Sex? Ugh..

How is it possible to enjoy having sex with my husband when all I can think about is how fat I am?  I feel so completely unsexy it is pathetic.  I have tried wearing makeup and stuff, but it doesn't help when I only have one pair of jeans that I can wear.  I have such nice and cute clothes, but I can't wear any of them.  I have tried everything I can think of.  I can't really go walking or anything because my baby is sick and I am not gonna walk with him in the stroller because of the damn weather here.  He is already sick, I don't need him getting sicker.  I have tried exercises at home...but hell, I exercise enough running around cleaning house and chasing my toddler around.  How the hell am I not losing weight??  I am so damn tired of being fat and I can't seem to do anything about it.  I am drinking lots of water...I have almost completely cut out salty foods.  I have cut down tremendously on sugary stuff.  I have a couple of cups of coffee and maybe one soda a day.  That is a huge improvement for me.  I am only eating when I am hungry instead of snacking all day.  I've cut out fried foods.  I don't know what else to friggin do.  I feel like I will always be fat.  I hate it.  I feel so damn ugly and unattractive.  How can anyone want someone like me?  I feel like I'm defective or something.  I hate looking at myself.  I hate thinking about sex or anything that has to do with my body....  I hate myself.... How can I learn to love me again?

I hate to say this Nic, but my grandmother used to always say that we need to be greatfull that we have arms and legs because there are so many people who are disfigured and they have to ask the same questions only it is a lot harder. If anything the disfigured people always have an amazing outlook, havn\'t you noticed? I just avoid mirrors. But, I hear you on the weight gain, I am right there with you. I think I have gained 10 pounds in the past couple of weeks. I buy medifast off of ebay & I use it to skip meals during the day which is great for TN. I need to go back to it again. Just try to love yourself pretty girl! XOXO -Holliday

You should be losing weight. Hmm. Do you weigh yourself all the time? I\'m gonna guess that stress may be the culprit here.

Other than that though, if your husband is attracted to you then you shouldn\'t worry about your body during sex. He sees a sexy beautiful woman so try to look through his eyes. **HUGS**
