Hello folks
Just a quick one to tell you that I'm doing okay. It hurts when I swallow today but I'm not sure if that is LL related.
I'm seeing the weight drop off the on the scales (yes, I know you're not supposed to weigh yourself between sessions) and I can see it on myself. Yesterday I wore a skirt that fit in June and it kept falling down (embarrassing as you get up out of your seat in the cinema)! On future wearings on said skirt I will be sure to utilise a belt. I will continue to wear it as it is like a dear friend to me. A top that I bought recently that was a little baggy in the first place now looks kinda stupid.
I have a top I bought in March without trying on (foolish of me). I got home and put it on and it was pretty much skin tight but I didn't want to take it back though because it was super cute. I tried it on yesterday and it looks better. No puckering of the material around the boobage area. I think it will need a few more weeks before it is acceptable to wear outside though. It is getting there though, which is encouraging. I have clothes in a zillion different sizes in my wardrobe, so it will be fun to resdiscover clothes I haven't worn in a long time.
It'll be fun buying more clothes too! If I can afford it onces LL has taken its cut of my paycheck.
I had my first real 'outing' on LL yesterday. I went to the cinema and then to the pub for a veeeeery long time. I had a shake before I went out and then sat in the cinema with the bottle of water permanently attached to my mouth like a baby with a dummy. My belly started rumbling a bit but I wasn't particularly hungry. Managed to go the whole film without peeing, which I thought was an achievement. Did have to rush out at the end though. 'So, what do you think?' my friend said 'I think I need to pee!' I said.
Then we spent an age trying to find a particular pub (I'm new to driving, so get lost easily). Failed to find the pub in question and so went to a different pub. Realised we had no money so went to Co-op to get money. My friend then said he was hungry and decided to buy a ploughmans sandwich and Doritos, I wasn't that phased but I did eye up a cheese salad in the refridgeration unit.
We got back in the car and he proceeded to eat his lunchy snacks. I felt okay but his crisps did smell nice. Off we went again in search of the first pub but yet again I could not find it so I filled up on petrol and then decided to drive across the forest. Didn't really have a clue where I was going but ended up outside a pub in Brockenhurst that had parking (woo hoo!) so stopped there for a while. I had to explain the whole 'not even a slice of lemon. If it has lemon in it, I can't drink it' thing to my friend. Got my tap water, my friend got their beer/lager/whatever and we sat outside. I very self-consciously ate my peanut bar. It was sooooo good but I didn't like eating it in front of someone. And there we sat for hours upon hours and I knocked over two glasses of water.
Anyway, nearly work time. Best be off!
