What a great day.

Now have a landline with Wi Fi so no further daily visits to Starbucks and pulling my hair out through rubbish mobile internet, plus a bed frame which has had to be genetically engineered to fit round the bend in the stairs. No more sleeping on a mattress on the floor yay!!!!

Also bought another pair of size 16 jeans today, bearing in mind that 7 months ago they would have to have been size 24!

I am sooooo smiling!

Love how super positive you are thats great!! Celebrate the achievements no matter how small, well done on the smaller jeans ive just bought size 20 after being a 24 for years so been pretty positive too, great to see that someone has lasted longer and still going strong :-)

Thank you for your very kind comments. Still have a little way to go yet but have always been very positive as I have wanted this so badly. All because I wanted to fit into a lovely blouse lol! I just love it, not having to shop in the outsize departments.
