I have always had an issue with my weight. When I got out of high school and dropped about 15 pounds, was about average size 10-12, the lightlest I've ever been since my freshman year, I still wasn't happy, I felt fat and overweight. My mom was always bugging my sister and I about our weight throughout high school. We were both about the same size 14. My mom is heavy and I think she just didn't want us to be that way. Well after I dropped out of college and moved in with my boyfriend at the time, later husband, I put on about 80 pounds and I didn't even seem to notice it until I had gained it all. Then it bugged me a lot. I never had the motivation to exercise though or eat healthier. Since I split from my ex and have gone through the divorce process I've lost about 12 pounds and I'm exercising and eating better. I'm feeling a lot better about myself even though I haven't lost all the weight yet, but my confidence is returning. I would be happy to be back a size 10. I'm just hoping once I get there I'm not still plagued with feeling of being fat. And I haven't even had a kid yet. Reading everyones stories on how their bodies change, I hope that I can deal with it when it happens to me.
