Hi. My name is Glen and I have a Fat Secret.
:-)
But seriously, most people don't realize I'm as fat as I am. I carry most of my weight in my gut, and I'm an expert gut-sucker. I've been doing it since forever and it's my natural subconscious state to be sucking in my gut. I probably have great abs. :-D
But when I let my gut out, ohhh boy. I'm well past my 3rd trimester. I could be carrying a pre-schooler in there. :-D
Okay maybe it's not as bad as that, but even my doctor doesn't think I look overweight. I won't even let my gut out around him, so he can see the real picture. Though technically based on my height, my BMI puts me in the obese category.
So there you have it. My fat secret.

Hi, Glen, you seem pretty knowledgeable, I'm sure you'll hit your goal in no time. I can relate to carrying the weight well, most people were shocked when I used to tell them I weighed over four hundred pounds, but even carrying the weight well, it's still there and committing to getting off is the right move. Good luck with your journey, hopefully it won't be a struggle!

Thanks Phil! Yeah, I've been here (overweight) before. But had gotten into the whole emotional eating as well as falling off the exercise wagon for awhile. Now I have kicked myself in the backside and decided to get things back in gear once and for all. I do like to keep up to speed on the latest science-based advice for weight management. Thanks for the support, and great job on your weight loss! Very inspiring.

Sometimes I think it would be better for the excess weight to show, for a couple of reasons. If we don't look overweight, and people tell us that, it's too easy to accept what they say and figure we don't have to worry about it. Compounding the problem is the loose, casual clothing that is popular nowadays, and can cover a multitude of sins. So we can just keep overeating, until it becomes a health problem and/or obvious to everyone. Hopefully, with the support of others on this list, we can all make progress toward our goals of weight loss and better health all around.

For sure Pandasmom. It's like I even hide it from myself. Until I get in the shower and decide to let my gut out and it's even shocking to me! I'm like "OMG I've got to do something about this." Of course avoiding the scale for many months didn't help.
