This happens to us all. Give yourself some grace and make a workable plan. Weight does fluctuate, so going with a weekly average can help to keep the daily emotional rollercoaster at bay. Hope this helps :-) 

LivinBreezy thank you for the encouragement. 💕 After taking on the responsibility of being a caretaker for my mother in law (she lives with us) I just completely let myself go. So has my husband but he'll never admit it lol! I haven't stopped exercising, I just completely stopped watching what I eat. Worst mistake ever! Especially at my age. 

Keeping up with exercising is a big win! Do you have an idea of a plan yet. Not drastic, but something you can work into your life with your family... 

I am going to start small and just track cals and try not to go above 1900. My issue is that I beat myself up and then go balls to the wall and it works temporarily and then I crash. I need a sustainable plan for sure. 

just realized you've been here since jan 22, not this January. 6 kids, and you do headstands 🤸‍♀️👏🤸‍♀️👏 

I'm also an 'all in' 'full steam ahead' type A. Had to learn little changes every day are the ones that add up to the big changes and are sustainable. I make a meal/food plan for the week. Make up some meals (the basics) ahead and it works. Never be too rigid and don't beat myself up. Re-evaluate end of the week. Hope that helps :-) 

Thank you so much 😊 It actually helped a lot to just talk about it! I am going to take your suggestions and see where I end up a week from today 😉  

You're welcome 👍 

You will be ok. And then I am sure the loss will arrive 

Sounds like you're on the right track. A lot of adjustments at home, don't forget to take care of yourself. 

you got this.  

Thank you all so very much! It is so nice to have a community of strangers encouragement and lift me up like you all do 💕 I really needed to hear all of this 😘
