Hello all,
I am a Mother of five children (2-8yrs). I have been in the Military for almost 12 years. I have struggled with my weight the whole time from day one when I almost didn't make the weight to join the Military in the first place. I started gaining weight as soon as a left basic training and the pace of exercise reduced dramatically. I gained 30lbs by the time I found out I was pregnant with my first child; I gained 100lbs with my first pregnancy. In the Air Force they give you 6 months to lose the weight before you have to take a physical assessment test... if you fail they will start to do negative paperwork against and if you fail to pass they will eventually kick you out. Well, I have successfully yo-yoed enough with-in the last 12 years to pass my PT tests, however, I have not been able to get back down to my previous Military weight which started to pile on in the first place. I was always thin (athletic build) in school do to the heavy workouts I did on a regular basis.
I'm here because I need to lose another 40lbs and I'm sick of the binging and the stress and the depression of it all. I read one women's post about almost feeling possessed or in a trance when she overate... that's exactly how I feel.... I just want to listen to the inspiration from others and be able to relate to someone else who struggles with the same demons I do. I'm tired of being this way and I want to reach my goals... I need help...
