    Quit looking at the big picture and start small.

    Start just tracking your food.
    Then start trying to keep it under 2000 calories.
    When you can do that lower it to 1800.
    Then start going on walks...

    Doesn't sound like much, but it works in the long run.

    +1000

    perfect advise

    You got some great advice here. I am so glad you are seeing a therapist. Just getting the feelings out and talking through it all will help. I don't know about you but I eat for emotional reasons. If you are seeing a counselor, that right there will help with that. Also, just being on MFP is a huge support system. I would be happy to add you as a friend and offer you support and encouragement along the way. It is not easy to lose weight and I have felt what you are feeling. I have lost weight and put it back on and am now losing again. Keep your chin up, take it one day, one meal at a time. Just try to work on one behavior at a time. Track calories. Then you can move on to another, drink water. Little by little you will add things and start to see small changes. It is not an overnight change. If you lot too fast you will put it right back on. Slow and steady.
