depresswd at being 30yrs old

[REDI2PLY]

im 30 yrs old and as far as i can remember, growing up iv always been skinny. i could eat what ever i wanted and not gain a pound. i even had tree kids and still looked good. but since iv turned 30 iv been gaining weight and for the first time in my life i have a belly, and my clothes dont fit, and i dont like it. why is the weight staying? do all womens body at 30 look like this? what should an average 30 year olds body suppost to look like? do they all have bellys?

I am a man but I remember my wife was like you, it�s nothing to do with your age so don�t worry but it�s the children are the problem when you kook for the family you do indulge that bit more as they get older and its contentment with life. But if it�s getting you depressed stat going to the Jim or to a good slimming club and plenty of exercise. Hope this has been of some help and good luck

I'm 30 and have a pot belly, but otherwise, I'm ok, I guess... I'm 5ft8 and weigh 9lbs6 which, is big for me as I'm usually about 8.5st. But i reckon its got more to do with the fact that i eat and drink a lot and don't excercise!!! Unfortunately, all the weight i put on goes straight to my waist, rather than my bum, which is a shame as i have no bum either..... But don't be too hard on yourself.... remember that you've already had 3 kids..... X
