I am 30 years old and I feel like I have really really let myself go before I was married (3 years ago) i was sitting at 127 my height is 5'2 so I was feeling really good just a few more pounds to go, then I got married my husband didn't agree with my eating habits and took over my routine, now at the time I was active duty military so I had a very busy lifestyle so I would make meal replacement shakes and eat protein bars but my dinners where chicken salads or smaller plus I went to the gym 2x a day. Once my husband got involved all that went away he was jealous and over protective when it came to the gym so he took that away, and he made me big full breakfasts early morning and fast foods for lunch and big dinners so after so long and my dumb ass trusting him thinking maybe he was right I am sitting at 182 pounds I am trying to get back to where I was but idk how to find my motivation or how to start sorry for the long spill it's just idk how I lost myself

@howell.j619, I think it's best to start with ur diet bc it's more what u consume that how much u work out although an active lifestyle is great I don't believe u have to lift heavy and do major workouts to achieve a healthy weight. Live by this rule it's simple"if u can't grow it or kill it don't eat it" that's it so if ur food has labels it's probably bad if it has dirt it's good. Don't eat anything processed but u really don't need to look at labels bc ur food is not going to have labels on it. As far as work outs I do things at home now bc my son is small. I love yoga even if u start with light stretching and breathing techniques that will get u on the right pace and as ur weight falls off u can get more active and add intense cardio and weights. I'm here to help any way I can I look to cook and try to post my food often happy to give suggestions

I completely agree with what you're saying it's just getting to that point seems so hard lol I guess don't really know how I got to this point, not sure if I can explain it. Didn't realize how bad it got till I realize none of my cloths fit

Looking back and Feeling sorry doesn't help - you are beautiful no matter what! However, if you feel more comfy with less pounds I fully get it!
Put a pic of your 'old' body on the mirror - every time you look at yourself, you'll be reminded of your goal and don't buy sweet juices, soda, chips or sweets! What you don't have at home can't be eaten😅
Schedule gym time or sports time in advance and if you have someone to go thefirst 2-3times that's great, if not, just stick with going !

I was a gym junkie before I started dating my boyfriend. In no way I blame him for me not going to the gym, I just always wanted to spend time with him so I ended up slacking off and eventually stopped all together. It's hard 😕 if you can remember how you started going in the first place, maybe try that again! I would go right after work so I wouldn't go home and relax first.
