Im gonna tell you what im like exactly

hi,
ive been on here for 2 weeks now, ive gained half a stone, ive been exercising my butt off! i no i wont see a huge change right away i no there is no quick fix but ive decided to let everyone no exactly who i am what im like and what isnt appropriate to say to me which will only make me mad n end up gettin in trouble.

im touchy about my weight, i no im a fat i no im over weight i get that all day every day off my mum but at least i am trying to change where as some people i no just moan about how big they are and eat 6 hotdogs for lunch with a family sized cheesecake afterwards, i dont eat that way i like feeling full but not ill n i eat healthy.

im very private certain things are just not right to say i hate my body i hate how ugly i look, and i have been the Drs over Thyroid problems as i gained weight quickly, yet for some reason it aint that making me gain weight its my fault.

i act confident but im not, i have 0 confidence and 0 happiness right now as i am overwieght.

im pretty easy going i like to have a laugh n a joke but i dont take it too far.

i like meeting new people and ive had great support on here but seems like just one person wants to make me feel miserable i wont stand for it, i have been walked all over all my life im not gonna keep my mouth shut ill tel u straight if you cross a line with me just so people no.

other than that nothing really winds me up, i dont want to be molycoddled or anything just some encouragement is nice not being told flat its all your fault. i like being nice being a ***** is not me but i dont care for nastyness and i wont take it.

im in a bad place right now but i want to lose weight for me no-one else and i will keep doing my best.

    YOU ARE TRYING to make changes to improve your life and happiness - be proud of that, its the first step to living your life the way YOU want to live!!

    Add me as a friend.

    I come from a family of obese/overweight everyone... I'm the odd one out and they point it out constantly and try to find other ways to attempt to belittle me. It doesn't work bc I have all the confidence in the world, but it still sucks. I know what you mean about the 6 hotdogs and cheesecake - that was how I grew up.

    We're here to support, encourage and share this journey together. I'm sarcastic but I'm usually just joking.. I'd never go out of my way to hurt anyone.

    Your mother has issues. You are her CHILD she should NOT speak to you that way, period. That's me being a mother. I have three daughters and I would never speak to either of them that way. Now, me as a person - my mother is the one person that has been the rudest, nastiest person in my life. My mother has her own set of issues. The most annoying that she competes with me and is jealous of me. Its sick. I moved far away from her but recently she came to visit and we walked to the store.. a guy in a car beeped and yelled something. I ignore that kind of thing, I'm married and to be honest guys yelling out of cars does nothing for me... so my mother looked at me and said "he must've been yelling at you." And then a few more times, while we were together she got mad if guys would hit on me, rather than her. Its gross. It gets worse. My husband and I went out to see a movie and when we returned, before walking into the house I could hear her talking to my brother (who had also come to visit) inside my house. Not knowing we could hear them, I heard everything they said. Which included my mother telling my brother how she tried on my clothes in my closet and how I must not take care of my kids if I can go to the gym, etc. Just a lot of nasty things I'm not posting on here. But you get the idea. I didn't address it, she was leaving the following day anyway. Last week on FaceBook I seen a conversation she was having with my aunt telling her how I "think I'm better than her" and how she's so much better looking, skinnier, etc. (which isnt true) So - I can completely relate to the eff'd up mother.

    On another note.. yes, a size 14 is on the big side but it isn't record breaking. You can perfectly lose the weight and be half that size if you get your mind right, exercise and eat correctly. Plenty of people on here have done it starting out at even BIGGER sizes than a 14 and would be glad to help you. If you need encouragment, I have a blog that documents the weight I gained with pregnancy and then the weight I lost - in pictures. I was 209lbs, if I can do it... so can you.

    I've heard the whole "I sacraficed my life FOR YOU" speech since I was a toddler... didn't stop my mother from always putting herself first... like my first day of school - dropping me off down the street so she would make it to her boyfriend's house before the traffic came. Her boyfriend who she was cheating on my father with back at the time. Yep, I was always second to the boyfriends, etc. I completely get it. See... we'll be good friends, not only can we support eachother with weightloss, but also having mothers that say the darnest things haha.

    It took me a long time to know that my mother's problems were not my fault nor my responsibility. I'm 26. I've felt guilty for 24 of them years, now I know better. So big ((((hugs)))) to you and know that nomatter what kind of family you come from you can be whatever person you are inside. And I think I see a very confident, skinny hott girl just anxious to come out :)

    Absolutely nothing but support here. I have 3 kids, my daughters are thin but my son is overweight at 21. He will lose weight when HE is ready. I tell them I love them all the time, and that I am here for them whatever they need.

    MFP friends are here for YOU whatever you need. Do this for you, so that YOU can feel in control of your health and appearance.

    Good luck!
