I was wondering what the hell this was that I was starting 2 experience. Good 2 know I'm not alone or that it has a name. Ever since my second (and LAST) kid was born, there was no time or money left over for much food or TIME 2 eat. As a result, I lost a large amount and fast (horrible saggy skin, tho).

I grew up obese and always fluctuated between a weight of 230-270 and currently find myself at 175 (everyone says I look 130)..which is VERY strange 2 me! BUT ppl are nicer, clothes are easier to find, I can do ALOT more things physically that I couldn't do before and I'm 30!!!!

Alot of the times I get ppl telling me how "great" or "wonderful" I look and all I had 2 do was calorie restrict like a mofo. Well, for me personally, being thinner in today's society is a HUGE improvement from when I was stomping around with 3 chins... in a friggin' WIFEBEATER none the less..

Don't EVER wanna be "The Fat Mommy".
