I have to say, the best method I've found is to just keep moving. I put on a good deal of weight with covid, like 25lb because I couldn't move like I usually do. Left me tired, out of breath and sitting, like ALOT. I lost muscle mass and gained fat. That left me MORE tired. 5 months later, I'm still trying to get my groove back. It's hard, because I'm also a stay at home mom, kids are cyber schooled. I've started intentionally pushing myself a few days a week the past few weeks, and I'm feeling the results. A little more every other day or so, be it exercise or cleaning, baking or cooking, remembering NOT to ask for help because its heavy or difficult goes such a long way. My treadmill is the 3 flights of stairs. I think it's time I stopped counting how many times I run up and down them. I do get discouraged, I cheat on foods every few days, but that's ok because as long as I keep seeing a drop on the scale and feel stronger and healthier I know it's worth it.
