I never had a problem with my weight until after i had my first child, i was a happy curvy size UK 14. unfortunatly i put on so much weight during pregnancy that for the first time it had become a real issue to me, and that was when my yo yo dieting started, i can get the weight off but i cannot keep it off!
Even though i cant control my eating habbits, my children do not suffer, they eat a healthy well balanced diet and if they do not want to eat everything off their plate then i do not force them to. i think there is nothing worse than forcing food down a child. I can remember my step dad making us sit at the table on Sundays until we had eaten everything, i used to sit there for hours staring at the soggy cauliflower and gagging as i ate it. How horrible is that? Thats why i vowed never to force food into my childrens mouths, because sometimes kids just are not hungry!!!
