Weight Loss
How to Lose Those Last Pesky Pounds?
Let’s find out
Ive been on a weight loss journey for the past nine months. I’ve lost 19 kg ( 41+1b). It has been a wonderful descent from size ex-large to ex-small💚
If you’ve lost weight yourself you know how it goes: the congratulations, compliments, and tentative questions about your slenderised body.
A regular acquaintance said to me the other day:
“Wow Deb, have you been working out over Christmas?”
I was dumbfounded. Only someone who has no idea about losing weight and lacks normal visual awareness could possibly attribute my level of weight loss to working out over Christmas!
But I digress.
The point is everyone around me thinks I look great and that should be that. I look slim and the worried looks have started:
“You look great but don’t lose anymore.”
“You need to keep some body fat incase you get sick (or there’s an apocolypse)”
“You don’t want to become obsessed with losing weight.”
