I just came back from vacation. I gained a lot of weight. Everyday it was restruant after restruant, buffet after buffet. I couldnt control myself, the food was so good. I got so much fatter. My body swelled up. I have a huge belly with flab all over the rest of my body. The clothes i had a home felt tighter then normal. Along with my body growing bigger my appetite grew along with it. I find myself constantly snacking , even after i eat my meals. I cant control it. i dont know if im hungry or its just a craving for fatty food. i take swimming lessons but they dont start for a few weeks and i know im going to be embarrassed because of all the weight i gained over the summer. PLEASE HELP!

hey babe...honostly, i know how it feels to be emmbarresed about yourself. It happends to all of us, no matter what you look like. I think that you should just assume that nobody will care what you look like. Even if they do, (which they wont) you will feel a lot better. Plus, vacation is no fun without the food...so dont sweat it.
Love always

Hi...I went on vacation last week and the same thing happened to me...none of my clothes fit good when i came home. i haven't been successful in losing the extra weight but i guess if u just don't eat snacks and eat smaller portions u can lose some weight (i'm trying too) ok i hope this helps
