ok, so i've been on all kinds of different meds, and usually i get no side effects. but i was on cymbalta and it made me gain thirty pounds - no joke. i kept my old pants/shorts cuz i thought one day i'd be back into them. two years have past.
but this summer, things finally started to change. a new combo of meds helped me lose about twenty pounds. i was wearing a size thirty-six pants, but now i fit into my size thirty-three pants this week. it was the greatest high i have had in a LONG time.
but no one around me can support or be happy for me. their usual responses are: "you can have my extra weight; i'll share some with you; wish i could do that".
just wish for once that i had someone who could understand just how important this is for me...
