First time posting in weight loss! Sorry in advance for what I imagine will be a long and rambley post!
I've struggled with depression my whole life but it's never had an effect on my weight until now. After I had my DS (8mo) I snapped back almost instantly to a small size 8 but I've really struggled with motherhood and paired with an ongoing case against my stepfather for childhood sexual abuse I became deeply depressed and just overate all the wrong foods. I've gained 3stone in 6 months but after going the mh nurse today I'm back on antidepressants and have got the ball rolling for counselling. I really need to lose the weight as it's completely knocked my confidence, I've even cancelled my long awaited birthday plans as I feel that people will be shocked at my weight gain and I won't be able to find an outfit I'm comfortable in.
I wonder if anyone has any tips for a manageable way to lose the weight? I can't go to the gym etc as I can't afford childcare and just don't have the time. Sorry to ramble so much!
