About size

Something none of you know.  I have gotten larger – I had back surgery last year to resolve a badly herniated disk.  The medication and the inactivity before the surgery caused me to put on forty pounds faster than pregnancy ever did.  I have been trying for 5 months now to lose this and am living with the yoyo dieting  and exercise weight gain. Here is what I have learned, I do get bigger if I exercise and that does concern me  – but I have to do it to feel better. I am buying bigger pants but dieting without exercise results in flippy flab and makes me feel ugly, thinner but ugly. I also am not comfortable with hunger, call it an issue but I would rather be bigger than starving for fashion; and for now tailored suits and maxi skirt lengths look great on me.
