I have been on diets since I was a teen, not a day too early in the eyes of my parents, my self-image never got a chance to grow.
I was determined to lose weight for my 40th, going to slimming groups and it worked.
The counting, competing and weighing got to me and I went back to my comfort.
A slightly too big glass of wine at night.
Very quickly there was just a new sensation, a calmness when it came to eating. I am only using food for fuel now. I'm not on a diet, watching calories or what I eat. Weight has just fallen off me.
Even more bizarrely, I caught myself looking into the mirror when I got dressed.
I noticed there was no disgust, no harshness in my look.
I like ME
I need no scale to tell me that I am good enough now.
The strange thing is Simone and I never once spoke about food or weight.
