Why don't I feel like myself anymore?

Question 1

I'm doing everything right, and the scale keeps going up.

I'm knackered. I wake up tired and run on coffee.

I snap at everyone, then feel like a rubbish mum.

I barely recognise myself, in the mirror or in how I feel.

Everything is tight. It's all gone round my middle.

I don't have the energy to care. I grab whatever fits.

Getting dressed can ruin my whole morning.

I avoid photos. That's not the woman I want to be.

I've been 'good' all day and I'm starving.

I hit a wall. Something sweet or another coffee.

Too much on my plate. I eat whatever's quickest, standing up.

I'm sorting everyone else out. I haven't eaten properly myself.

Eating less and exercising more. It used to work.

Early nights, vitamins, more coffee. Still tired.

Lots of things, but I give up when life gets busy.

Honestly? Nothing for me. There's no time left for me.

Going over what I ate and feeling guilty.

I finally sit down and think “what's the point”: wine, snacks.

Scrolling, and wondering where the old me went.

Knowing what actually works for my body now.

Feeling like me again: strong and confident.
