You've done fantastically well so far and are already very lean so if you keep it going a little while longer it will be worth it.<BR/>As for why we do the things we do to ourselves - my opinion is that our minds and bodies fight us when we get really lean and I think some bodies want to fight harder than others to hang on to the little bit of fat left. Hormonal changes and the bodies starvation defence mechanisms (yes we are starving ourselves) work in funny ways & often in the mind. So a once normal person has these weird mood swings and weird compulsions that just seem to take over. Being a smart and organised person makes it even harder as you think "why can't I control this?". But it is so so hard. My point is you are absolutely not alone with your experiences. You just have to fight yourself a little while longer and you will be ecstatic with your achievements.

You know that if you do everything you should, the results will be wonderful. In my mind, you've already a winner to have come so far!Claudinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08541397223213825778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36061191.post-89551889156526813632007-09-11T19:43:00.000+09:302007-09-11T19:43:00.000+09:30Hi Magda, take another look at the photo you poste...Hi Magda, take another look at the photo you posted the other day. You are not fat and flabby! I can understand the fed-up part, but there's not long to go now. The first show was the worst for me - I think not knowing what to expect and not understanding how your mind and body works when it comes to dieting just adds extra stress. It will get easier. Hang in there.

Some of us have this fear and can't get over it. <BR/><BR/>You have worked your little toosh off for the last 9 months hang in there, you are in the final quarter. Your happy place is probably in hiding due to your calorie intake decreasing, this affects our minds. <BR/><BR/>Speak to others who have been down this same road and learn from them. Arm yourself with knowledge, know what to expect so you can tackle it.<BR/><BR/>You are doing great and will continue to do great because you are strong, determined and able.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there Magda.<BR/>xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
