Lost 85lbs, feel emotionally worse than I ever have in my life. Anyone else? Tips for fighting the urge to just start eating everything I see so I might feel better?

40F, down 85lbs, sitting now at the top of normal weight for my height. Weight loss was slow and consistent, about 18 months, mostly through CICO.

I didn’t have high expectations when I started the journey, wasn’t even actually focused on weight loss, and certainly wasn’t expecting some sort of emotional high from losing weight. As much as I wasn’t seeking “happiness” from losing weight, there is nothing that prepared me from feeling this poorly either.

I feel…awful. Crazy emotions, and none of them are good. Have been medically checked and levels of everything under the sun are apparently normal.

All I want to do is gain back the weight so I feel normal again, but of course I don’t actually want to gain the weight so I’m fighting every day to try and remember the importance of the physical health.

Please. Someone tell me they’ve experienced something similar? Suggestions?
