Same, I got into running then COVID hit and I did the lockdown and eat thing, putting on about 20kgs which somehow snuck up on me... I'm 6'5" so it's not as obvious unless I weigh myself. I've been running three times a week since September last year, had a few injuries and breaks, but keep managing to drag myself out of bed. The change this time has been running with the doggo, he's expecting it now, so he helps me up in the mornings when I don't wanna. Whether it's running, swimming, biking, weights, don't worry too much about weightloss, but more about heart health and overall body health. An entry level Garmin has great stats that help with this motivation, at least for me. Keep at it hey. It's worth it.
