[quote=Anonymous]It really is hard. So easy to gain; so hard to lose. My husband and son are extremely thin and muscular by nature. Even though I work out daily, I am prone to butt + thigh cushiness. They can eat chips and chocolate and whatever they want without gaining a single pound. Me? Hah. Nope. It is really hard to lose weight with all that around me, but I am doing my best. I grew up feeling shamed for hunger -- my mother was extremely thin, as were my aunt and grandmother. I would be chastised for snacking or "large" or second portions and learned to hide my eating, even though I was never overweight; I just wasn't stick thin. I am working to change my thinking away from feeling deprived when I choose to eat less and ashamed for eating/ actual hunger or indulgences to feeling empowered and strengthened by my decisions.[/quote]
