My weight is all over the place

I gained a tonne of weight at university due to depression and binge eating. Since graduating 2 years ago I have been trying to lose this weight.

I did manage to lose about 30 pounds, however, I still have another 25 pounds to go until I am at a BMI of about 24.

With my IBS my stomach balloons:

  • After I eat a substantial meal.
  • Any type of bread/pancake.
  • Ice cream.

I have been exercising, hiking 20 miles a week consistently for the last year or two. From what I can see this just removes water weight which I slowly regain a few days after hiking.

I have a strategy of licking the flavouring off crisps and eating a small amount of sweets, to lose weight. But it’s not working.

I tried an experiment this week of reducing crisp intake and other rubbish. I managed to “lose” 8 pounds.

At this point I’m feeling very frustrated. I don’t feel I have lost more than a pound or two, over the past few months, all of my weight loss is water weight. I would like to lose this weight but feel it’s not going happen with my IBS! Because my stomach constantly bloats.
