Comfort eating

I feel I'm comfort eating all the time now since TTC. I've gained a stone since getting married last September. Initially I went a bit care free with my eating just because I could after losing weight to get married. I then just let my weight do whatever it wanted thinking I'll be pregnant soon so didn't matter too much as I'd only gain weight anyway. I'm now in month 14 of TTC and feel it's out of hand. I feel rubbish about myself, feel untidy in my clothes, my engagement and wedding rings are too tight, and I'm always eating biscuits, carbs, big portions, ice cream. I've wanted to reign it in, but I'm so unmotivated and know I'm just comfort eating because of the whole TTC journey. Christmas is coming and I know I'll just eat and drink my way through without giving a toss, and probably gain more weight. How do people manage it?

Hello 👋
100% know how you feel... me however I've always had an issue with my weight sadly.

I lost nearly 3 stone for my wedding.. then had a fab wedding.. honeymoon.. 1 year later I'm pretty much back to where I was before I lost my weight if not bigger.

Your not alone lovely. I'm just trying to introduce a more balanced diet, cut down my caffeine and alcohol intake and just think a bit more. Has stopped me driving to KFC for lunch today because I'd wanted in for months 😂😂

I'm blaming my first bleed since stopping my pill... I'm so confused 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m the same, lost just over a stone for the wedding and then let go, managed to go back to my heaviest. Each time AF arrives I just want to eat everything. It’s so depressing xx
