You tried restricting your calories to 1000-1200 a day but that didn't work because that's simply not enough calories to fuel the body of a human adult.
You tried the low-carb diet but that didn't work either because your body needs carbs to function optimally.
You tried other fad diets but they were unsustainable because you had to cut out delicious food like chocolate and cheese — and who wants to live like that all the time?
You tried juice cleanses, dodgy detoxes and fad diets but that was a disaster because you felt lethargic, hungry and cranky.
I get it because I've been there.
During my pregnancy, I ate things like muffins, cake and ice cream and ended up gaining 65 lbs. Then, after my daughter was born, the weight didn't melt away like I thought it would. I actually ended up putting on more 😱.
And that wasn't the only problem. I had constant headaches and developed head-to-toe eczema. I was so tired I spent most of my spare time on the couch. My marriage was floundering (not because of the weight but the extra stress sure didn't help me feel any better). In the end my marriage didn't last but that's a whole other story.
