Here's my story...
I weighed 130-135 for years-high school and for 3 years out of high school. I moved to a new state and put on 60 lbs. How? I don't really know. I never ate all that well, was no less active here then I was there. I just started putting it on and I didn't even realize it for a long time. I never weighed myself much and the first time I stepped on a scale out here and realized I'd out on series weight I about died. I was depressed, I drank A LOT, I ate out quite a bit. But I lived on Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and Hamburger Helper, and pasta before-so why did it matter so much now. I did stop going to the gym, but I only went a couple/three days a week land although I worked out pretty good,I wasn't killing myself. I dropped about 15 lbs a year ago and had kept it off for awhile. THen it started coming back. Now I'm in "fitness" mode. I've cleaned up diet by 110% and I'm starting to work out again. I'm on Clen and Thermo something or other. I do cardio 3/4 days a week, but haven't started lifting yet. I dropped 10 lbs in my first 2 weeks-pretty encouraging although probably wasn't losing any real weight. Now I'm not losing any thing numbers wise, but my clothes are still getting bigger. (That's good) But I get so discouraged sooooo easily. I look around and see all the thin people and get so upset that I look the way I do. And I don't look all that bad. I'm a little thick, but to look at me, you wouldn't say "She's fucking fat." But it's really hard, even though I am focused and driven.
My point is this...it's way easier to gain it then it is to take it off. Give us thick people who are really trying some slack
