So i'm 25 and never in my life would I have thought I would be struggling with m weight. I spent most of my years less than 120lbs. (This was also because I was crazy about what I ate and put into my body and going to the gym religiously for hours.) The funny part is that at that time I had zero self esteem and hated everything about myself. About two years ago I decided I wanted to be happier and let go of all that. I was so comfortable with myself and so much happier not obsessing about food and burning calories. I put on 10 pounds here and 10 pounds there but I thought it was ok. I didn't notice until my family started making comments and my boyfriend would constantly ask me to go to the gym. When I realized that my jean size was now a double digit and I looked at some recent photos I was in shock, shocked at how I could end up almost 170lbs. I started the South Beach Diet which I like, (but I'm not going to lie I have fallen off a few times) and I'm making an effort to get to the gym. I dropped 10 pounds and I feel better but its definately a battle...I guess I'm here because I need to see that other people have the same issues with food and body image as I do.
