We talk a lot on this forum about making lifestyle changes that make us healthier and that weight loss is just a part of the process.  It is also very realistic to know that the world responds differently to skinny people than it does to fat people.  I think wrapping my mind around the fact that I was judged harshly because I was overweight took some getting used to.  I'm pretty much the same person, just size 8 not jammed into a 16.

To steal a slogan, take it one day at a time and be aware of the fact that other things will change besides your size.

I have already lost 6 pounds in the first week... having some headaches but I think its because of the drastic no sugar thing.. i really was addicted big time! Better today and worth it ... lost more energy and hope. I think I am ready to be a thin girl and not hide behind the Fat Coat anymore.  The stories here are so inspiring and I am so greatfull to get to hang and move in the direction of "happy with my body".

Thats fantastic SherriePie!  I'm new to the forum and very new to FTS, I just read the book today and can't wait to get started.  You are an absolute inspiration and I hope I can be as successful as you....I no longer want to hide away in the summer embarrassed by my body.  It's my time to shine and stories like yours truly inspire me. Thankyou x
