I had severe mental health issues that lead to me gaining back those 60 pounds plus 20 extra. Bipolar disorder, agoraphobia, etc.
In the past I used MyFitnessPal and lost weight very consistently. I was probably a little obsessed with it. I spent a decent amount of free time just looking up and memorizing the calorie counts of different foods.
With this second round of weight loss, I am trying what worked last time, but I am not succeeding. I can stick to calorie counts for a few days by eating EXTREMELY unhealthy food (I’m talking 2 donuts EVERY DAY). I stay within my calories despite my unhealthy diet, but I end up failing because I get SO hungry.
I am hoping with Weight Watcher’s use of “zero-point” foods will encourage me to eat healthier. I have already put in a normal day’s food intake for today and ... wow. They give me 29 points and I had been aiming for 1600 calories a day. 1600 calories of my normal food ended up being 60 points!!! That’s double what they are allotting me for a day...
Hopefully this focus on healthier options that WW provides will push me out of this fast-food rut I’m in.
