New again. (50+) female recovering my figure

N2couture22

I first come here several years ago.
Life hurled many stressors when I left. This I gained back some weight, loss my confidence again and my figure. I'm not as bad as once I was before coming to MFP way back.
I did however add 4 sizes which slows me down, makes me feel awful in many ways.

Hoping to meet friends who might be supportive as I'll be supportive too. Today I have lifted and now am spinning. My goals are small, so I won't panic and give up. A size at a time and I have yet to trust my scale.
That is no bueno but I'll return to it after my size issue looks improved.
