People are noticing now!

I've been on holiday since June 4 (don't hate me!) because I teach in an international school in Singapore.
Last August I was 138kg.
On January 29 I was 133kg.
When school ended on June 4 I was 117.4kg.
Today we're back at school for the first day and I'm 112.8.
The reactions of all the returning teachers has been overwhelming! I think that some didn't take too much notice of my losses while they were with me every day, but after being away for so long, they are all greeting me with dropped jaws and exclamations of how much weight I've lost.  A common comment is, "Gosh you must feel so much better!" I think my big grin tells them the answer.
I'm doing this for me, and I have a long way to go, but all the positive responses today have been very welcome.

  6. I hadn't thought about changing my browser. I use google chrome...so now trying explorer...does it work? Post comment button is waiting!!!
    Aren't the compliments amazing when you get them?! And when you get them because YOU did it...it is great!

    Thanks for your reply on my post...I will look into that on the fructose...maybe I do need to cut out more sugars...i have started eating more fruit, before i didn't eat enough, so maybe that is impacting? Water is certainly something I need to increase, and the past 3 days have really upped it.
    I will look into what other changes I can make!

    Big thanks! :)
