Feel like a big, fat, ugly blob :(

[lily123]

Sorry guys, such a self pitying thread.

I'm just so sick of being fat i used to be so slim and toned, now i look like a beached wale! I have to wear underwear that sucks my fat in every single day and they are soooooo uncomfortable, and if i don't you can see all my fat rolls and huge belly and i just want to cry everytime i see myself in the mirror i try and excercise and go to the gym at every opportunity, and all i ever seem to eat is salad, NOT nice at this time of year, and the weight just does not shift

It doesn't help that my OH is GORGEOUS and i feel totally ugly and awful stood next to him, when we meet up with our friends i bet they're all wondering why he's with me, tbh sometimes i wonder myself

Honestly i look at old photos of myself and want to burn/delete them all because i know i'll never look like that again

I bet you don't look half as bad as what you think hun! I hate myself sooo much but I had some photos taken of me the other day when i was with LO in a big inflatable snowglobe having fun and relaxed, and when I see them it was like seeing a different person to what I see in the mirror!

If you are eating healthy and exercising then im sure you will loose any extra lb's eventually!

And you know what is more attractive than anything? Confidence! Something that I don't have a lot of, but seriously when I look at my mates, it's the ones with the confidence that get all the blokes and not the most physically attractive!

Just putting on a bit of fake tan (a good one can make you look tons healthier) and doing my hair and nails makes me feel loads better!

Look at old photos as an inspiration. SIL has a photo of her pre-baby body stuck on a kitchen cupboard with all the biscuits and stuff in to keep her away from them lol! She has lost 2 stone since starting slimming world! I honestly don't know what you look like now or before bubs but im sure you are just fine the way you are!

that is so true...i never used to understand what it was about one of my friends, why she got all the guys. she was pretty but not any more than the rest of us [and she had a fat arse! ] and now i realise its because she is ridiculously confident.

i can gaurantee you dont look as bad as you think, us girls are always too hard on ourselves and way too critical. try doing something nice, spoil yourself with a little pamper sesh if you can. i honestly believe a lot of "beauty" is state of mind..xx

Linzie you're absolutely gorgeous! I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it! Seriously I'm jealous of how stunning you are

And I agree about the confidence.. I have none whatsoever, which is probs why I'm a big gay single longer, but a few years ago (before FOB ) i had loads, probably too much and got loads of boys even tho i wasnt particularly pretty.

I'm sure your bf is chuffed to be with you! xxx

aww it's so sad to hear you're feeling like this, i feel the same sometimes.. like the other girls have said, i'm sure you look a lot better than you feel, and your boyfriend will love you no matter how you look so don't think things like that love you'll get yourself so down over it. i know how hard it is when you feel bad about yourself, but all you can do is try the little things, like doing exercises to target the areas you feel worst about, give yourself a little pamper, try to focus on the things you do like or the things that are improving.. hope you feel better soon xxxxx

[lily123]

Thank you all so much for your responses

xxxx

Hey hun! I'm sorry you're feeling so crap today. I just wanted to let you know, you are BEAUTIFUL! I've seen photos of you on FB and I think you are so pretty! But, I know it takes more than other people saying it to believe it.

 

[MissMamma]

hope your feeling better today hun

 

[sarahxx]
