taking a step back

The last three times AF arrived I got so down and instead of just having some chocolate and snuggle up to OH on the day AF arrived I started stuffing my face constantly because I felt like such a failure because I was still not pregnant(been trying since August last year so not all that long).
Well, I don't own scales and I somehow managed to ignore what I looked like in the mirror. I don't know what opened my eyes to what I have done to my body but I finally bought new scales and put on 3st

You must all think I am nuts because how could an adult just neglect their body like that...I have no explanation but I am going to loose that weight again.
So until it is gone I will not ttc actively to give myself a better chance of having a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.
I am disappointed about that but it is my own fault.

I hope you don't all think that I am a total pig

thanks sarahh, I know what you mean so when I started looking a little blobbier I wasn't too bothered xxx

but I am putting myself at risk now because the weight gain took me from already overweight to obese...
