For me the reason I put on so much weight is to hide and keep people at at a distance. I have a severe trust issue. I have met people in real life and I can't help but wonder what they really are like. Are they real or are they fake behind a mask.. Funny, I tried to protect myself and I hurt myself in the process. All the physical ailments that come along with the weight. All the people staring at me when I have to ride the cart at Wal-mart. My husband will not even stay with me when we are there. He always darts here and there. Sometimes I just don't know where he went. But, he always comes back before it is time to leave. Funny but it still hurts.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.

Think about your health and focus on what you want to be in 3 years. Not body size, but healthy, agile, strong and confident. See yourself easily doing something you've always wanted to do. (For me it's canoeing on a calm stream.)Find your dream and it'll help to motivate you to be healthy.
This site is a good place to start. Ask questions, give tips, tell us how you're doing. You'll get inspiration here and you'll be able to inspire others.
That's what this is about. We're here for each other because we all know we're worth the pain and effort to become healthy women.
Seriously, I have seen this before in people that were physically, mentally, or sexually abused. All could use some therapy. Please consider talking to someone before it harms your marraige and your life!
