Anyone else struggle with all or nothing thinking and eating?

F 5’7”, 33, SW: 220 CW: 196 GW: 155?

I started really trying to lose weight in January of this year. Slowly but surely I was able to lose about 27 lbs and get to 193 by April. But over the past several months, I’ve been fluctuating between 193-197.

The biggest game changer for me was stopping drinking alcohol. But I think I hit a point in April where the quitting drinking had its peak effect, and then I could only eat so many salads, or only stave off cravings for junk food for so long. I’m happy I’ve been sort of able to maintain the weight loss, but I’m worried I’ve lost momentum and am slowly starting to gain back.

I’ve recently just been having SUCH a hard time getting back on track and approaching things differently. I keep getting in this feedback loop of eating something unhealthy (sweets or bakery) or going over my calorie limit and then thinking, “well I already over-ate, might as well go all out today and start over tomorrow!”

But the problem is that tomorrow never comes. I can do well for morning and afternoon but by evening it’s like I lose all reason and sort of binge. Not to an extreme, but it’s certainly hindering my progress.

Anyone struggle with something similar? Any feedback or advice would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
