Hey y'all! FH and I are taking our engagement photos this weekend, and in the last several weeks I was REALLY looking forward to them because we hardly have any nice pictures of us. But there's a little issue. On top of already being heavy, I gained about 20 pounds after getting on a medicine for my bipolar disorder. The medicine has helped SIGNIFICANTLY, and I'm no longer in danger of harming myself....but I've also gained what is to me, a significant amount of weight.
So, nothing in my closet fits me. Buying a new outfit isn't the problem, but I'm terrified that I'm going to see these pictures and only see MY WEIGHT, and how fat I look. I'm afraid I'll be ashamed to show them on Facebook and to my friends and family. I'm in tears over it. This should be a happy, exciting time for me and FH, but all I'm doing is stressing about myself.
