gained weight covid eating disorder solidarity stories

I have gained weight in the past 9 months. From a mental breakdown to Covid, I just stopped moving.

I was finally feeling better and a 5 year old told me I was bigger than the last time she saw me.

I think it hurt more because I know it wasn't malicious and was just her observation.

I just wish I could do this year all over because I am afraid my disordered eating is coming back.
