Interested to see if anyone who has lost a lot of weight on this forum could help me with a couple of questions.
When you lost weight did you find it very difficult to understand how to deal healthily with increased energy?
Did your mood swings alter quite a bit?
Context as to why I ask these questions. Since losing quite a bit of weight my mood goes from very high to very low quite a bit. It used to mostly be low.
Energy wise, I exercise quite a lot more now and love walking but have very sore joints. So it's possible I don't enough now I'm a bit smaller and so turn to a few beers or a big meal here and there which makes me feel sluggish and a bit better as my minds not going a mile a minute.
I also find it hard to find time to exercise enough to tire myself out enough as there's so much else more interesting to do, exercise is quite tedious even when listening to a podcast or audiobook!
Just interested in others experience, I'm recently diagnosed autistic so interested in others on this forums thoughts / experience
Exercise helps, but I get the joint pain struggle. I've also noticed the temptation to indulge in comfort food or a few drinks when feeling sluggish. It's a real battle to find the right balance.I get you on the exercise boredom too. Even with podcasts or audiobooks, it can feel tedious. But hey, you're not alone. Finding what works for you might take some trial and error.Also, it's interesting you mention being recently diagnosed autistic. That adds another layer to the mix. It's all about finding what helps you feel good physically and mentally.But if you're still exploring options, I recently stumbled upon Goliath Steroids. Surprisingly, they're not as bad as I thought.
