Post ok, now what?


Hi all,

Just a quick note. I went to the doctor's today and they weighed me. I weigh more now than I have in a long time and I hate it. None of my clothes fit anymore. All of my family is absolutely elated because I have gained. They are paying me for every pound I gain!!!?!!! I feel like I have lost control over everything. I'm miserable. I feel and look like a pig. I hate this!!!!!! I don't think I can do this anymore.

Lil

(((((((((((Lil))))))))))

I'm right there with you! I recently gained 30 pounds and I haven't weighted this much in a year, but I realize I need to! My 'skinny' clothes no longer fit, and you know what? I went and bought a whole new wardrobe. It's depressing to put on clothes that are way to small. Ideally it would be good to give away those clothes, but if you're not at that point (I'm not) then put them in the back of your closet. Gaining weight is one of the hardest things to do, but maintaining at a weight you're not yet comfortable is even harder! I know how hard it is...because I'm doing the same thing, but you know what? After a while it gets easier, you get more comfortable/use to how you look and it gets better. The first months are rough, but try to stick it out. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

p.s. I'm not sure, but if you're not currently seeing a nutritionist, it might be helpful at this point...it was for me.

Hi hon!

Carlie's right, the first months ARE the toughest! Stick with it, I'm sure you look beautiful. Remember that mirrors lie.

And I know you feel out of control, but you are helping yourself. And you're making progress, which is, a good thing. And in the long run, i'm sure you'll realize this!

Good luck!

NEVER GIVE UP
