Thought I had better say that I'm not still in a strop. I haven't posted since because, well frankly I couldn't be bothered. :-)
After my last post a friend send me a lovely message that calmed me down somewhat but also started me thinking about my blog and my weightloss and why I'm doing all this.
I went back and read my very first post which I haven't read or thought about in such a long time. I got very emotional reading it. Remembering everything, what life was like before, what it was like thinking I was going to die and I cried buckets reading the bit about the race for life, remembering just how big a deal that was for me. Really was one of the most major mile stones in my life. What it felt like to achieve that.
By the time I finished reading I had realised that I can't stop, I can't give in and go back to how I was, even if I continue to do terribly I have to carry on for all the same reasons I decided to do it in the first place.
If you've never read that first post here's the link http://yorkshirepud-runfatgirlrun.blogspot.com/2008/07/story-so-far.html
I really can't carry on like I have been doing though. That is no way to live life. I am going to continue to exercise when this is over though not to the same extent. Maybe an hour a day or something. i am going to continue to have a healthy diet and as long as I'm doing that and know I'm living a healthy lifestyle then I'm not going to stress about it.
If I live like that and never lose another pound well then I never lose another pound. I am what I am and wasting my life getting upset and stressing about it won't help.

Wow. That's a great attitude to have, and quite right too. It takes time to come to a realisation like that, and it's something you can only do by yourself, so proud of you for realising that.
You are ace as you are, and just maintaining a good diet and certain amount of exercise will help you stay healthy, and happy, just as you are, without you beating yourself up.
Woohoo for you.
GNR next year though, still yes? For fun, not because we *have* to?
