I've hit a brick wall!

I hope your goal weight is a typo!!!

Just remember each day is an opportunity to make progress. You're didn't gain the weight in a day, you didn't lose it in a day and you're not going to gain it back in a day either. We've all had those days where things go off the track. The main thing is to not let a bad day become a bad weekend, week, month.

Your pics are all the motivation you should need. You've done a great job. You've made a ton of progress and are more than halfway towards your goal! Forget today and focus in tomorrow.....

Read the success stories!!! Always does the trick for me

I really empathise with you as I've been feeling the same way lately. Not so much Dorito binges, but wanting bread, wine and cheese. I haven't been exercising as much. I was sick of logging calories, so I didn't. I was annoyed that I'd put on a bit of weight as a consequence and that it happened rather quickly (including my birthday celebrations).

It's been three months for me and I'm pleased with having lost 20kgs, but I feel kinda... burnt out? I'm in need of inspiration.

The other day I realised the "inspiration" I was looking for could come from within me. That I was beginning to go back to the mindset I was in when I was really overweight. That I was starting to feel 'emotional' about food again. I was starting to once again use it for pleasure, which makes me want more and make the wrong choices. (Good food is very pleasurable to me, obviously).

I realised that if I want to be successful in this journey, it shouldn't be important how I feel. It matters what I do no matter how I feel. I decided to pull my finger out.

So, I sat and wrote a promise to myself that I will do x, y, z every day, no matter what. That I will continue to make my health top priority no matter how I feel emotionally. I put it up on the bathroom mirror so I would see it every day.

It's really helped set me back on track. When I see it, I think 'get over yourself', and I just do what I need to... and I feel better and more in the zone each day. It might sound a bit harsh, but it helped me. I'm not suggesting you necessarily take this kind of approach, but wanted to sympathise with you and let you know that you'll find a way to get back on track. It's helped me to feel more focussed just writing this rambling essay!

Good luck on your journey and remember we all go through phases and you shouldn't be too hard on yourself xx

I agree with all of the other posters. I just wanted to add that you have an AWESOME body shape!! At your starting weight I did not look half as good as you did. Good job on your success so far. This too shall pass

I can tell you that you are not alone. The fact you recognize the slip, says a lot about your desire to stay on track. I catch myself binging too and just shake it off and refocus. Don't beat yourself up over it. My physical therapist told me to treat myself once a week. It helps with minimizing the uncontrolled urges.
