@MoonieBaby You are NOT worthless, disgusting or repulsive. Every time you look in that mirror say “I am pretty, I am kind, I am valuable”. And believe it, because you are.

Funny @shaggygirl . Actually, my PJ's are a little looser so I've either lost weight or tore the elastic waistband.

[JYWilliams]

LOL,  Yes a little.

[Malcontent]

Of course not. I’m (and will always be) 106 lbs.

(I lie a lot) especially after turning 60. .

@mamaslittlepotato 

Such a kind thing to say to me and it is greatly appreciated.

Probably...it's stress eating for me and I'm too afraid to get on the scale!

I happened to hear on the radio just a few days ago that the average "Pandemic weight" gain is 16 lbs.

@Bhvbum I did the same thing. Ate it all very quickly.

I just can't have anything in the house without scarfing 

it down.

Finally got a handle on the food and my sugar, I'm a diabetic. 

Good luck to you and to all struggling with food issues.

I started having trouble with my diabetes...proababy because I'm eating more!

I have gained 5 pounds mostly from boredom! I am 70 and don't work so what else can I do but bake cookies and cake and eat? My husband is a doctor and very insistent that we follow the rules so I don't go anywhere except the grocery store. I do see my daughter and grandchildren on our driveway or theirs when I give them cake and cookies!

I hate to admit it but I think I've packed on a little weight. Some of it is because I'm having a painful episode of aching joints and back for the last month or so, and I'm not as active as I should be. I feel awful; my clothes are getting a little more snug than is comfortable.

[SurferWife]

I haven't gone up a size in clothing, so that's a good thing!
