I will say upfront that I lost weight before. I lost 30 lbs of my 50 lb goal.. but over the past year I have gained all of the 30 lbs back. I stepped on the scale tonight and I am officially as heavy as I was when I started almost 2 years ago.
I almost cried, although, this has been a long time coming. The weight doesn't just tack on overnight. I have been gaining pretty steadily over the past few months. But I have noticed that I have also been working more over the past few months.
Up until about November of 2019 I had between 30-39 hours of work a week.. now I'm working a steady 40 hours and I'm doing online classes part-time (two classes). The work that I do requires me to go out in the community with individuals with autism. They mostly buy lunches and I would take a lunch but I typically have nowhere to heat my lunch. I could always take a salad, but I prefer to eat salads for dinner because I like a lighter dinner. I end up usually eating out with my clients and I have gained 10 lbs within the past month just by how my lifestyle has become.
I feel as if I don't have the time, motivation, or energy (physical or mental) to plan meals, to go to the gym, when I have work and then I have to come home and work on school work. How do I fit it all in? I barely have time to sleep so as it is. I feel as if not only my physical health but my mental health is severely suffering.
Can anyone give me advice if they're in a similar situation? I feel as if I have too much on my plate and I'm spreading myself too thin.
