Just venting really. I put on nearly 4 stone while I was pregnant with my son who is now 3.5. Largely because I felt sick unless eating and I only wanted to eat bread, cheese and potatoes (unusual for me as I love veg and salad). I went from just under 10st to nearly 14st. I'm now just over 11st, which at 5ft3 is still much too heavy for my height.
I've always been an overeater, but before I got pregnant I was in the late 9s/very early 10s so just about within a healthy bmi. The lowest I can ever remember being in my adult life is about 9st7. I would be delighted to be that now. 11st just feels much too heavy for me.
I know exactly how to lose weight, I know about nutrition, I know about appropriate portion sizes, I enjoy healthy food (as well as unhealthy food). My problem is willpower. I have none. I have just baked a cake for my husband's birthday and have inhaled the leftover batter and buttercream icing. I feel bloated and horrible.
Is anyone else the same? I just feel I have no willpower and no motivation at all, and I feel I'm the same in all areas of my life - never committing fully to anything, always doing things lazily and half heartedly. I'm so angry with myself. I want a second baby but I would be a high risk pregnancy due to a traumatic first birth and I don't want to be overweight when I get pregnant, so we aren't ttc.
Just ranting really. Please don't recommend me any diets - I really do know exactly what I need to do. I just don't do it.
