I think I’m getting better :)

I’m starting to gain weight! I know that so many females (and some males) would dread this, but I can’t tell you how happy it makes me!

Before my life took a turn for the worse, I use to eat like a pig. I’d have up to 5th servings for everything and just seem to not stop eating. I’d exercise most of it off, but I was still large for my age. During the time when my depression was at it’s highest, I basically stopped eating and started trying to exercise a lot. As a result, I lost nearly half my body weight. Even as I started getting emotionally better and started eating normally (not as much as before, but still more than the average person should) and stopped exercising as much, I just seem to lose more and more weight.  It got to the point where I thought I was going to end up underweight and anorexic and as a result, couldn’t stand to even look at a scale.

But tonight something changed. I stepped on the scale and it said that I was 60 kilos (4 kilos more than last time I weighed myself). It may not seem like much, but it means so much to me. I know that I now need to keep a balance so I can eat healthy and neither gain nor lose too much weight, but I honestly think it is a step forward into getting my life back on track and finding myself again.

A very thrilled CPC 🙂
