Finally broke that plateau. Haven’t been this weight since I was 6 months postpartum with my second youngest child who is now four. Anybody else find taking pounds off creates an emotional experience? As in, I am emotionally connected to the past by my weight. So strange. I survived DV which ended in my ex husband’s self inflicted demise, I got out about five years ago now, and he’s been passed away for three years. I am approaching the weight I was in that marriage and I am feeling that ptsd coming up, trauma survivors, sometimes put weight on to protect themselves. Some thing important to bring up in therapy.
