*curls up*

I've gained weight again... I don't get it. I'm not doing anything I haven't been doing for the past 2 years. On the contrary, I've even been doing more sports. And yet I keep gaining weight. I can't stop it. Is it the new pills they put me on? I don't know what to do T_T. I don't want to gain weight... I want to lose it... And I can't be "just happy" with my weight and the way I look. I just can't. It makes me sick and hate myself when I look at myself in the mirror. I want to go back to the weight I had long before I ever took that goddamn pill for the first time T_T.

*cuddles*

wah - i know how you feel babe.

but i have no good excuse. well i guess there's the fact that i've not been able to exercise due to the appendicectomy, and being at home all day just made me eat...

but wah! i need to just eat less.

we should do some kind of thing to make each other lose weight.

Some pills can slow your metabolism ^^;

I hope you're aware that if you've been doing more sports it could as well be it's muscle weight you've gained, not fat... I know from own experience that sports can make you gain weight. Wouldn't be BAD weight in that case though.

*hugs*

I know how you feel. I know exactly how you feel, and it sucks. I'm sure you're beautiful no matter what size you are, but it still sucks.

*hugs again*

I know how you feel. Everybody thinks they're fat at one point or another and you know, a little fat isn't that bad. And it could be muscle as well so don't worry. Just mellow out and when you look at yourself in the mirror the next time, don't concentrate on the tiny flaws but rather the good things.

Ahhh

Maybe you have gained muscle? or the pills, but trust me, it'll go away, & at least you don't have my problem >< Weighing as much as i do is a pain in the ass trust me.. *hugs* don't worry about it too much

OK. So, you were on the pill, off the pills for a couple of years and then you´re back on the pill again. Can´t it just be that your body needs to get used to it again?

(And, btw, don´t get off it because of this, because that will put you in trouble!)
Are you drinking a lot? Maybe you just have a low metabolism?

The best advice I can give you is to learn to love and worship your body. Look at it in the mirror, touch it, decorate it etc.

But, since you´re not going to listen to that, I´ll give my second best advice which is to joing the Weight Watchers or buy their interactive CD-ROM and get on the programme, because A) then you´ll have some sort of control over your calorie intake and output. and B) they have lists over how many calories and points every item is. It sure surprised me to learn that certain things were dangerous.

I'm afraid the Weightwatchers are too expensive for me... besides, I don't want to go to group meetings and stuff... >_<

I just can't bring myself to love my body... I just want to weigh less...

What traps are there? And why is drinking bad? I usually have a beer or a glass of wine in the evening when I'm home. Is that bad? ó.ò

*cries*

All I can say is Malin doesn´t go to meetings, she has a Selh study CDROM where you type in what you eat everyday and how much you´ve worked out and then it calculates how many points you have left to use that day and if you want to save them for the weekend you can. It´s just like doing your budgets, but it´s with points instead if your money. It cost 1000 SEK when she bought it and it has all the information about food products, how many points each one holds. You get a number of Points to use every day based on weight, gender etc.

And I don´t know how much you weigh but Malin weighs 130 kilograms and she is the most beautiful woman in the world. sexiness is all up here *taps temple*

Hm... that DVD sounds good... *whines a bit* But 99 EUR is a lot of money... x_x

*hugs* I really appreciate you writing this down anyway. *snugs*

Now I really worry about the beer though...

Re: *cries*

It´s not bad per say, but it´s not water either. A glass of beer or wine is about the equivalent of a choclate bar. It´s all about planning ahead, take a brisk walk and eat healthy all day and save up points then you can get drunk!

And don´t forget: Three meals a day and eight tall glasses of water every day.
