Hi,
My name is Lissa I'm a 33 stay at home Mom, I have 3 girls and 2 fur babies. I have always been thin and under weight however I had a hysterectomy a year ago and can't seem to shed the weight it has caused me to gain. I hate my self image and have gone from eating everything and anything to eating very light and very conciously. I have a protein shake in the morning and one for lunch in the evening I eat a light supper or have a protein bar, snacks include yogurt and fruits. This coming from drinking a 6 pack of mountain dew a day and eating a pack of reese's is a huge change for me but it seems since the surgery my body just doesn't except it anymore. The big problem I am having is that changing my eating habits haven't done a thing for my weight it seems to be going up and not down. I weighed in at 210 a month ago and am now weighing 220.
My boyfriend is so tired of hearing me put myself down that it feels like he can't stand to be near me he gets upset and tells me he loves me no matter my size but the problem is I don't love me.
So I'm hoping that I can meet some new friends here and improve my image of myself along with the image in the mirror.
Bet Wishes to All
