"You're so skinny"...

I appreciate it, but it's not a helpful thing for me to hear right now.

So, my fiance now is saying that I'm skinny enough and should stop losing weight. He's been telling me that all day now. I do look pretty slender in the outfit I'm wearing, and were it not for those few problem areas that remain, I'd agree. My upper body is fine. I wouldn't mind a little more collar bone, but I don't like the bony upper body look. I also wouldn't mind a little more cheek bones in my face. In pants, my thighs and butt look okay, but while I'm at it, while I'm losing weight, I want to get to where I'm happy with every part of my body, where I feel like I can wear anything without worrying that it will show this or that, where I even feel like I could wear a bathing suit. I want to finish this.

It's hard not to be tempted to cheat though when someone keeps telling me that I need to stop losing weight and that I'm really skinny now. ::: sigh ::: I walk by so many things I'd like to eat on my way home from work every day... I'm sure that if my fiance saw me on the street and didn't know me, he wouldn't notice me either way.

I'm close, I know that. But I'm definitely not there yet. I think everyone who loses a lot of weight experiences the same thing. As they get close to their goal and at the same time are getting tired of dieting and feeling tempted to cheat, people around them insist that it's enough and that they need to stop losing.
