I am at a stand still and the weight is creeping back

I have no idea, but I'm kind of in the same place. I started doing the 30DS hoping to jump start my weight loss again, but all that happened is I injured myself and now can't work out at all. Which makes it really difficult for me to hit my calorie targets each day. So I gained 3 lbs. last week (OK, also because I went on a trip and ate WAYYYYYY too much). I'm trying to get back on track, but without being able to workout, I'm finding is SO difficult.

If you find some motivation, please share!!!

I am in the same place. I am slowly gaining back and dont know how to stop. I do workout everyday, but I cant stop snacking.
I know that is my problem, but cant stop.
I keep saying I did it before I can do it again, but then I have a cookie and another, until the batch is gone.
I am trying to input all my foods in the morning so I only eat what is logged and dont go over. I also talk myself into my work out before I get out of bed in the morning. One good day will turn into another.

Plan your meals ahead and stick to the plan. Looks like your logging lately has been sparse.

I am eating more than I should, what my issue has been is finding that motivation to be strict about my diet. I just haven't cared lately and I know that is bad. I need to do something and get focused.

Look at the scale going back up. That should be all the motivation you need. Don't ruin all of your hard work now!

I feel your pain! I started this journey on in Feb 2010, lost 50 lbs by Feb 2011 and have kept it off since then. However now I am really struggling with myself and find I am allowing some of my old habits (e.g. eating too much junk food, not working out enough) to creep back in to my life. I haven't gained any weight on the scale but my clothes are tighter so I certainly have gained back some fat and lost some muscle tone.

One thing I can say for sure is that losing weight is the easy part, it's keeping it off long-term that's hard. Very hard. You'd think that after 2 years the lifestyle changes I've made would be a slam-dunk, but they are not. I've not missed one single day of logging food & exercise since I started MFP, even the crazy days, and that's part of what keeps me hanging on.

This week I recommitted to a healthy life and am planning on being successful - no "maybes" or "I'll try", I'm just doing it!

Good luck to you all!

Treat yourself to something pretty to wear that you couldn't wear before (preferably something that doesn't expand to much) and tell picture yourself in that shirt, or pants that you would wear if you lose even more weight. Then throw out the junk food, get some easy to fix low calorie meals, get a new work out dress and just do it.

I have been in the same boat.
I lost over 20 pounds, going from 147.5 to 126 and was only three pounds away from my ultimate goal weight.
Then I went on our family vacation the first week of August. And then went on another vacation at the end of August. Both of those, I allowed myself to eat whatever and a few pounds found their way back on. Since then...I have gained back a lot.
I thought during my weight loss that I was being very clever getting rid of all my bigger clothes as I replaced them with smaller sizes. Now that has backfired and I have had to purchase some new pants so that I have something to wear.
It has been like an addict trying to stay away from drugs. Each morning I would wake up determined to eat right, not snack on junk and get in a workout. And then I would derail and eat everything in sight.
Finally last week something clicked and I feel like I am really back on track. This morning I was back down to 139. Still 13 pounds up from where I was this summer.
I am trying not to be angry with myself anymore and just determined to get back to that place where I felt good about my body and the effort I was putting in.
((Hugs)). We can do this!!

Up your protein intake and cut out the sugars and grains!

Don't wait until you've gained all of your weight back to finally do this, because you know that's what will happen if you don't do something now. Small changes can make a big difference. You don't have to go drastic with it, but if you're anything like me, once you put it off until you're right back up to the same weight that made you miserable in the first place, then you will be full of regret and thinking of how far you could have gone if you had stuck to it. Good luck, and you can do it, just don't give up.
