hello, just joined this group. i have looked into a proper bmi for my height and weight which depresed me because i realized even at the high end of my bmi range i am a hundred pounds overweight.
i used to be 100lbs soaking weight and in single digit pants. but then i got pregnant. and my situation changed and i fell into almost 12 years of serious depression. now its just mild depression and manageable without meds.
but thats how i got fat now i have to loose the weight.and its hard.
my day starts at 430am. i get up and get ready to be at work for 8 am. I bring a lunch so its healthy. but its supper that kills me
most days i dont get home until 5 or 6 and im exhausted.so its fast food and a fall into bed by 8pm.fast food literally before bed i know is where my weight is coming from.
i dont have time to make supper before work and on my days off like today i just too damn exhausted to make any more food than i have too.
i also am a care giver for my wife who is ill. so thats where alot of my energy goes to as well.
and my weight is mostly in my belly. my calfs and arm are rock solid.my thighs can use a little work. but my belly? yeah that is where it sits.
how does one loose weight with this lifestlye?

Now we also have long days and I do make many healthy meals quickly...we are gradually clean eating which is a process especially for kids and have cut out most fast food except for a rare treat. Best changes are just make slow changes start with easier habits to break then move to more difficult ones. They all really add up tho.
