Hi everybody! Long time lurker, first time poster.
I started my weight loss journey last year in June (SW 170, female, 5 foot 3), and thanks to keeping a solid routine of weight training, swimming, and CICO at 1200 calories per day, I dropped to 132 pounds just this past February.
I think it was just when I hit that milestone that I started to slack off. After all, my GW of 120 was just 12 pounds away. Surely I could eat an extra slice of cake, or skip the gym for a day. It also didn't help that I plateaued around this time so I was getting frustrated with not seeing any more losses on the scale.
Then COVID hit. So no more swimming, or gym. All I did was sit at home all day and eat. I know I could have taken up jogging or worked out at home but I was just too lazy, I guess. Lounging on the couch watching Netflix was more rewarding.
I eventually stopped counting my calories. The guilt was too much when I reached a week of 1800 calorie days.
This morning , after months of binge eating and lazing around, I weighed myself. I'm at 150 pounds. It feels like I'm undoing all the progress I made, and I can't find the will to try again.
Sorry for this depressing post. I guess what I'm asking for is any advice to get me out of this funk, and re-motivate myself to get back on track to losing.
Any advice is much appreciated!
