[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m always stressed, intense. No matter how much I try not to be stressed, I meditate, do yoga, breathing, therapy, that’s who I am.  Should I even bother to do sit-ups and watch what I eat?[/quote]

What worked for me: therapy and the Calm app (specifically I do the Daily Calm and the Daily Trip) and about every 10 days a half a generic Xanex on the bad days.  It took about six months for the therapy to work and for me to generate different reactions.  The best phrase I learned was “that does not belong to me” and I learned I could participate in only the things that I wanted and drop the things I thought I should do.  I dropped quite a bit of volunteering. I dropped out of some online groups and do very little social media.   I also changed to a pescatarian/vegetarian diet but no soy (it causes inflammation in me).  I have always exercised and still do - averaging about 10k steps a day and 300 minutes a week at my target heart rate.

For weight loss, I lowered my caloric intact by about 800 calories a day. I lost for about 6 months and now I am working on maintaining that and not worrying that I did not make it to my goal.  I am slowly adding back some calories and so far I have been able to maintain the weight loss since the beginning on June.  [/quote]
