How stupid is that? I've lost over 13 stone and I feel fat!!! Now, don't get me wrong, I can look in the mirror and see that I have lost loads and loads of weight and compared to how I looked 2 years ago I look great but I still look fat.
I've been feeling this way for a few weeks now and I think it is because I am more aware of my weight now. At 25 and a half stone I had lost all self respect and did not care what I looked like or what people thought of me but now I do. It is not helped that people keep saying to me "You look great" or "You don't need to lose anymore weight" or "you are not fat" or "don't go over the top" etc. Ok I know I can look great when I make an effort but I do need to lose more weight, I am still fat and I'll never go OTT!!!
I think I am also feeling this way because I know I have gained weight over Christmas and New Year and although I am now firmly back on the wagon I know how easy it would be to go back to old ways and I don't want to do that EVER, none of you reading this can ever let me do and nor can I. I hate that feeling.
So maybe feeling fat is a good thing because it keeps me in check and back on the wagon. I will beat this, I will I will I will!!!

Hey Vik, I got your blog link from the WW 5+ board and just wanted to say hi, I am reading!
I really hope your fat feeling goes away soon, I'm sure we all feel like that from time to time and I hope it passes soon. You are an inspiration to so many of us on 5+, I think you're fab!
I think it’s only natural to be more concerned with your weight now in regards to all the weight lost but don’t please think of feeling fat, keep reminding yourself that once you was really fat to the point it hindered your health and you have achieved so much to lose what you have…
You have done great Vik. Keep up the work. Everyone has fat days even those who are size 6. The difference between success and failture is reckonising the signs that your slipping and getting back on the wagon and you have done that. Everyone gains over xmas and new year after all we are all human. Just keep yup the work. Your goal weight is in is sight now. Your an inspiration to all.:) anna aka hypa2004 on 5+boards
