Sorry in advance; I'm on mobile.

I haven't been doing so well on my weight loss journey, specifically this week. I started in July 2017 and lost most of the weight that year. I spent most of 2018 stuck at 190lbs due to marital issues and other stresses. My husband left February 2019 and the divorce was finalized in June 2019. I dropped to 174 easily as I wasnt interested in food but crawled up to when food became tasty again. I gained a few more pounds, the holidays, etc, and now I'm just under 180 again.
I felt good starting this year because I started taekwando, took 4 mile walks most days, and started to jog on those as well. Then I got sick early Feb for a few weeks and got off track. And this week I hurt mybright leg/foot while hiking I guess and I've had to be off it all week. No walking or anything. I probably made it worse because I didnt notice anything was wrong and still did my 4 miles in both Sat and Sunday but was in pain on Monday.
I've also been over eating at maintenance or above a bit consistently this week. I feel like crap but I'm having a hard time controlling myself. If I over ate before, I didnt feel so bad because I was being active. Though it wasnt good to do that because it slowed my progress.
When I was sick in Feb it wasnt so bad not to be active for a few weeks because I was ill but this is different. I'm unhappy not being active and I think that makes me eat. After taekwondo I have no urge to eat and if i dont over eat before my walk then I'm also not likely to break my daily budget.
I'm sure stress is also a cause but I'm wondering if the increase in activity is making my calories insufficient? I dont feel like that's likely. I have 1470 per day.
Any upliftingnthoughts, tips, anecdotes for me?
