Gaining it back... >__<

I've had such an off period it's scary... I've gained back almost half of what I had lost... and in less then 2 months.
It's scary... that I can fall back into my bad patterns in just the blink of an eye. It's like I just stop caring and eat whatever and whenever.

The sad thing is that my mom ain't supportive at all... she was mostly jealous when I was loosing the weight... and now... she seems content that I don't loose anything. It's really frustrating, and whenever I'm viseting she'll always try to give me cookiees to take home. -_-; Even though she knows I can't have those things at home because I end up eating them all in one go.

I was so happy that I had lost over 25 lbs... I was almost down to my lowes in years... but it's like it's a cursed number... once I get there I loose all motivation and starts to gain again. >___<;

Going to try and get back on track again and loose theese damned 50+ lbs.... I don't want them any more... But it takes forever! And now I wasted 2 months! >___<; I'm so annoyed at myself!

Gehbleh....
 
hANG IN THERE HUN, YOULL DO FINE, DONT THINK ABOUT THE PAST THINK ABOUT TOMORROW AND TAKE ONE DAY AT A TIME, AND JUST REMEMBER, WHAT YOURE DOING ISNT MAKING YOU FEEL GOOD, SO TRY AND USE THAT AS MOTIVATION!!!! GOOD LUCK
 
If it was easy no one would be fat. lol, its tough but if u stick with it u'll love the results.
 
Good luck and hang in there. Try to think back to when you were at your lowest weight point and how you felt then. When I fall into a rut, I do that and it helps motivate me.
 
We're not perfect and sometimes we may steer off our path for a bit, but the important part is to never give up :) so give it another shot!!!
 
Thank you guys for the encouraging words. I really appreciate them. ^__^

....but I still can't seem to get out of this bad period.... I really want to ya know? But it's like the brain shuts it all out, I can go and get something to eat even though I'm not hungry.... >____<; I've gained even more weight now.... And I'm drawing nearer to my starting weight... it's really frightening... Because I was doing so good! Why did I have to stop?

*Sighs*

So frustrating! I don't want to gain any more weight! >_____<;

What should I do when I'm so bored that I end up going into the kitchen and rummage through the cubbords and fridge? I seriously don't know what to do! >___<;
 
When I find myself really wanting a snack and I can't afford many calories at that time, I might have a little pack of baby carrots (25 calories each) that I munch on. Or I drink a big glass of water. Or I have some tea with no calorie sweetener (like Splenda or Stevia). Or maybe chew some sugar free gum. There are ways to curb your cravings without giving in and eating a lot. You just have to find something that can help you get through it. :)

If it's just that your bored, try going for a walk or doing some other activity. If you do exercise instead of eating, you're killing two birds with one stone!
 
I find that people have the worst time controlling their eating habits when they are depriving themselves too much in nutrients and calories.

What is your current diet like in detail?
 
Well... when I actually manage to follow my diet I eat around 1000-1200 cals. And out of those 1200 300-200 cals are protiene shakes, so that I get enough protines. then I try and eat apples and carrots in moderate quanteties. And to round it all up I eat a 'noram' kind of dinner.

But the thing is... when I mess up and go to get something to eat... most of the time I'm not hungry, and most of the time I don't even have the munchies for it... I just go and eat because I have nothing else to do. I don't have a job at the moment so I have to much free time.... and now I'm starting to get depressed again because I don't have a job and that I can't stick to my diet. It's so frustrating!

I seriously don't want to gain any more.... I need to get down under 80 kg's again.... when I'm under 80 again I think I'll get a little better. 80 kg's is my scary weight now... I don't want to be over 80 I really really don't. >___<; But now I'm at 82.3 kg's.... and I feel like a complete looser.... GAH!

Your post was powerful. I'm just getting back to this site after going to a " far country". I have to get back on the wagon as well.
 
Yoji,

It is very difficult to get back to a healthy way, the unhealthy way is just so easy. The link to get it going again is DETERMINATION, make a plan and stick with it. I have lost 50 pounds then put it back on. I never thought I could go again. Thought to myslef, Why, I am only going to gain it back, I. I do not have a support system, I found this site. There are always people trying to stop me from succeeding, it is up to me to keep strong.

Sorry to hear that your mom is not supportive but if that is the case, do not talk about your weight loss to her. Do your thing and if she gives you stuff to take home, walk around the corner and throw it out or give it to a neighbor. You DO NOT have to bring it home.

I am sure there are plenty of 'moms' on here that can be supportive of your efforts. I am one. :jump:

If you are bored, try some exercise, go out walking, shoot some hoops, rollerblade. get some DVDs or if you have playstation get the dance dance revolution game..it is a great exercise and best of all fun.

You can do it, do not contimplate what happened in the passed, what mopm may do to sabotage you just what you want to do in order to succed.

Good luck.

Get out of the house & go for a walk. Everyone gets bored, it's up to you to find something other than food to fill up your time.

It's really frustrating, and whenever I'm viseting she'll always try to give me cookiees to take home.

You can't control your mom or anyone else. Getting frustrated with her behavior isn't going to help yours. The only person you can control is yourself. Just don't take the cookies. There will always be cookies, you have to change your reaction to the food around you.

If what you have been doing isn't working you need to change what you are doing.

Well I admire your courage but the big problem here is that you aren't eating enough.

With that caloric intake AND a lot of it being liquid, you are going to crash easier, plateau sooner and more than likely be more geared towards giving up.

You need to up your calories and eat more whole foods.
Read this to help you get started.
