Last October I found real success in weight loss by counting calories. I started off at 262lb, the heaviest I’ve ever been in my entire life, from then to January I ended up losing about 42lbs in total, I was 222 in the beginning of January.
My goal weight has always been 195, I’m a 6’0 male, early 20’s for reference. But when January came by I decided to take a break from my calorie counting and exercise routine. I ended up gaining 7lbs and I am now 229, I’ve been maintaining weight since then.
Recently I’ve been trying to get back to into the routine I had going on but it’s pretty difficult. I’ll start my day out pretty good but by the end of the day I’ll mess up by ordering out or over snacking. This has been going on for almost two weeks now, I’ll tell myself that it’s the last day of eating however I want and that tomorrow will be the day I get back on track. But I’ve failed every single day.
When I was calorie counting I had little issue with self control, the first week was the hardest, I remember. After that it felt like a breeze I was able to overcome my bad cravings and stick to a good diet for months with one weekly cheat meal.
But yeah that’s basically the whole gist of things. I’m having a really hard time getting back into it. Anyone else go through something similar, I’m hoping I can get some pointers because I certainly do not want to gain all my weight back, I want to reach my goal weight and maintain from then on out.
