I understand how you feel. I was overweight when I was pregnant and though I lost it all years ago, I am once again overweight.

I am currently working very hard on my self image and trying not to think or talk negatively about myself. I am very actively going to gym and I have recently embarked on a weight loss program. I am taking very small steps though.

So, once again, I do understand the feelings you speak of.

For whatever reason, breastfeeding did not help me to lose weight at all - but I am sure it will work for you.

Please do treat yourself and get pampered, it will do so much for you.
