Hi guys. I really need advice on something!! In the past year, I have gained 10-15 pounds from stress, over eating, and lack of exercise. I am generally a healthy person but tend to blend in to whatever atmosphere I’m around which caused a lot of nasty habits to set in at the beginning of Covid (when I was at home) that I haven’t been able to shake. A big part of this has been general Covid uncertainty/stress. Right now, I have no house/no kids/no car/no boyfriend - no strings attached. I’ve spent the past 1.5 year staying with family and while nice to save up, it’s not the healthiest or most active environment. I did have 2 months alone last summer but due to my mild binge eating disorder (that got way worse in Covid), being alone was NOT the move. I was obsessing over every meal and totally in my head. I ended up gaining weight there too.
However, I just found out that I will begin a job in another place in late August. I want to look and feel better by the time this job begins. This gives me 3 months to potentially offset the negative changes of Covid. Basically, what I’m trying to figure out is where/how to settle until then to maximize my goals. I have options in terms of where to live, but I’m worried I won’t be able to do this if I’m holed up alone somewhere, and I know being around family right now causes more stress than anything else. The method that would work for me is living or being around a healthy and fit person. In past years, I have had opportunities to live with family friends or distant relatives for a few months and the weight came flying off because I was finally around an atmosphere where food was consumed normally, at normal times, without any extra thought. I feel like I really have an opportunity to recreate this model for the next three months, but I don’t know how! What should I do??? I literally just want to move in with a fit family member/personal trainer/ healthy friend but I don’t know how to make this a reality. Do you have any ideas? Thank you very much for listening to my story. I am open to any options.
