Don’t give up!! Be gentle on yourself.This is going to take time and and patience . Sometimes the weight is going to yo-yo. But you got to keep at it you can do it !! You did the hardest part and that was starting to get yourself on a healthy track again. I started my weight loss journey November 2015 I was 357 pounds. It’s taking trial and error to find what works right with my body and health. I am now 217 and I work hard every day to stay focused to get to my goal. Set little goals for yourself 10 to 20 pounds at a time. I don’t always rely on the scale for Numbers. Measure yourself once a week . There are weeks that I didn’t lose but I actually lost inches. if you can try to stay away from anything with sugar and processed that will help. Good luck on your healthy lifestyle journey!! 🎉🎉🎉🍀🍀🍀👍👍👍 

Look how much you are down. FInd a dietician, if you have one try a different one. I'm pulling for you.  

I feel you!!!!!!!!!! It is so hard but you just gotta do like me and start looking to the future and not the past....just because you messed up a week ago, or yesterday, or last meal or 5 mins ago, don't let it get you down, just pick right back up and go from there.... I found one of my main problems w/ weight loss and dieting was that I would mess up one time and then decide well I messed up, might as well eat whatever I want from now on today.... I realized that this was causing me to just stay in that negative mind frame so now, if I mess up some, I just keep on trucking and say to myself, next meal I eat, I am going to stay on plan.... You can do it. I am struggling too so I can be your struggle buddy if you want, LOL 

Don’t give up U have support here Everyday is a new opportunity to start fresh 😊 (Meal prep has helped me stay on track) 

I know how you feel. You remind me at the years before 2012. It can be done. With or without surgery. I wish you find your own way.  

I started off by just curbing from eating after 10pm to start. Once I got that down, I started eliminating sodas and cheeses. After I was able to do that, I cut my eating times to no later than 8pm. After I mastered that, I started recording my calories. my daily intake was around 2800 calories. I figured I could find food low in calories like chicken, and I started implementing chicken into 2 meals of mine a day. Lunch and dinner. I started walking. finding ways to get myself away from snacking. short walks at first. I didn't want anyone to see me. I got use to people seeing me. My walks got longer and longer. I found the strength in me and I said I was fed up of not feeling healthy anymore. I quit eating after 7pm and weened my calorie intake down to 1800 calories and used a pedometer app to track my walking. I started out only able to walk 1200 steps a day, and by month 5, I was walking 5000 footsteps 5 days a week. By this time, 9 new I could do it. I joined fatsecret and logged all of my calories and kept walking, that's it. No running, no weight lifting. It was by all means the lazy man diet. that's wha I called it. It worked. I got down to 200 lbs. and all of the sudden I knew it. I could run and jump again! I had lost enough weight to start mowing the lawn again. the weight started falling off my friend. I prayed to God to give me the power to do this and that helped me to. But I did it for me. I was dying. I couldnt breathe in my sleep. If felt so uncomfortable in my own skin. I learned to like to sweat and I sweated off so many pounds that I dont sweat in the heat anymore. Do it for you. we are here to show you the way. look at out pages, the stories, my story. Always remember, when you are ready, that the power is yours! Follow me! 

u will and u can if u want to. 

The gate to happiness is self-compassion. Appreciate yourself and honor your soul. You deserve to be happy, healthy and strong.  

I started off by just tracking and seeing where I was over eating to find patterns. Skipping meals, free food at work, fast food pre-dinner on the way home and the bad influence of my spouse we’re my big issues. And by entering absolutely everything, some stuff I didn’t eat just because it wasn’t worth logging. If my advice helps, use it; otherwise disregard. 👍 

I wish you the best! I really like the way that Jaimejay did it. Instead of trying to change everything at once, he concentrated on one thing, one thing at a time. Changing habits is very important and it does sound like an excellent way to start.  

Don’t get discouraged - every day is a new day and a continuous journey - u got this ( ps I know what u mean- we all have those difficult day’s ) stay uplifted 💫💫 

Gosh.. you can't give up. You don't have the right to give up. I won't allow you to give up. So here's the thing. DON'T STARVE YOURSELF! You'll just binge more! Eat your RDI amount.. and see a 1 lb loss. TRACK your food.. write it down. HECK I STUFF MY FACE WITH MARSHMALLOWS BECAUSE I CAN"T STOP EATING SWEETS... and IT WORKS JUST FINE FOR ME! But always keep a limit! As long as I'm at my RDI.. that's all that matters. RE-Calculate your RDI weekly. Look if i can do it.. you can too. and you know what helps? MUSIC. Listen to music.. and DANCE like no one's watching! :) No giving up. Something else that will help you. Let's say you have a 3500 RDI. Take out portions of 100 cals. for different foods so you don't feel like you're depriving yourself! Then you have 35 snacks! 100 cals of rice. 100 cals of chicken. 100 cals of peanut m&ms 100 cals of pretzels 100 cals of veggies 100 cals of lettuce.. DUDE YOU GOT THIS.. Don't throw the towel in.. that is NOT an option!  

All my hopes for you. I know it's hard. 

I started July, 2019. Today I’m down 5 whole pounds. I just weighed in, no tracking food for months. My Dad died, hubby having medical problems. Just this week, I’m charting food again. Just don’t give up. Do what you can & keep going. One day it will come together. Hang in there! 

Good advice from all! Don't give up! 

I tried keto, low carb, vegan, everything. But the more I deprived myself, the more I craved those foods. So now I just track things every day. Another tool I'm using is starting with smaller portions. If I'm still hungry after I eat the smaller portion, I'll go back. But typically I'm not. Basically I was putting too much on my plate and then cleaning it. I also try and hold off eating in the morning until I'm really hungry. Usually I'll make it to 10 or 11 which saves me calories later for dinner where I like to be satisfied before bed. Keep trying different things until you find what works!! I still have a ways to go but I'm not giving up! 

everyday I tell myself I did good yesterday I will do even better today! 

I love this group. Everyone rallies together to help each other. We are in this together, I am so glad every night I get to read everyone's stories of success or struggle. It makes me keeping going when I feel alone and hopeless!!
