I've never been more than 15 pounds overweight (except related to pregnancies), yet I constantly fear that if I don't commune with the scale every day, that the small amount of extra weight I'm carrying is going to multiply overnight. Nevermind that I've stayed within a 5 pound range for 4 years now just through normal eating and exercising.MCM Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10588793352268224508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732829991335734426.post-64415195440698915242012-01-10T08:45:33.898-05:002012-01-10T08:45:33.898-05:00I agree.

I lost over 70 pounds and there is always that fear of gaining it back and losing what I worked so hard for. It is not so much that I did not feel beautiful when I was bigger, but it is the fact that I worked hard to become healthier. So I get it completely. You are bada**!!

I am also terrified of gaining the weight... like, if I close my eyes for too long I will wake up and be fat again.<br /><br />In my case, I never did think I was beautiful when I was bigger. Now I have a better perspective on things and I can see that there's more to it than the number on the scale or the body fat I am/was carrying around... but when I was overweight, it defined me. That is why I had to change and refuse to go back.Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230997094889375925noreply@blogger.com
