,
I am basically new here also...found this site by accident and glad I did.
As mother's and wives...I think we all put ourselves on the back burner and don't realize it.
I was always "the thin one", until one day I woke up and realized my legs "jiggle" and my tummy "wiggles" and I don't like it. I get the "I love you the way you are" which is wonderfull, but I don't "love me" the way I am. So here I am,
I have the same "draining" mother....there are morning's where I just look at that phone rininging, thinking "do I really want to hear it today?" just the same love her dearly and thankfull that she's here, but Lord give me a day w/out her complaining.
Together we will be the "skinny" ones again
I am NEW here, and I am EXCITED about it!
Hello, everyone my name is Terri and I live in Texas. I am married with children and I have really put myself on the back burner for several years now. I am 5'7 and weigh 295 lbs, I use to teeter between 137-146. I thought I was FAT then, lol, I am sure many of you have been there. NOW, I realize that I can't tie my shoes without almost passing out. I am no stranger to diets, I have done it my whole life, but for some reason I quit making MYSELF a priority. I have gotten lost in the identity of my children and my husband (he runs a business) and somehow I got lost along the way, I use to try and hold out to fit back into my size 7 jeans, now I would WELCOME a size 16! I am here because I have found that skinny women who have never ventured to fatland really DON'T UNDERSTAND, although many are well meaning, it helps to know people who have actually been there, or are there, like I am. I am a pisces, so I am emotional and dramatic sometimes, a real sentimental dreamer type. But when I get started I feel passionate about things and can turn into a real shark and go after it. I just need a huge push...I do great with Virgo's and Libra's both natural born leaders, and I enjoy the social aspects of Aries and Sagitarius. I generally am most comfortable putting others BEFORE me and that it where I need to gain strength and encouragement. My mother is emotionally draining, she drains me like a battery, but I love her. I need help with the emotional issues that cause me to stuff my face to hide the pain. Hello to everyone and I am gonna be here everyday while going through this...
