Weight loss update on my previous thread about how my weight loss was effecting my fertility

I’m currently down 57lbs since June 18th 2020.

You may remember my previous post about my fertility and how it was improving, and im happy to say that after years of not ovulating and having severely irregular cycles, I now ovulate and my cycle has been between 30-34 days for a few cycles now.

However I split with my now ex partner but I’m still happy that I was able to do this for myself.

I’ve been through several events this year that would have previously triggered me to binge eat and I’m proud of myself for making it through them all without binging and continuing with my journey.

-we’ve been in and out of lockdown/isolation periods and I have a high needs autistic child that relies on routine, doesn’t sleep until late at night when out of his normal school routine and I have very little time for myself which is where I let myself slip previously but I’ve been making sure to find ways to take time for myself and plan my meals ahead.

-not being able to see family and friends has been tough on me and a little lonely.

-splitting with my ex is definitely something that would have made me binge eat and possibly even give up on my diet.

-I’ve battled with my mental health over the past year and still have my up and down days.

-Christmas has with previous diet attempts ended any diet I was on over Christmas but I got back on it after a 5 day Christmas break.

And with other things going on in my personal life i honestly would have found any excuse to binge eat, any minor inconvenience would have triggered me to binge.

But I’m still going, I want to be healthy for myself and my child and I’m excited to see how far I will go.

I have roughly around 40lbs to go maybe a little more, maybe a little less I haven’t decided on a final goal.

I’ve made so much progress physically and mentally and I’m so happy I’ve came this far.
