I am not new, but trying again

I have been on and off MFP over the years. Some years more active than others. Usually I don't do anything except for count calories, but I think this time I need to start connecting with the community here again. I did before, but I let my disappointment in myself cause me to withdraw from the community.
Clearly that's not helping, because here I am and still struggling.
I know what a healthy diet is, and I know the importance of being active. My problem is my mind. My mind throws obstacles in front of me. My mind sabotages me, leading me to overeat. I haven't figured out how to get my head on straight.
I am hoping that making more of an effort to connect here with the community will help me get my head straight, plus the meditation practice that I am working to begin where I will meditate for a few minutes before eating any food or drinking sweet drinks.
I also hope to be of service to any of you by giving support.
Anyway, here I am.
