I am fat, in the morbidly obese way. I binge eat, mostly on chocolate or sweet things, though I have been known to do savoury foods.
I come from a fat family, though my sister lost all her weight when she went to uni.
My husband is overweight (I don't consider him to be at a dangerous level) as are his parents and siblings (all boys and built like brick sh*t houses).
It seems that all of them have decided to diet at the exact same time (I kid you not)
DH has lost a stone in a month doing the fasting diet, and I am proud of him. He was unhappy he did something about it, though I like him being a 'bigger' man, I support him in his choices.
DM & DS have both lost well over a stone using weight watchers, and now my dad has joined in.
DH's brothers have taken up cycling and are doing well on it.
NOW I know I need to lose weight, not only to be healthy, but because I am feeling rubbish about myself. Which hasn't happened before, despite being fat I've always felt comfortable in the skin I am in. Though that has changed and I don't know if it is because DD is fairly new (8Months) or because I'm beginning to realise that I am with DH for life and no other man will look at me (though why they would want to is beyond me)
So there is a big part of me that wants to, but with everyone round me going 'YES YES, YOU SHOULD DO IT" I seem to be digging my heels in and going 'Nopey nope nope.' Even my MIL seems to have joined in.
Someone tell me to shut up and get one with it please.
