Have you ever lost weight only to gain it back and then some? I think all of us have had this experience. I have done it many times. I think the following quote says it all.
Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life. ~Phillip C. McGraw, The Ultimate Weight Solution: The 7 Keys to Weight Loss Freedom, 2003

it's funny how someone can think it can make a relationship better like maybe if i were skinnier he'd like me more. yeah, i will cop to that. i did lose the weight, but i also got rid of the boyfriend lol so i can see those words making sense.
I was skinny until I had my first child. I think then it was easy to excuse weight gain because "having a baby" was what caused it. I have gained, lost, gained, lost several times. It's bad for your heart.
The quote is good.
Truer words were never spoken. Hugs and blessings, my friend
