I'm in a funk. Anyone else ever been in this situation ? Here's my story...in November, I had a hysterectomy , prior to this, I had lost 43 lbs! But after the surgery, I let myself go due to not being able to exercise & just no longer caring about food :( now ...may, I've pry gained 50 or so lbs since November , putting me at 285 lbs . I went from a size 16 in jeans to a 22 :( ...Ive tried to pick myself back up and get started with it again but I just can't seem to stick with it again. Help! ...thoughts...motivation...something!

    That's a lot of change, especially hormonally. But you've made a great step by asking for help and getting on mfp! Congratulations on that!!! :) Start by making better food choices. Take out the junk (high fructose corn syrup too) and start exercising a little each day. You can totally do this!!! Please feel free to friend me and I'll help you in every way I can. :)

    You have made the most important step which is getting back on MFP congratulations! next I would just start logging every thing
    because you need to know how much cals.. ur taking in, and like the other member said just start moving more. Something I use to do before I really started workingout hard was walking or jogging in place during the commercial breaks, it's a good way to start exercising, good luck to you!
