I’m really struggling with weight loss at the moment and just needed to vent/see if anyone relates. I feel sluggish and heavy most days. I see a PT twice a week, go to the gym twice a week, and usually get around 10,000 steps on work days. I’m on my feet all day teaching, so I feel like I should be doing okay but the scale barely moves.
One thing I’ve noticed is that when I’m out of my normal routine and actually enjoying myself, I feel so much better.
I recently went on holiday for 2 weeks. I exercised the same amount as normal, spent a lot of time relaxing by the pool, and honestly ate a lot (it was all-you-can-eat, so I didn’t hold back). When I got home I was down around 2.5kg felt lighter and generally felt good.
Meanwhile, at home I rarely even feel hungry, but I feel tense and heavy all the time. I’m starting to think stress might be a big factor. It’s like my body is constantly in fight-or-flight mode during term time, and everything slows down. On holiday my whole system finally chilled out.
has anyone else experienced something similar? Can stress really make such a big difference?
