Reassuring to know I'm not alone

bombus

Have been reading these posts & must say it feels good to know I'm not alone. Rather, we're not alone. I'm struggling to lose the weight I gained following a few years of IVF attempts (failed). I ate my sadness & would like to lose 10kg. I'm having a break between jobs to get over the emotional fallout but it's so hard. I've gone from working 12-14 hour days to being at home. Crisps are my Achilles heel, just love them. So the main challenge is trying to avoid those cravings when I'm sad & bored.
It's wonderful to read how others have overcome their challenges.
Let's do this! One day at a time. Imagine what we could achieve if we put all the energy we use feeling bad about ourselves & our weight into other areas of our live.
Good luck on your journey & thank you for sharing & caring.

Good luck, you can do it! Ive started a couple weeks ago, and lost ten pounds and feeling fantastic. You just have to find a nice hobby and remember to never stop believing that you can do it, because you will!

Bombus -- sending cyber hugs your way .... we CAN do this! We are worth it! I think you had a powerful statement, "Imagine what we could achieve if we put all the energy we use feeling bad about ourselves & our weight into other areas of our life." -- hit home!
