Feeling down about weight gain

The past few months have been crazy busy. I'm in a new relationship, working hard and just recently started living alone. With all that juggling I've completely neglected my nutrition and put off exercising. I've been eating a lot of junk food. The other day I weighed myself out of curiosity and I've gained back all the weight I worked so hard to lose. I know it's my fault, but I feel awful. I feel despondent. I know I need to buckle down and focus on losing again, I also know it's going to take a while to get back down to where I want to be and that is torturing me. Why can't I have the daily discipline necessary to keep me from constantly restarting? Sorry for the rant, I just needed to vent.

    Me too :(. I gained a ton of weight over the last year. The scale kept going up and up and up. I don't even know where the last 30came from!

    I just have to accept that I'm at this weight now. All I can do is commit to diet and exercise. It's a waste of time for me to cry over my weight. I will be at my goal weight if I keep working at it.

    Don't beat yourself up!! Take one day at a time. Stay committed to your diet each day. Check back in with MFP for support

    Hey guys, I too have lost focus. I have been busy with school, work and my family. I had a bad bicycle accident and was in the hospital. I have gained a little weight but need to get back on track.. Too many baked goods. My downfall. Need to get back on track......
