Hard realization

Diet/Health/Exercise

HW: 350lbs, SW: 321.2lbs, CW: 309.5lbs —

I had a hard pregnancy and developed severe hypertonicity postpartum. I gained 100+lbs and didn’t move much.

Well. I tried to start walking 30min at the gym. After a few days of that, my knees are so wrecked I can barely care for my kid how I’d like to. :(

Buying a walking pad and doing 5-10min at a time through my work day. And lifting weights hopefully in 8 days once cleared by my doctor.

Just feeling discouraged that my joints can’t handle my current weight BUT so thankful I’m on zep and have already seen the scale drop a good amount in only 3 weeks.

Anyone else have anything like this happen? Or just have encouragement for this discouraged lady? lol
