Comfort eating...?
Hi girls,
I know everyone deals with things differently - some stop eating, some just eat normally and others comfort eat...
I had a mc about 8 weeks ago now (wow that's gone fast!) In my 7 weeks of pg I'd put on 3lbs in weight due to eating when feeling queasy and just being happy I think!
However, since the mc I'v put on another 3lbs! I can't seem to find any motivation to lose it either, despite desperately wanting to in order to stay healthy for ttc again and a healthy pg next time.
I just keep thinking things like I deserve it as I've had a crap time or chocolate will make me happy! I have no self-control at all!!!
Anyone else noticed they've been comfort eating or am I the only one?!?!

Figure if I'm lucky enough to get pregnant in new year my weight is only going to go up and could do with least amount of baby weight to lose!
No sugar has passed lips since Sunday and that's how it's going to stay! On exercise bike as we speak, who's with me!! x x
Feel so much better for deciding to do something about it. I think I've got about 8lb to lose, going to weigh myself next wednesday so at least i'll have had a week and a half for a little bit to come off.
I'm going to try very hard to keep it up when I get a bfp too to stay strong and healthy. My work trousers don't feel as snug as they did this time last week so hopefully it's a step in the right direction x x x
The punch bag sounds like a fab idea, I love boxing type exercises, they're so good for getting frustrations out!
Good luck with getting the half a stone off xx
I feel so much better already, like I've taken some control back and am back on track. I always feel unhappy if I know i'm putting weight on so feel good I'm taking steps to get it down again.
Huge congratulations on your half stone off, that's brilliant. The punch bag is good, only did 15 mins before the bike and I can certainly feel it today.
Doing it every other day as don't want to burn out after a week! x x x
think we're going to book that hol to cuba for next month now, and start running again lots. everyone says it's more likely to happen when you're not thinking about it so much. and it'll make the ttc time go faster anyway!
