    The first time was gradual, I didn't even notice. I barely ate through high school but my husband was dead-set on feeding me and never batted an eye as I grew. The second time was a lot of emotional binge eating. I'm determined to stay on track this time... *fingers crossed* it sticks.

    Pregnancy took me from 120 to 140. After that it was "well, I'm already fat, who cares" and I put on 10-15 a year for the next 6 years. I maintained for a long time, and now I'm losing.

    I was big as a child, not that what I ate was bad, just way too much (both parents were big too). I lost it in college, working out 2-3hrs a day 5 days a week and then started to gain about 2 years later. Packed on the pounds after my first miscarriage and each of the 5 after that added more. (Lots of comfort foods and zero exercise). I started back to the gym and lost some but had to stop when my husband broke his leg and had major complications... cue regain. I also have PCOS which doesn't help, but inactivity and eating don't either.

    Lots of tasty processed food. Chips, cake, doughnuts galore! Oh so good.
