This may not be helpful if you're on a timeline- but I tried just accepting that a plateau was likely so at 25 lbs lost i just reset my calories for maintaining my weight (from around 1400 which was my 2 lbs a week calories to around 1900-2000) and I ended up losing a couple more lbs and have stayed right there for about 2…

I'm so sorry you're having such an awful time of it. I wish there was a magic thing to say to make it feel better, but I know thats not the case. The only thing I can think of is to give therapy a try? Sometimes feeling better about yourself on the inside makes it easier to deal with the stuff on the outside. You are…

I went through the same thing for as long as I can remember. I have no idea if this could be part of the issue, but I found out at about 22, that i have ADD. It causes me to seek something comforting (food, mindless tv/computer) to avoid having to concentrate. It may be something else entirely different for you, but it'd…
