can't seem to do the program right

Motivation wanes.....maybe looking at it from the perspective of one day at time will help along with breaking your goals into manageable, achievable bites (no pun intended).

I cannot speak to your issues with compulsive overeating but have you sought any medical help with this condition.....therapy or support groups IRL or on-line may be helpful.

The other issue may be that you have set up your goals within MFP at too low a calorie goal and you are getting hungry and therefore going 'over'.....which is then setting up the awfully demoralizing pattern of repeated 'failure'.

You have a goal of losing 37 lbs....I suggest you put in the numbers for losing weight at no more that .5 lb per week and see if that helps. Other steps starting out:
Buy a set of scales and use them diligently.
Log or pre-log everything that goes into your mouth.
Find an exercise that you enjoy and make it a habit....not to lose weight but to help with stress and also it will give you more wriggle room calorie wise (beware that MFP highly exaggerates the calories burned for exercise).
Get whatever support or help you can to sort out your relationship with food and yourself....good mental health is very important.

I wish you all the best.....

I hear your pain. There's a lot of negative self-talk in your breathless sentence. I am pretty sure you have experienced some successes for instance, just not consistent or sustained success. I was very cautious about setting out on this enterprise twenty months ago, and I told no-one except my patient husband for the first six months. I didn't want to advertise any more failures.

I'm in my fifties.

So the good news, it's never too late to start again!

It might be worthwhile to break apart your sentence and take one issue and work on that. If you tackle that one issue, does it make a bunch of things better? For instance, it might not hurt to find out if you are a compulsive over-eater or not. You may need to sit down with a dietitian or a therapist to figure that out.

When I sat down with a therapist she told me I definitely was not a binge eater. I worried I was for a long time. But there you go. I'm not. I'm a boredom/stress/mindless eater if I don't stay alert. I've developed strategies for the boredom/stress/mindlessness. Like taking up knitting in the evening for instance.

Be patient. Weigh and log everything for two weeks without judgement. Get into practice of observing your feelings and patterns. After two weeks you can evaluate and make adjustments.

Never, never, never, never quit. EVER.

Just keep starting again. Just because you over ate doesn't mean that you aren't making progress. Just trying is better than not trying at all. I bet there are things you have chosen to not eat, that you would have eaten if you hadn't been trying.
I would recommend sitting down one day a week and planning what you are going to eat for each meal for the coming week, go grocery shopping. Do not buy anything that isn't in the plan. Throw away food that will cause you to over eat. Set your calorie goal a little higher, plan snacks that fit within your calorie goal.
Go for walks or bike rides, or do some other relaxing and enjoyable exercise. Take it one day at a time. You can add me if you want a MFP buddy. I am an emotional eater, I am busy, not terribly fond of exercise. But, I'm not giving up. Little failures are bound to happen, I have decided when they do I will just move forward. Celebrate your successes and the fact that you are here, trying.
