I feel like I just need to accept that I am going to be overweight and unhealthy for the rest of my life. I did lose 75 lbs after my daughter was born 3 years ago (from the time she was born, to just about her first birthday) but now I am stuck at 30lbs overweight because I then started bingeing and overeating.
Just needed to vent, I'm sure a lot of other people are in the same boat as me  Do I just need to accept myself the way I am? |
I really feel what you are saying, and I am feeling like that at the moment too. I feel like it is a hopeless case for me. I was, well still am seeing a naturopath who advised me to eat and snack regularly, lots of protein and good foods. I generally eat well, but often eat compulsively if bad foods are around. But I haven't really gotten anywhere, a bit up and down, but in four months have lost about 3kgs.
When I'm feeling down all willpower goes out the window and I eat anything and everything. I feel like the next step is totally restricting my diet, doing the small and regular meals. And cutting out all my bad/trigger foods totally.
I wish you all the best, and even though I don't take this advice, be good to yourself.
