Well panic over now..it's been and done!
I saw the dietician and i nearly fainted when she said my weight loss was to be as expected and that I shouldn't be so hard on myself and i was doing fine!
She said my diet was fine and so was the quantity, but I should slow down eating and take 20+ mins to eat a meal...(instead of the 5 or so it take now lol ), plus she advised I do more weight bearing exercise although the water aerobics i am doing now is good.
What surprised me was that she said after 6mths out they would expect me to lose about 1-2 kg a month!! This was a revelation to me! I told her that obviously I wanted to lose more than that...she pointed oput to me that if i lost 1kg a mth for the next year i would lose 2stone...which would bring me into the 13stone bracket....which actually isn't bad although i wish to me in the 10sone bracket! lol
She advised me to do a journal and write 3 nice things every evening that had happened or was said to me, to help improve me self esteem. And that I should just chill out about how much i am or aren't losing and accept that i'm doing great! lol
We got a puppy 2 weeks ago and just waiting for her 2nd lot of jabs to be finished and then i will be walking her day and night for exercise!! :chores016:
