I'm another one to add to the PCOS list.
I've always been big for as long as I can remember.
Binge eating from being bored/depressed, comfort eating or even just having massive portions.
Food was never really used as a reward but my Mum'a big too and still is to this day. We used to have a mostly healthy dinner at my grandparents and then unbelievably go home and eat another (much more unhealthy) dinner/large snack!!! Which i realise now was one of the most stupid things ever.
So of course I was big all the way through school which lead to immense bullying which in turn lead to depression and eventually self harm. I still suffer from depression now and practically zero confidence but I'm very slowly getting to grips with a healthier attitude to food and have to put in SO much effort not to binge.
I'm also another person who ate secretly when I was younger and then just ate what I wanted when I wanted when I moved out at 17!
