I'm sorry about the weight gain. I always hate to gain weight. I guess I have the opposite problem, not eating enough. Or eating but not consuming enough calories for all the energy I burn. I went through a phase of bingeing too many years ago; it was awful. I also felt like I was bingeing while pregnant and breastfeeding because I had to eat so much more.
I get body image issues though. Whether you weigh too little or too much and are self-conscious and unhappy with your weight (this was me in high school, before dieting/exercising/anorexia in college), it sucks.
Is your period about to start? Every time mine does and even while I'm on it, my weight goes up 3 to 5 lb.
