Re: Greenfields. 10 Kilos? That's good.
The trouble is not losing it, it's not putting it on again afterwards.
Well should you ever head in this direction please get in touch with me.

10 Kilos? That's good.
I had lost 8, but gained 4 back, as I was a bad girl and not checking myself. However I am trying to be good again. Let's see. I like the idea of heading upto Copenhagen. I am so TIRED of the heat in Delhi......

Re: female tourists
Very few of us women look our best in shorts and bikino tops. I agree with you it shows cultural insensitivity to dress like that in a Muslim country.

I wonder about the mirrors too. Unfortunately here in Didim, many female tourists think fit to walk along town in the tiniest of shorts and a bikini top. I won't even go into how offensive that is in a Muslim country, but only commnt from a purely aestetic view point. The fatter they are, the more they let hang out and I think they either don't have a mirror at all or it's one of these funny ones which distort. As for the weight problem: I'm constantly on a diet so as not to gain a gram, so I don't have a problem because "starvation" has become second nature.

Mirror comments.
Thanks for the comments. At present I'm winning, but past experience tells me that complacency is a big, big mistake. Now to visit your blogs and see what you have been doing.

For some reason I've recently developed a craving for celery.
And I'm all out of it. Since there's a rumor that it takes 5 more calories to eat a stalk of celery than it contains, it's no doubt useful for those of us who lie to ourselves about what the mirror says. Now, if I can just get past the snack foods aisle with my veggies...

Congrats! 10 kg? That's 22 lbs!!! I'm trying to lose 15 lbs, and I'm having a hell of a time doing it! And my mirror
doesn't lie to me, unfortunately...

That's great Betty; congratulations! It's sometimes nice to be in denial, and the mirror shows the truth--I try not to look too carefully when my face is sun burnt!! Have a good week! Nita.

Congratulations on the weight loss! I have to be mindful of my weight for I fall between five and ten pound over my ideal weight! Shelly

I don't believe a darned thing the mirror tells me anyway. It can't see inside. But it IS fun to be able to say "Congratulations on your loss!", lol.

Elinjo - Great to know you have lost 10kg..hope you keep shedding more and reach the target you aspire. It's true about how blind one can be about their own weight problem. Have a lovely day Elinjo and take care.
