Hi All.
I am getting quite desperate now. In July 2009 I started on Lipotrim (a VLCD) at 21 stone and managed to get down to 15st 10 before stopping for Christmas - something that I deeply deeply deeply regret. I should have carried on over Christmas and I would have been at goal a long time ago and not in the dire state that I am in now.
Since January 2010 I have been trying to lose weight again and not succeeding in anything I try. I have tried WW but only succeeded in putting on weight. I have a box of Exante, another VLCD indoors but just am not motivated to do such an extreme diet.
I am a bit of comfort/emotional eater and have had lots of stress this year - Dad is seriously, Job is at risk, Depression etc amongst other things and so I have eaten virtually non stop. I stood on the scales a few days ago and am back up to around 19st 2 or so.
I cannot stop myself from eating and it can be anything at all but mostly chocolate. I dont do much exercise (due to the Depression I just cannot be bothered). As I write I am thinking of eating a massive bar of chocolate. It will make me feel good for about 30 seconds and then I will feel soooo guilty and upset that I have done it. But I know that I will still go and buy the chocolate despite knowing that I shall feel so bad afterwards. I spend most days like this currently.
I have lost all my motivation, inspiration and desire to lose weight. Yet at the same time I miss being that much lighter and wish I was back where I was this time last year.
I know what I should be doing and how to do it but just cannot seem to do it.
:cry::cry::cry::cry:
Anything you guys can offer me in words of comfort, support etc would be simply amazing. I know how this site is brilliant at that. Thank you (moan over).
