Been on Reddit for a little over a year. First time posting to this page but always reading everyone’s posts. I’m F/5’4/165lbs. I started losing weight around 4 and a half years ago. I’ve always been on the chubby side but I was 230lbs at my highest which is way more than chubby for someone my height. I was finally got out of an abusive relationship and lost 45lbs in a 3 month period. I feel like losing weight when I was that heavy was so much easier than it is now. But I managed to keep losing and got down to 160lbs the following year. Then gained back 30lbs...basically cried about it then started slowly working back to getting healthier again. When the quarantine started last March I was roughly 170lbs or so. I decided to take my newly given free time and start bettering myself. I went for walks everyday, did a lot of mobility work, stuff like that and ate relatively healthy. I was tracking my calories, not so much my food. I managed to get to my lowest weight ever since I started which was 155lbs. I was finally in the “overweight” range for my BMI and no longer considered obese. Now, almost a year later. I had to leave my apartment, move back home, and I’ve just fallen into this depression I can’t even explain. I’ve only gained back 10lbs which I know I can easily lose. But I just don’t know how to start. I’m at a loss. I’m trying to gain motivation and drive and I get so many different suggestions of ways to get my ass up. My body wants to. I can feel it but my brain just doesn’t cooperate. Anyone else going through this? I want to hit my goal of 140lbs by the summer but I’ve also been saying that for 3 summers now. It’s like when my life isn’t in order all regards for my health and eating habits go down the drain. That’s the best way I can describe it. One thing goes bad and I just give up on everything. There’s probably more to this psychologically than anything but I wanted to share. It’s hard to express things like this to family and friends sometimes especially when you can’t find the right words.
