    Red face Gained 12kgs since ttc :(

    Thanks to the beautiful crazyness of ttc, i have gained a massive 12 kilos in 6ish months.

    Hello, im Lisa and i am an emotional eater!

    I know i should stop, i just cant seem too, which is so contradicting because i would not in a million years let my children eat the junk that i do.
    I know i should stop, it would be better for trying to concieve that beautiful bundle that hubby and i so desperatly want to add to our family.
    I know i should stop, as it is affecting the way that i interact with my children, mummy is too tired to play monopoly.
    I know i should stop, i actually feel sick after eating that whole bag of doritos, or that bag of peanut m&ms, or even that pile of chips.

    Its not about excersise as i already walk an hour a day mon-fri and 2 hours on fri.
    Its about what i put in my mouth, every thought about ttc or seeing af, or even hearing of someones pregnancy, makes me open my already fat mouth, and shovel yet another discusting, but o so mouth watering, carb, into it!

    I have been totally soda free for the last 2 and a bit months, so if i have the will power to go with out any soft drink, (replaced it with cordial, btw), then why cant i go with out this junk!

    not sure what i was trying to accomplish here, maybe just admiting to my bb friends that i have a "habit", i can try to overcome it!

    I know how you feel. I can eat a whole block of chocolate, packet of chips, fresh loaf of bread with margarine, bag of biscuits. You name the junk, i'll eat it.

    I tend to eat when i am bored. i have nothing to do, so i reach for chocolate. I am sick, i eat chocolate. I even sometimes hide when i am eating it or wait til everybody else goes to bed and binge on chocolate.

    I don't have any advice, BUT YOU ARE NOT ALONE GIRL.
