I love this post!!! I swear this is my life in a nut shell right now.. Yeah, after years of yo yo dieting, losing 50-75 lbs and then gaining it all back again and again and now having a metabolism that barely crawls so no matter WHAT I DO the weight doesn't come off.. Please tell me again how if I just "eat right" the weight will come off.. ahem... Well would you like to see the past five years of food logs I have since I've weighed and measured every damn thing I've put in my mouth for that length of time?
I get that people are trying to be nice and not point out that I'm large, but seriously don't try to talk to me out of the one thing that is going to save my life and the one things that's going to work. I'm 5'2 and 256 lbs.. I'm 126 lbs overweight and on a short frame that HURTS..
plus I have sleep apnea, and high blood pressure and I'm pre -diabetic.
And I get it all.. The "you're not that big"...:you carry it so well".. and my FAVORITE.. "I know someone who had that and then died!! aren't you scared?" Well I wasn't until that so thank you for that...
Thanks for letting me get that out!
