[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP i agree with you, people gain weight and can't lose weight because they eat too much. I get it. I gained a lot of weight in pregnancy (ate way too much and used pregnancy as an excuse to eat more) and struggled for years to take it off. Pregnancy was the main reason I gained the weight, but it wasn't the reason I couldn't lose it. Sure I give mothers a pass the first few years because it is exhausting and time is limited, but like anything in life, you make time for your priorities.

Not sure why this even comes up though or why this family member or any family member is discussing anyone's weight. That is just odd. [/quote]

I gained about 50 pounds per kid (2 kids).  I lost the weight.  My doctor told me I was gaining too much weight.  I told him that I was gaining b/c I was pregnant.  He said no, your gaining because you're eating too much.  Stop eating so much.  You aren't eating for 2, you are eating for .2.  You do have to work hard to lose it.  It doesn't just come off.[/quote]
