Hit a massive wall, can someone help / give tips?

Hi guys it's been a while since I've posted anything, but I really need help with something.
I started dieting last July and it was going amazingly, I had lost 2.5 stone by Christmas. But that's when all the trouble hit; With all the Christmas festivities I pretty much forgot about my diet, with plans on starting again January 1st. January 1st hit, I still had Christmas food and chocolate and things left over so I thought I'd start my diet when all the food has gone ( I try to diet on January 1st, but the fact there was still food there proved too much, so I ended up giving me a few times) The days had past and the food was slowly being consumed (Mainly by me I'm ashamed to say) And when I tried to get back to my diet, it was just so hard. I'm finding every little excuse to pig my face and it's so upsetting and frustrating.
The other day I did something I didn't even think was possible. I just had a day where I ate and ate to the point where I was so full I felt hungry again, or I thought I did. I felt disgusted with myself and I never wanted to eat again.
I'm scared that no matter how well my dieting will work out I'll never be able to change my attitude to food, and I don't know how to get a healthier attitude. At the moment my mindset is "Oh I might as well eat the rest of what's on my plate // If it's there I must eat it"
I've had a weight problem all my life and it's only these last few months I've tried to help it.
Can anyone give me any kind of advice or tips? I really want this to work but this wall is so hard to overcome.
I can't exercise either due to illness which really doesn't help things but before Christmas I was still able to happily lose weight without putting any special effort into exercising.

To give you guys some idea of the weight I want to lose here are some details:
Age: 20
Height: 5'10
Weight before diet: 19 Stone
Weight: 16 stone 13 (approx, I haven't dared weigh myself lately)
Target weight: 12 stone.


Thanks guys, I appreciate any input.

Honestly... will power.

If you have to, throw away the excess food.

It is indeed tough to get back into the groove of things. But, you have to do it yourself. Go do something to take your mind off of it!

Are you getting sunshine every day and/or taking a vitamin d supplement? Lack of vitamin d in the winter is what triggers many people to binge in winter.
