This week has been terrible! Had KFC a big bag of malteasers, big bag of m&ms and a big bag of sensatuons. It's been a stressful week I've only been gym 3 times and I am terrified I'm going to gain

Stressful times and if you've been restricting your diet are never a good combination. You just have to stick with it. I always have to tell myself to stop making excuses of why I shouldn't go to the gym or that dessert or snack won't hurt. The more I struggle the more I know I have to make the hard choices. I'm happier when I do.
Don't give up. You so got this.

Sorry your week has been stressful. How does next week look? I now tend to go to maintenance calories during stressful times. Too hard to be hungry AND stressed. A week or two over goal means nothing in the grand scheme of things, especially if you were still at or under your maintenance calories for the week.

Try not to worry! Just because you're be fallen off doesn't mean you can't get back on!

Why not start small again? There was a great post where it was something like "just for today"

So you could have:
Just for today I will stay within my calorie limit

Just for today I will do my workout at the gym etc.
Then you're not focusing on too many things!

Thanks guys! Hopefully after this weekend it will be a lot less stressful! The annoying thing is that not only am i doing it too lose weight, but for my mental health, and how great I've been feeling for it. But hey ho tomorrow is a new day! And even if I put a couple of pounds on, I can 'start again" only a few pounds lighter than when I first started
