    I’m sorry you are struggling. Congratulations on losing 12 lbs! That’s a victory. I’ve been a compulsive dieter since 14, I’m now 45. I look back and think about all the years I spent hating my body and myself for not reaching my goal of the perfect body. It’s so sad to me. I’ve been working on self love and being more loving and understanding with myself. I also
    Purchased the Beck Diet solution cds and workbook so that I can learn new coping skills and habits. Beck is a cognitive therapist that devised a program to get us thinking differently and redirect our thoughts to More positive supportive thoughts.

    For me emotional eating plays such a huge part in my weight gains. I think once I learn new ways f coping I’ll have a better handle on things. I have noticed a small improvement since I started the work.maybe this is something you might like to explore and see if it resonates with you.

    All the best to you on your journey ❤️
