I am in bits. I know I gained weight over the last couple of years but omg I have measured myself for some new clothing & my waist is 37/38 inches. I'm 5ft 8 and now 13stone. I feel so shit 😭 we are also ttc and now I just am struggling to love my body. Please give me hope I can love my body again... encouragement for how to kick my ass in to gear would be appreciated... thanks for listening! 🙈

You've done the hard bit - the weighing and measuring. Now you need to think where you want to be in 6mths/12mths. The same? Bigger? Smaller? The time will pass anyway but you can decide now where you want to be when it does.

As PP suggested, join a couple of threads and thrive on the mutual support and tips. Wherever you are now, someone else will already have been there and moved on. When you have a plateau or feel overwhelmed, someone else will have been through the same and can gee you up.
