Weight Loss for Everyone: Suggestions for small sustainable changes I can make.

Suggestions for small sustainable changes I can make.

I find myself in a very strange time in my life. Let me explain.

I moved back to my country after finding out that my dad had terminal cancer and brought my husband with me. This is when the weight gain started. It has been a steady increase since I moved back.

I couldn't easily get a job so started my master's degree, which was relatively easy at that time. I fell pregnant with my first child and whilst I was pregnant my father passed away. My husband and I moved due to a toxic, abusive situation. I took three months off studying before the birth of our son and three months off after his birth.

Despite my thyroid being steady for years before hand (I do have Hashimotos but have only had hyperthyroidism), I was struck with hyperthyroidism which started just before the kid was born... Five months later it was hypo, last time I checked it had leveled out.

When I am hyperthyroid I gain weight because I'm starving and I eat too much, also I think because I have Hashimotos, my metabolism doesn't actually speed up.

I also had post partum depression bordering on psychosis. Anti depressants helped.

So basically, I am almost 30 kilos heavier than I was when I moved back to my country. I am overwhelmed by having a kid, full time study with a brain that doesn't work and my husband whose English isn't great so I have to do everything in terms of administration.

Sitting around a lot, due to sickness, depression and now studying. I used to love cooking, now I simply don't have time, or the mental energy to plan it out earlier.

I need realistic suggestions. I feel disgusting, I look disgusting and don't want to leave the house. Don't want to be in photos with my kid. Help!
