I don’t know where to start

Guys,

I need help. I am a 41 year old woman who’s currently 5’4” and around 255 pounds. I would like to lose 85-100 pounds.

Now, here’s the kicker: I’ve done most modern diet plans (WW, Jenny Craig, etc) up to actual weight loss surgery (lap band, but had it removed). So, I know HOW to lose weight, I’ve done it before, it just seems so overwhelming this time.

Part of my problem is I eat for comfort from my anxiety and depression. I see a therapist and am on meds, but part of me thinks I don’t want to give up my coping mechanism. I thought if I could do this weight loss slowly, not go “balls to the wall” and cut out everything at once, I might feel like I working with myself, instead of trying to overpower myself (which is how diet plans usually feel for me).

I am not a soda drinker (thank God), but I am all about the sugar, pastries, cookies, ice cream, sugar and cream in my coffee. Very little vegetables. I hate to cook, so I fall into ordering out a lot - and with delivery services like DoorDash, it’s only gotten easier to eat out.

So, where do I start?
