  • Psych medicine.. Gained weight rapidly. Monitored by Dr. Now it is slowly coming off.

    Happened to me too. I gained 120 lbs in 5 months and I probably normally would have cared but the meds took that away for some reason.

    Cleaning everything out of my life that was toxic. Family went first... was the hardest to break and the reason I'm so screwed up and have major issues with food (Dad would call me fat and thunder thighs... I'm 6'2 and was 170 lbs at the time pure muscle as I swam 6 days a week 5-8 hours a day due to being on a water polo team and two swim teams)... Next went the job where i just stuffed my face for 12 hours and ate out for EVERY single meal as well as two starbucks runs a day.... now I'm at a good job, assists with school tuition, great hours, less stress... better people

    And now it's finally my turn to cut the toxic stuff out of me. Weight, poor perception of myself, low self esteem...

    Wow! Bet your back story would be an eye opener for many! Family can be the best of the supporters or the worst of enemies!
