I was in a very dark place a few months back. A number of people PM'd be, concerned about my welfare. I couldn't bring myself to dress because I felt so fat, and looked awful.

I'm pleased to say that I had a free morning as my wife had gone into her workplace for only the second time in 18 months, and my daughter was at nursery.

I went with full presentation - brushed out my matted wig (it's been stuffed away for most of the last 2 months), makeup looked great, shapewear fitted nicely, and I had smart "workplace" attire on.

No pics, as this isn't the photo gallery thread, and I only did a thread in there 3-4 days back, so looks like you'll have to wait!

Overall though I just want to say thanks to those who have checked in on me, given me positive vibes, or given me stern words where required. I'm definitely feeling better today.
