It feel so good to be on track. Why do we give up?

    When I get too stressed it's easier to give up then push through. I only have so much energy and sometimes I don't have or think that I have the energy and go back to old habits.

    I feel like distractions tend to sneak up and break the good habits that you've created.

    Quit when I stop caring

    I stop caring about too many things too quickly anymore

    Sounds like anhedonia. It sucks, we all need to find something that drives us.

    I quit when I don't see consistent results. I need to see results or I just go off and stuff my face.

    Because I stuff my face with food to cope with all my inadequacies and depression. Then am more depressed because I'm a fat sloth. Continue cycle.

    A combination of these two, actually. Hence why I've been at the same (over)weight status for almost a decade now.

    Depression + anxiety + never seeing the results everyone always talks about when I put in the same effort = giving up and not giving a *kitten* anymore.

    Obviously, I care enough to still log in here every day and make the attempt, but not enough to seriously log anymore or do anything outside of walking. I'm just so tired of trying and not seeing any reward for my efforts.

    I don't quit. But simply slide into neutral gear for a bit, then have to hit reverse and start again.

    Never! weight loss => maintain (lifestyle change) it personally makes me feel like I am 7' feet tall when I'm in shape and I'm only 5' 11" 1/2" ha ha
