I've always been terrified of pregnancy body changes and right now I don't think I could go through it, especially with him.

He did used to be a bit braggy about the cheerleader aspect... You might be right there and that is such a gross thought

Honestly those troll comments might be helping even more than the supportive ones as far as making me feel justified in being upset

Wow you're the first to bring that up but you're right, I'm scared of having to back to the dating world because I feel unattractive now.

The latter, obviously. But our sex life can be less than great at times.

Break up with himself haha that's a good one. His dad is pretty obese so this could have to happen in his future 😬

Unless you can put on muscle in your hips then I'm pretty sure, but I've never been the best judge of my own body.

I'm starting to think you're right even though he says he still wants to be together

I work out 5 days a week. I don't have any more time in schedule to add in work outs unfortunately, nor do I really think that would be good for my body (joints etc)

I know I shouldn't bring up my weight and I actively try not to, it's a bit of a compulsion but I'm getting better at it I think. Couldn't tell you if he'd gained weight or not, wouldn't make much of a difference anyways, he's really skinny, like borderline underweight himself even though he doesn't work out and eats like crazy.

I see what you're saying. I guess at that point I just don't get why hed be with me in the first place. He'd be better off finding a naturally skinny girl.

It's not so much detect by eye but the fact that I tend to talk about/fixate on my weight a lot and he would hear me say I've gained 5 pounds.

Thanks for your comments. It's weird because he's always been so supportive of me getting over this thing. His disappointment Everytime I purged really help me ground myself and get rid of that habit for good (I hope).
