I’m 5.5 months pregnant and feel massive haha.
i have a mental health history with eating disorders for over 10 years, managed to get it sort of controlled in that I stopped counting calories, weighing food etc but falling pregnant threw me off as I started doing less (can’t gym as much or hard) and snacking more (nausea got me). It became REALLY hard
but, soon as baby started wriggling, everything changed. If I don’t feel like going gym, I don’t. If I feel crap I leave it and go home. I can relax, and not stress about the food or how much. I don’t binge anymore. It’s so freeing.
I didn’t think I’d get here, but I’m here. My baby has changed my priorities, and I thank god for that.
if you’re struggling, just remember there’s a baby in your belly. Your body is doing AMAZING things. It’s working damn hard. Any weight gained you will lose, but only because you want to and not because you have to
i just wanted to express this, because I didn’t think I’d get here and I hope it might help even one other who might be struggling internally
