I am at a reasonable weight for my height 5'5" and 147, I know this in my head. But emotionally its a whole other story. Most friends really don't want to hear me complain. But 2 months ago I was 134 and I am still reeling from the change.
I take a medication that helps me sleep and I very much need it but the side affect is weight gain. At first it really made me hungry...thats were the first 5 pounds came from. The rest, I am not sure. I eat the same amount of calories as before.
One thing I am sure of, is I feel panicked that my clothes are not fitting and what I see when I look in the mirror. I am trying to be practical and not so hysterical about it (so I do not drive my husband and friends nuts) but that is a challenge.
There are 2 options IMO.
A. Go off medication (horrifying)
B. control what I can, be healthy and let go of what I can't control.
I am still trying option B.
