It seems like such a major life transition that I bet a lot of people gain weight. I see that in my wellness practice a lot where people go through a major life transition and then gain weight. I think the biggest challenge I see is that people think that losing weight is about eating less and moving more. It is not. There is so much more to it than that. Whether that is hormones, thyroid issues, gut microbiome issues, stress, anxiety, or just listening to crazy stuff on the internet people get stuck. As I read through the comments I just wish that people approached it with more compassion and understanding for how hard it is and that we should love our bodies for what they can do, not for what they are not.

Staying in shape during postpartum for me was significantly harder than during pregnancy. Gained nothing more than l needed to during pregnancy, once the baby was out the stress, the hormonal rollercoaster and sleep deprivation made me insatiably hungry. My baby is almost one and my weight is back to my normal, once they start moving around and keeping them alive is a routine it gets much easier.

I used to be heavy, especially for being 5'1, and I was never comfortable with it, but I never took control of it either. Unfortunately, medications I was put on ( not for weight loss ) caused a side effect of weight loss due to loss of apetite from them. The weight flew off, and let me tell you, the body dysmorphia is real. Taking control yourself when you are ready is the best thing you could do mentally and physically. I loved hearing your message it made me feel better about my situation, I can take control about how I view myself because this is the new me.... for now 😊.

If you don't keep moving after getting out, you will get fat. Do you see what happens to athletes when they stop playing? As a 13 yr vet myself my weight hovered at 118-128. Depression and 46 lbs later I'm walking around about 174. Had to kill that noise because what sciatica don't need is more weight and pressure. I lost that weight and maintain a nice 140. I'm 5"6 and a dude though. I know its different for men and women but the discipline is still the same. Good luck Sis. Don't let these Lizzo types fool you into thinking it's okay to be morbidly obese. I mean it is, but it aint. You feel me.

Lizzo is losing weight now and a lot of the “body positive” influencers are because that trend faded real fast . Not a h8tr but it’s about being healthy and weighing 250 to 500 lbs is not healthy on anyone for long . The body starts stuffing and then the silent killers like NAFLD and HBP , insulin resistance have done so much damage .

Maybe she’s just enjoying herself for now. Keep in mind that women gain weight so easily when they’re not on top of it. For instance, I went on a trip and was eating without tracking for 2 to 3 weeks and I’m up 8 or 9 pounds in a short amount of time and I’m just coming off my period. 🤦🏻♀️ But I can understand wanting to indulge after being strict for so many years. However, I also agree that you can’t let it get out of control because it can quickly get out of control then you’re approaching obesity and you’re like how did this happen. 😬 I’ve been there. 😅 She used to do weight loss videos, which is how I found her a few years ago. Maybe she’s planning on doing diet and fitness videos in the near future.
