This is very challenging. I think don’t be hard on yourself as there’s no doubt most people would find this difficult. As Mums we are so hard on ourselves. I totally get the gym thing, but my gosh you have had babies and where on earth would you get time to have kept the perfect figure. Please know that no one in the gym will judge you as harshly as yourself plus they will be so wrapped up in their own stuff they won’t notice or if they do it’s entirely possible they will think positively like ‘good on that lady for getting here’ rather than negative.
if that’s all too hard could you go to the hairdressers or for a facial even if you don’t need it? Anything to pamper yourself just a little.
im so sorry about the situation with your husband this sounds like a major stressor. Is the uncertainty of this what’s most difficult? Can you talk to him about this ? Could you see someone together even if he doesn’t want to would he do it for you just so you can get the conversation going cause it sounds like things have to change a bit for you to be in a better position to help yourself and the family. A mother’s wellbeing is so important for you and the family. I really really feel for you.
