Well I had family in last week and I pretty much ate whatever I wanted to. I visited my doctor last Tuesday and we had a good long emotional discussion about my weight. I told her everything - from how the weight is effecting my marriage to how awful I feel being a size 14.
She said my weight issues have to do with control. The fact that my life has undergone lots of changes these past 2.5 years - moving out of state and away from family to get married, getting married, starting a new business, selling and buying a new house, etc. All this coupled with the fact that my husband is the bread winner and controls the money as well. So the one thing I can control is my weight. She said she thinks I have probably screwed up my metabolism and she suggested Meridia - I didn't have to ask.
Right now the only thing I can tell as a result from the pill is that I don't think I am nearly as hungry or obsessive about food. I feel full most of the time and am not eating as much.
I need to develop better eating habits and she said I should talk to my hubby and tell him to get off my back for three months while I try and work on losing the weight. No comments from him about anything. I have not done that yet as he hasn't made any remarks lately. When he does, I will have the discussion.
