I used to weigh 120 pounds…now I weigh 200 pounds…I gained all that weight in less than a year…My fiance had just recently come into money and I guess you could say “we lived the good life”…since then I’ve had nothing but hate for myself.. I take forever to get ready because none of my clothes fit me and I hate to look at myself…now it’s constantly the center of my fiance and I’s arguments..he just doesn’t seem to understand my pain…I used to get comments like of your pregnant? And oh wow why didn’t you say anything(about being pregnant)…and I wasn’t…the sad part is, is that they weren’t being mean they were serious….My self hate has driven me to do things I’ve never even thought of doing….I just don’t know what to do…

I’m in a similar boat, I used to 180 lbs of solid muscle and had to let myself go because I was taking a very difficult degree, now I’m 210 lbs, but I look completely different.
It’s not easy to lose the weight-but if you’re serious and determined to do it, you can. The body is like a machine and it will do whatever you want. But trust me, I know how hard it is to change one’s lifestyle and get fit again. I’ve been this way since university, more than 10 years now, just trying to get my life on track.
That’s one major reason I’m here…I really don’t feel that motivated anymore. Though I recently felt inspired to lose weight, I’d rather just die. It’s not about being fat, I know I can do it-I’ve done it before (get fit). But I just feel my life has no purpose. I used to be very well regarded in my circles-but I’m longer ‘special.’
Anyways-my advice, if you’re not as suicidal as I am, is to just diet, hit the gym and I guarantee in 6-12 mths you’ll get fit. Anyone can do it, I’ve seen some incredible turnaround stories with people in my life. It seems you have a lot more to live for than I do. If I was rich, I don’t think I’d be as upset about my life and could probably feel motivated to change. At this time I have nothing to strive for…I’m in my 40s and not doing too well in life.
