15 weeks into dieting and for the first time since

I have had chocolate again. Thank you hunts.
Hunt's snack pack fat free chocolate pudding 3.5 oz cups are the yummiest and only 90 calories and no fat, did I mention No fat.
I have also decided to limit my normal days calories down to 1000 - 1200 calories, so I can maintain my weight using those ever so tempting special meals when I get down to 9 stone 6pounds.

15 weeks of dieting

What a roller coaster ride of thoughts, emotions, highs higher than I would have ever thought and lows - feeling like I am starving. I feel like I am weaning myself off a drug that I will not be allowed to ever go cold turkey, with temptation everywhere. I have to train my body to feel full on a maintenance plan after I have lost these last 5 pounds. I am hoping it won't stay an eternal up hill battle.

Weigh in 137 pounds or 9stone 11 pounds

I'm still loosing weight which is great :-) expecting to only loose 1 pound every 2 weeks now, we will see how I go.
When I get down to 9stone 6pounds I would have lost 50 pounds.
Sometimes I find it hard to believe, and sometimes I still feel fat but my clothes say other wise.
I feel a lot healthier, I am not getting reflux at all, I still have to get used to people looking at me, when you are bigger people don't notice you at all (unless you are very obese, and I was not).
Getting closer to that before and after photo I promised, and I will keep to it.
It is getting harder to stick to the diet, I have to remind myself theres not much longer, not much more to loose then I can go on my maintenance diet/ healthy living.
