It's funny how little things can make you feel a bit chuffed about achieving a bit of weight loss.
One of my colleagues was handing around some sort of chocolate bars or similar in the office and when I was asked I replied, in an highly theatrical over-acted voice, "Oh no, I couldn't possibly - I'm watching my lovely slim figure!".
Another colleague grinned, so I turned on him, mainly in jest, and said "And you can stop that laughing too - I've lost 9 kgs in the last few weeks."
He was actualy quite surprised and full of praise for my achievement.
And you know I felt, well, just a tad smug about it.
