I feel horrible about my pandemic weight gain
Since the lockdown started, I have gained about 15-20 lbs, putting me at my highest weight ever (182 lbs, 5'4" female). I think what I find so upsetting about it is that just before the pandemic started, I found something that worked for me. My partner and I were about 2 months into a good gym kick, and I was seeing results I liked. My body was looking a way that made me check myself out, my parents noticed my clothes were fitting better, and I didn't care that the scale wasn't low because I felt like I was getting muscular. Gyms have been closed now since March 17, and at the start of the pandemic I stress baked and ate comfort food. The weight came very quickly. At the start I was pretty good about doing home exercise with the equipment I had but I lost motivation as the weight still came and I no longer saw the fitness progress.
I don't really know what type of advice I might be looking for or whether I'm just looking to vent, so I apologize for that. I guess it just sucks to go from feeling like you're finally getting to your best to plummeting to your lowest, and knowing that I won't get back to that groove until gyms reopen.
If you made it this far, thanks for reading my ramblings. I feel like I can't really talk to any of my friends about this.
