I'd be grateful for any advice.
I don't know how to get out of this spiralling routine and would appreciate opinions. After my last child was born I wanted to lose weight quickly, and lost about 6 stone quickly. My dh was telling me I looked ill but I felt great - weight about 8 st. That was about three years ago.
Since then I struggle to maintain it so have a ritual of using laxative tablets so I weigh the magic number. I don't binge particularly, but if I eat something with calories, like peanuts and a beer I feel so ashamed and have to get it out of my system. Because I take so many tablets it makes me feel physically grim, guilty and terrible as what kind of role model am I. My kids are all under five, but I have to stop this.
When the cycle hits its like a black cloud descends. I've always been anxious too I guess, sort of perfectionist.
Sorry for going on, but my question is how do I sort this out? I want to live a long happy life with my dh and dc's and certainly not pass on any dodgy relationships with food to my daughters in particular.
Is there a solution?
