I’m just wondering what people think about how much their past or present trauma is affecting their weight?
It’s probably not groundbreaking to think like that - but it hit me like a bolt from the blue last night.
I’m meeting up with distant family soon and I realised that since they last saw me I’ve suffered lots of challenges- and it just seemed so obvious that it is all showing in my body.
I suffered for about 20 years all in, and am still generally struggling with loss of confidence etc.
so I basically look like I feel. Even though I know all the theory of healthy lifestyle- I am probably the healthiest I’ve ever been in terms of diet and exercise.
but I think the build up of decades of stress and the menopause is making me massively overweight with terrible posture.
it’s a shame as I was attractive when I was younger and I keep on thinking I’m going to bounce back- but instead I’m getting heavier.
