I do want to still feel like Im attractive to others. Lol

aanbrown reacted to Angelkeeper4 in reality check
I too lost my husband when I was 39 and there are times I want to just dive into my old comfort foods. There are plans for my life that had to be rewritten and that pisses me off. But...that said...this is when you have to dig deep and do it for you. Write your own story with a happy ending. God knows its hard....but you are worth fighting for.
I know I am.

I know this is frustrating, but I swear it works. Have you tried clean eating? It's really quite simple. No processed foods, no refined sugars Cook from scratch at least 85% of the time. Read labels at the market. Do not buy anything with more than 10 ingredients listed or ingredients you need a science degree to decipher. I still drink coffee, for sweeteners I use the real deal organic sugar, raw honey occasionally real maple sugar and coconut sugar. I don't care for agave, but that's allowed as well. I also limit the amount of simple carbs I eat so minimal white rice, Pasta & breads. 3 months after I cleaned out my pantry I felt 100% better. More energy and my palette changed. Since the sugars I was getting were all natural I didn't crave them like I used to. I could put a tsp of sugar in my coffee instead of a tbsp and be satisfied. I discovered I not only liked the taste of crisp, clear, plain Water, I craved it!
You've come this far, keep fighting. Once I got the hang of this it became second nature. The only thing I do not drink are sodas. I don't feel deprived for one single minute.

The wrapping the bath towel all the way around me with no gap and some to spare is the best. It's a great reminder every morning.
Oh, and... uhm ... intimacy is sooo much better, too. (someone had to say it!!)
