So I have put on weight again and am 3 pounds away from my heaviest weight. While on a 2 week holiday abroad THREE different people asked if I was expecting. I mean I'm only a size 10-12 uk (6-8 in US). And to top it off the mother in law told me I look "healthy". Yeah thanks for that.

Well enough is enough. I'm fed up trying to hide my pot/pregnant looking belly. So my aim is to lose 14 pounds (to start with) slowly so I can re learn how to eat like a normal healthy human being. I am looking for active friends for motivation, encouragement and accountability. Feel free to add me. I hope you do :)

    Omg girl I had a similar experience except I shared my wedding photos! My cousin asked me if it was a baby bump! No, no it’s not but thanks for pointing that out!

    That’s awful, people should never assume that weight equals preganant! It’s very rude when your wrong, this has happened to me in several occasions.. I’ve added you and Btw I think you look great in your photo !

    I know why would you risk upsetting someone like that?? It must also be embarrassing for the person who asked so don't ask. And thank you chocolatexxmintt :) you look stunning in yours

    *Never* a good question. It reflects on the speaker. But good for you for taking it as incentive to work on your health!
