How to learn to love my body?


Im 33 years old, a female...happily married and have a 15 year old son...my problem is im overweight, not by just a few pounds, but by ALOT...i was diagnosed 4 years ago with Hashimoto's disease (thyroid disease) , and I have gained so much weight from it (100 pounds) i hate the way i look, i hate the way my body feels, i dont feel sexy, i dont get completely nude while making love with my hubby (although he supports me and says im sexy and he loves me more then anything in the world) i just cant understand how anyone could love a big blob of fat...i watch what i eat, i exercise daily (7 days a week) 1 hour on the treadmill at 7% incline going 3 mph and i also do pilates. Im not losing weight, I feel so depressed, when my son & hubby are home i always act cheerful & happy, but when they are at work and school i just cry, i dont eat sweets, i dont binge eat...im just so lost, im not sure what to do anymore, how do i accept myself for who i am and be proud of it?

i do see a dr every 90 days i have to have my blood tested for my disease, when i do start to loose weight, my thyroid goes crazy and they have to up my meds, so in turn i start to gain weight again... believe it or not thats your decsion, i have no reason to lie, i didnt lie about how much weight i gained

ohh baby, it sounds like you have a wonderful life, a wonderful, supportive husband. and I know with any type of thyroid disease weight is a hard thing to get control of. but by eating right and exercising your not gaining any and your also maintaining a healthy life style. you can be big and beautiful and sexy, it all depends on how you carry yourself. tell yourself every morning when you wake up that you are beautiful. join a support group. learn how to dress to make you feel beautiful. and be thankful every day that you have a hubby that supports and love you no matter what.

it's a silly movie but, with a great story line that in the end size doesn't matter...... phat girlz, watch it!!!!!!

I can tell yu lady, that I have been attracted to girls who are fat, And also there is some sexiness in girls who r overweight. And I think yur husband too just cant get enuf of yu... Your curveous body may be making him hard down there.. So just be haPpy, whtever bdy u got, its the perfect one :) Report It

go see a nutritionist.or personal trainer.u should see a doctor if u are eating healthy,exercising and still not losing weight.but i think thats impossible.if u REALLY exercised and ate healthy and small portions,u would loose weight..

I am sorry for your diagnosis, but I can honestly say not very many women are satisfied with there body. One way you can accept your body is knowing that it got you around. It got you on that treadmill, it carried your son around as an infant and it made you a strong person. I know how hard it can be living with a disease, I have type 1 diabetes and it sucks. I always ask why me? what did I do? Not to get all religious, but I tell myself because god knew I could handle it. You seem to have a great family, a husband who loves you no matter what. To him, you are the sexiest woman in the world, no matter what you think! I wish you luck with everything and I hope all goes well!

Find someone to love it and let their love for your body rub off.
