[QUOTE="Olive_B, post: 2277681, member: 526233"] I can't tell you all how much I appreciate all your lovely and helpful responses. I've taken a few days now to try and process this whole thing. The nutritional thingy (especially number 3 - the whole it isn't your fault part) has been really helpful. It's been incredibly tempting to blame myself but I also know that after a bad back injury things really started to change for me in a negative way. Medication I was prescribed to treat the nerve pain caused weight gain, limited mobility made it hard to stay active, I was later diagnosed with hypothyroidism which also caused weight gain... it's been very frustrating and this really felt like being kicked whilst already down Things are different now though! I'm starting to find it easier to remind myself that this is okay, I can manage it, and I'll probably learn a lot which is exciting for a big nerd like me. Basically, I just wanted to come back to this thread to give everyone a great big thank you. When I posted my original post I had spent the entire day really upset and things have really turned around. [/QUOTE]
