i looked just like this pic at one time....only i gained weight after i ran away from my long-term rapist when i was a teenager. i got over 300 pounds at one point. and then i realized i was using the weight as a way to keep people (especially men) away from me and that i DESERVED to live a happy and healthy life for MYSELF! i have lost over 100 pounds at this point and still have 60 more to go! all i can say is you can do it if you really want it. it will take time and effort but it will definitely be worth it in the long run!

What I don't get is that you know what the problem is yet do nothing to solve it. I don't understand that.

I have lost thirty pounds since June 1st. Here's how: No restaurant food, no take out food (Especially Chinese!), no bottled drinks! No Bread, cookies, carckers, cake, pasata, etc. I drink nothing but water, and a black coffee in the morning. I have gone from 215 on June 1st to 185 today. I want to loose 15 more pounds so I can go to the gym again. (Had a stroke in April, which really motivated me to make changes!) If I can do it, so can you - G-d bless!

Yep, you use the weight as armor to protect yourself. Don't be ashamed. Abuse is very challenging to heal from. I would suggest working on the psychological damage from the abuse before attempting the weight loss. So many people these days working from the outside first to put on a mask while on the inside they are still f***ed up and on drugs etc. Heal yourself from the inside out. Best wishes.

It's hard to deal with weight gain. People can be so mean over some extra skin! When some people look at a fat person they see no self control, laziness, slob, smelly... NONE of that is true. I see a rape victim, an abused wife, an incest survivor, an abused child and a tortured soul. So next time you fat haters see a large person. Remember, NOBODY wants to be a big fat sweating tired person! It's the effects of abuse that was never treated properly. We need help, not hate!

So my guess is that this person wasn't just abusive, but quite controlling. I'm not trying to make excuses for your weight gain, but I can sure see how that could happen in your case. I really don't think this is something you'll be able to fix by youself and a good therapist would do you wonders, but God bless ya for opening up and admitting what has happened. I know you are going to do great and I know you will find the right therapist. Don't let this creep control another second of your life. Go get yourself a new outfit and get out of the house. Have some fun and find your identity again. You go girl! God bless ya!
