[QUOTE="serenity648, post: 1319114"] I'm so glad I started this thread - it is a huge comfort to read of others and know I am not alone, in a world of criticism and being looked down on for my weight. I cant remember how to link people here but RosieLKH's comment about learning to eat without feeling guilty is resonating at the moment with me. I am crying - but in a good way. For so long food has been the battle. Feeling guilty over every meal. Eating what i think I should eat instead of enjoying what I do eat. Feeling a failure and that there is something bad about me. Looking at the low-carb recipes people have generously shared on this forum, I think I can be low carb and still have food i enjoy, and learn to ditch the guilt. As so many of you say, we had the will power to starve ourselves for years, and ended up like this. I now feel confident enough to share that I am 5' 2" tall and weigh 19 stones. In my late teens and early twenties I was anorexic. I was under 7 stones for much of that time. I wonder if that has a bearing on my current weight issues? My husband, from farming stock, says I am a 'good doer' and if I were cattle I would be prized for my conversion ratio with food lol [/QUOTE]
