    Yep, get back to getting and feeling healthy. You'll feel so much better after you've worked out. Forgive yourself for binging, check in with your cycle (if you're a girl), and then let it go. It happens to all of us.

    ...oops. Suddenly the binging and overemotional attitude make a lot more sense.
  • Never give up! We all have a hard time for a while here and there but just keep on going. You can do this!!
  • i yo-yo dieted for 4 years so i know what you mean.... do not beat yourself up over a little weight gain....give yourself credit for what you've achieved regardless of the weight gain... we are human we go through phases... just tell yourself you will go workout for 30 min today.... start with baby steps again... and don't forget staying in shape is easier than getting in shape :)
  • Just hang in there! I've "given up" many times, but in the end, you have to decide you are SOOOO worth it! You are worth being in the best shape/health of your life. You are worth it! Falling off the bandwagon is called life. Sometimes the best laid plans go awry, but so what? Just get back on the bandwagon.

    And the weight gain, silly.

    There is always an obstacle we must overcome, especially when it comes to weight loss. Where do you go from here? You have to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and get back into the routine of things that brought you as far as it did. Make TODAY the day you get it all back, you can't fix "yesterday", what's done is done. I used to say "tomorrow" I'll start, "tomorrow" I'll smarten up, but tomorrow never came then, on my 30th birthday, I told myself and anyone who would listen that "today" was the day I was getting me back, my gift to myself was that of health. You are human, you will falter, what makes you successful is getting back up when you fall. The worst thing, for me, is to be home with the temptation of food. You have to be accountable to yourself, nobody's watching. I heard a quote a little while ago..."Nothing tastes as good as healthy feels". If you must eat, eat healthy, eat things that are full of fiber, water, etc., and stay hydrated, drinking keeps you full and, if you're full, you don't have room for empty calories.

    You can do it, I may not know you but I believe in you!!!

    Good words..................
  • I am sorry to hear that. Please start back. I understand. I quit any diet for about a year. My high school best friend's parents, who were like parents to me, died in a car accident and I could not find the motivation to get back on track until just a while ago. I can say at least you are still walking the dog. That is something, don't discount anything you are doing for yourself. You can do it. Please don't let yourself go too far away. I managed to keep 20 of the 50 pounds off. I hope this helps. :smile: :smile: :smile:
