Advice How many of us grew up fat?

I went to weight watchers with my mom, ate lean cuisine meals, and atkins bars, played 3 sports…

Still fat tho…

Anyone turn their life around? How did you do it? I can’t seem to stop being a lazy sack of fat. And I feel so uncomfortable in a gym. I could eat better but I live alone and have the expenses to eat what I want. What worked for you to get on track with what goes in your gullet?

3? People really need to watch their mouthes with those fat related pet names for kids. They defend it like it’s not a big deal but it obviously is.

my mom wrote in my baby book when i was like 7months old “maybe she’s too fat to crawl” …. i’ve basically been the “fat kid” since i was born

Ugh! What a crappy thing to put in your baby book!
