Complain about being fat here

Starry Again · January 2013

GAHHHHH!!!! I love my parents, let me start with that. My baby was sick Monday - Wednesday and my mom came from 3 hours away to take care of her. Then my dad came Thursday and they have been house hunting here to be closer to their grandchild which is so exciting.

BUT

They are both really active and eat generally healthy but have sweet tooths (teeth?) and now my house is covered in candy and cookies and other yummy things. I gained FOUR POUNDS this week. So now I am four pounds above my pre-pregnancy weight and 15-20 pounds from where I want to be.

Hold me.

Yes I bought some pants this week that are two sizes up from normal and they were a bit baggy at the beginning of the week but now they are just right

My husband's mother is tiny. And one time she commented about her jeans being too big, and she says 'well I just didn't want to buy smaller than a size 2, so I just try to shrink these'.

Fffs. I haven't been in a size 2 since I was 2.

I took my baby sister shopping for pants a few weeks ago... She needed a size 00 and I wanted to punch her. Between my porn star sized boobs and baby weight my old clothes are going to be in the closet for some time..........

I caught DH weighing himself yesterday. A whopping 95.5lbs. I wanted to smack him. Strike 1.

Instead, I went shopping. I tried on Jeans. Strike 2

I came home and my mom opened a can of soda. I housed it before she got to try it. Strike 3.

Now, I want Ice Cream. and a hug.

Ummm.... Your dh weighs 100 lbs?! A malefriend of mine weighs about 135. I think he's crazy skinny, I can't even imagine 30 lbs less!

My mom always told me growin up, never marry a man you'll outweigh. Hahaha. I got myself a 200+pounder to be on the safe side ;-)

This! Is he teeny tiny??

Yup. I hate him for it... His sweatpants used to fit me somewhat... Not so much anymore! And he is 5.4"... Just a crazy metabolism!

I'll join in!!

Can't fit any of my prepregnancy jeans or pants. Had to buy new ones 4 sizes bigger. Still have 17 pounds to lose. Sigh...

Im having a hard time trying not to compare myself to others.

My friend told me she cansqueeze into a pair of size 10s...I was like wow thats great congrats, how much do you weigh? She said 180...is that possible? Im 155 and 12s are still tight.

Then I see another girl whois posting she is finally a size 12 and I just saw her this week and she looked bigger then me...

Gah...am I bigger then I think?

Yea having a small DH sucks! When I was pregnant with E he lost like 5lbs about the time I hit his weight. He's filled out a little since but he's still only a size 32 in jeans. Shortly after I had the baby I needed pants real quick in the middle of the night and made the mistake of grabbing his boxers. I almost cried.

feel your pain. I put on DH's jeans one morning by mistake since the room was dark... Couldn't figure out why my jeans were so tight all of a sudden.

Were they put through the dryer, they must have shrunk.

Me too! I never wanted to weigh more than my significant other. DH and I weighed in last night and he is exactly 100 lbs heavier than me. Starting on Monday we are going to do a Biggest Loser competition between the two of us. DH was so helpful throughout this pregnancy, but with all my cravings, he too gained weight!

My maternity pants are sagging so badly and I won't bring myself to try on my pre-pregnancy jeans. Today while out shopping I got a pair of regular jeans that are 2 sizes bigger than my norm. Ugh, I can't wait to lose this muffin top!

oh god. my H and I are both fighting it.. he gained sympathy weight.

navyandviolet · January 2013

I am so far away from my prepregnancy weight. And even further away from my prepreg weight with DS1, and even further from it with DD. I have a long road to walk if I ever want to proudly wear a bathing suit again.

candaceleigh21 · January 2013

I had lap band a couple years ago but I threw up so much in the 1st trimester that I had to have all my fill taken out and I havent gotten it put back in so I am enjoying the hell out everything I can get in my mouth so yeaaaa I'm a fatty.

Dana327 · January 2013

Tell me about it. I lost my pregnancy weight yet I still look pregnant, like really pregnant. I am forcing my self on a hardcore diet Monday as well as starting insanity or chalean spelling?.

Mrs.G123 · January 2013

I am OVER it.

NapJunkie · January 2013

Being on a milk and dairy free diet, there isn't much in the way of yummy baked goods that I can eat. Imagine my extreme happiness to find out the holyshytballsamazinglygood brownies at Costco have no milk or soy protein. Here's the problem - it's a Costco-sized package and DH doesn't eat them. So it's all up to me. I mean, I can't let them go to waste right?

I have about 20 lbs to go before I reach my happy weight. After I finish these brownies, and let me assure you that I will, it'll be more like 25 lbs.

Rachelilly23 · January 2013

Despite my AW right above this post (sorry starry, didn't

see your post until after I posted mine), I'm still fat. I mean,

I still have 33 lbs to lose to get to my WW goal weight from

March of last year at 9 weeks pregnant. 38 lbs to get to

where I want to be. It sucks. Both my kiddos turned me into

a crazy fatty!

Yes! DH totally gained a bunch and can't it into any of his "pre-preg" jeans. He ultimately broke down and went up a size....he was so upset! It is awesome having someone to commiserate with!

Ziegeficker · January 2013

I was a size 8 pre-pregnancy and a size 14 now. I still have 15 pounds left to lose, but the drastic change in jean size is because my hips are legit much wider than they were. Also, my rib cage hasn't "deflated," so my bras still don't fit.

I went out and bought some nice clothes during some after-Christmas sales, because I refuse to feel bad about myself. It's freezing cold here, so going for walks are out of the question, and who has time for the gym with a full-time job and a newborn?

I'd obviously like to get back to my old size, if for no other reason than that I don't want to have to replace my entire wardrobe; but I'm not going to pressure myself, feel bad in the interim, or go on any ridiculous diets. I didn't gain this weight because I sat on my ass and at brownies for a year, I gained it because I made a baby. Anyone who wants to make fun of my newly fat ass can kiss it!

Court7803 · January 2013

I was trying on clothes to go out to dinner last night and DH made the remark "how many shirts are you going to put on before you pick one" ;( til I find one that actually fits me.
