I don't know how to deal with this. It's been creeping up over a couple of years, I was tiny for a while running and swimming almost daily healthy diet, had an accident and lost my mojo have long term illness and chronic pain but had almost overcome the symptoms accident put me right back to rock bottom again and since then have put on a couple of stone, doesn't sound much but I'm five feet tall (small) with massive joint/skeletal issues as well as fibromyalgia and each extra kilo is a killer in terms of pain and fatigue
I do not know how to get myself slim and fit again. I'm in permanent pain, excruciating pain despite my pain meds and I struggle to walk, my local swimming baths closed Down and the next nearest is miles away, I don't drive so used to cycle everywhere but this is now impossible.
I had a goodhonest look at my body today and I'm sad to say it absolutely repulsed me.
I'm mid 40s and on hrt so weight loss will not come easy to me.
I try super hard to eat healthy but low mood and permanent exhaustion make it easy to give in.
I'm trying to do KonMari method on my home but really struggling with clothes: NONE of my winter stuff fits. I don't want to buy new as that's acknowledging what an ugly lump I've become but at the same time it's not nice to squeeze myself into tight sausage skin clothes anymore.
I'm so paranoid what people must be saying about me.
I can't afford gym (single mum mortgage etc)
Please help and please forgive my denigrating self talk, that's just the mood I'm in today
