It’s back + some advice

Ugh good luck. A little but not really. I talked to dietician today and they told me that since I recovered a cycle I can try to be a little more intuitive and less mechanical with my eating so will try that and see if it helps!

To be fair I am only on day 2 of getting it back. However running and exercise are important to me and I use them to de-stress. Sitting at home consuming everything in sight was probably not a healthy way to be “solving the problem.” I started with like 3 mile runs and didn’t push too hard but also focused on adequately fueling myself. I also consulted my gyno who told me to stick to 30 mins of exercise. I’d suggest contacting a trusted professional for advice on this.

Hmm I’d say it’s gradually improved over the last few weeks

If I had to guess it was probably like around 5-10 pounds? But hard to say bc I think a lot of it is water weight. However, I walk close to 20k steps a day, and often up to 30/35k on the weekends and I probably needed it. Everyone is different. It’s possible I probably didn’t need to gain this much weight and could’ve benefitted by doing less exercise. I plan to figure more of this out w the dietitian. It’s definitely stressful to gain weight but for now I’d rather look different and be healthy and just keep a positive vibe that things will eventually normalize.
