Once upon a time I was 80kg and lost 20kg with the help of this community. Now I'm 110kg and back.
This year I had my first baby. While I regained the first 20kg over the years, I gained another 30kg during pregnancy. I thought it was a lot of fluid because every part of me was huge and dented easily, but I lost nothing after the birth. Zero. I look less swollen but my weight never changed.
What motivates me is how difficult simple things are now; like putting on shoes. Also my sugars are too high.
What deters me is how trashed my body feels now; like the effort isn't worth it because the damage isn't repairable. [not a reflection on others, just need to explain my current self talk]
I'm hoping if I slide back into this community and focus on resources where you can see mothers with severe stretch marks sort of "bounce back" I'll gain some hope and confidence. I do appreciate body acceptance for that too, but I can't accept the impact of my size on my life.
Tldr: I've returned to the community that helped me after nearly 10 years and one baby to change my perspective and my life again.
