Okay here goes, I am so embarrassed about my weight.
First of all obesity runs in my family grandfather weighed in at 428, uncle over 400 and even sister weighed close to 300 lbs. The only thing is I always weighed in at 99 lbs, yes I admit it 99 lbs. When I was pregant I only gained 19 lbs, dd weighed 7 lbs 5 ozs. I put on the same clothes that I wore before I was pregant to go home from the hospital.
Then somewhere between the age of 51 and 52 I socked on 60 lbs and I am only 5'2" tall. I went from a size 6 to a size 16. This was so drastic that the doctor even ran all kinds so test to see if something was the matter, nothing according to him.
I don't eat a lot of sweets, hardly ever finish everything on my plate and have even cut my pepsi's down to 1 a day and it doesn't seem to help. I even drink 8 glasses of water (except weekends) a day (ty Bubba Mug).
I do love salty stuff but I don't even eat a whole lot of that. I do like the mini snack pack of popcorn with my 1 can of pepsi. It is like my metabolism just totally shut down.
I am not going through the change because I had a total hysterectomy when I was 39. I just know I don't feel good, I have reflux now from the weight and I can't seem to get rid of the pounds.
I don't really exercise, but I do have 6 year old twins living with me and feel like I never stop going.
I am 53 and don't expect to get back to 99 lbs but I would really like to get to at least 110 lbs. I am hoping that with ya'lls help I can do something about this.
