February 2020 - early 2021 I lost about 30 pounds. I got my birth control switched, I found an exercise routine that i was enjoying, and I paid more attention to what/how much I was eating. But since maybe March of this year I have slowly fallen off the wagon and I've gained back 15 pounds. I am here today to hope to change momentum once again in my favor.
what happened that made me start to slip? Well I decided to move back to my home town. Just like everyone else in 2020 I was ready to get out of the city and buy a house, and I love where I grew up and I love being close to my parents. But my mom seems to keep an endless supply of sugar in the house: ice cream, candy, soda, you name it its there. And she is the type of person where when she "Snacks" she will take a few bits of something sweet and will be satisfied, however, I am the type that will eat a box of cookies and go looking for more despite hating myself. And now that I am all moved into my new house (YAY!) i am there all the time constantly snacking, and I just dont know how to stop.
I'm not entirely sure what I am hoping to get out of this post. maybe I will find someone that wants to keep eachother accountable, maybe this post will help keep me accountable. maybe typing this out will help me accept that I have fallen and that its time to slowly get back up.
What I did learn that stuck with me this past year, is that there is no reason for me to do any extreme diet of exercise, there is no reason I need to lose 10 pounds in the next month. If it takes me 3 months to lose 5 pounds then at least i am moving in the right direction.
Any way sorry for the ramble, not sure this even makes any sense.
