Throwaway because I'm really embarrassed that this is my mental state.
I'm a teacher. When shutdowns happened I worked out a good bit. But when school started back up it was such chaos every day that I was just trying to get by. I waited til summer to restart because I just didn't have the time or mental energy to devote to my health during this wild school year.
I'm F, 37, 5'10, SW: 163, GW: whatever gets rid of this stomach. I know by my height, my weight sounds alright. But I think I'm "skinny fat"; I'm not in shape at all but the only place fat really collects is my stomach. No curves, just stomach. After 3 kids it never went back down and I completely look 5ish months pregnant all the time now. Even when I was actually working out last year, I felt more fit but my stomach didn't really go down.
But now I'm home with time on my hands, I'm tracking CICO and I want to be motivated to eat healthy and exercise, but all I think about is snacking and food. And how much of a struggle it is to want to work out at all. And every day I feel more demoralized because I got this way and I feel like I'll look this way forever. I just don't know how to be motivated to do anything.
