I don’t know self discipline

Hi All- New to this subreddit. I’m 30 (NB), 5’3, CW: 170, GW: 130. This is my experience. During 2021 I was severely anxious and depressed and lost so much weight and was 109lbs at that time. It was unhealthy because I wasn’t eating due to my anxiety. My mental health is healthier now but my eating habits are out of control. Snacking at night and sometimes in the middle of the night has been torture because I lack the discipline to stop. I have never enjoyed food as much as I have in the last 2 years, I can never just get a meal, I need extras/sides. I just got a gym membership but my social anxiety gets in the way of doing what I really want to do because I don’t know how certain machines work or how to adjust it properly for my frame. I stick to the treadmill for the most part currently. In the past I did IF and stopped eating at 8pm, wasn’t drinking coke, or snacking junk food and went from 160 to 151 in a few weeks. I took a trip to a wedding in Vegas last month and have now gained all the weight back plus more. I’m currently 170lbs and would like to go back to 130lbs to stay healthy. My doctor said I’m overweight and have steadily gained over the years.

I am frustrated with myself and attribute work stress to my binge eating, also cannabis is involved so that’s another reason I’m over-eating. That’s a whole other issue itself. I just wanted to vent and get feedback on how to strictly discipline myself? What has worked for you to start your weight loss journey? Anything helps, thank you for reading.
