That sucks. A lot of us have gained. I can't relate to the depression because I'm a happy fat girl even when I don't feel great about myself. Just keep doing it. I like jaybejay's idea. Don't tell yourself by day three you'll quit because you will. What about zigzagging your calories every few days so you still meet your intake goal but don't fret about a cookie? Also - have you considered lifting instead of being able to get in over 4000 steps? I rarely get 4000 steps. There are other things to do.

I know how you feel. I keep trying to get back on track and it isn't working. But I know if I keep trying it will start working again. At the beginning of the year I set a goal to lose 5 pounds a month and a goal of 15 pounds, thinking that would be easy enough and that after the 15 pounds I'd set another goal. So far I haven't lost anything this year. But March is another month, although we are almost halfway through it.

To everyone that feels stuck and are not logging your food intake, please start. If you can't make it to the gym, log your calories. If your carb intake is not where you want it to be, log your food. If you are not getting in all your steps, log what you eat. If you are snacking, grab your phone and log what you're are eating. If you feel that you are not on track, log your calories. It has been said is that more that 75% of weight loss is diet. IMHO, whatsoever way of eating you choose to pratice, log it and keep logging to get back and stay back on track...

Compassion, almost guaranteed with every big success comes a bad break. (sorry) Think of it like this: Imagine if you never shed 100 pounds, then broke your leg, then what? You may be looking at life in a wheel chair, but Nooooo, so saw/felt the need to fix it, before the fall, stay in the fight, effort and struggle, today is the day, and no C6 H12 O6 (all carbohydrates are just sugar) I hate it too.

Don’t beet yourself up. Start…were…you….are….at. Breath, you can start back intermittent fasting with that food injury. Can you stand? If so stand in place and do some reverse sit up and upper body workout…ect. You don’t want to gain those pounds back. Take it slow and won’t that more than the food. 😌👍🏾

Oh Tr3, sending virtual hugs. I'm glad you shared how you're feeling and doing with us, you're safe here. I agree with the others, log those calories diligently and in time the rest will fall back into place. ❤

Tr3, I feel you. All I can say is that, for me, the state of misery you find yourself in eventually led to repentance/turning around that led to the needle moving down instead of up. Unlike you, the onset of my misery didn't really start until I'd regained 80 or 90 lbs. Take heart because I believe your turnaround is near and you will have limited the damage. You are a trooper. Always here and faithful to post the truth. That means a lot to many of us. You got this!

Get back on that horse, young lady! Start with one thing. Cut out the desserts/simple carbs. You can exercise with your arms or yoga if you can't do much with your feet yet.
You obviously have the willpower and the ability because you have done it before. Trust in yourself.

I feel you!! Stress or the world energy has (or is) affecting us all. Stay here and try try again. We might have a day or two bad, but then we get back on the horse. Don’t want to sound cliché but you haven’t gained it all back. So slow and easy, if you have a bad day dust off and have a few good days. We can’t beat ourselves up, we have to be nice to ourselves. Trust me, I feel like I’m in a slump and just keep trying and trying to stay out of it. Yeap!!! Food is definitely my drug. Good luck and feel free to message me if you need or feel like eating. Distraction is always 😊 good

Flip that way of thinking and focus on that you've lost over 75 lbs and remind yourself about what you are doing. Many here have experienced what you're going through. Please don't add more stress on yourself by getting down on yourself. You have so much to be proud of, especially your relationship with people. Yes, taking care of yourself is important and treating yourself with compassion and understanding will lead to motivation and commitment to making your well-being a priority. We all have habits we need to let go of and others we need to adopt. Sending you love. 💗

I keep starting over also.🙃
Plus, I have to jump and sit in my jeans awhile to get them zipped!😞
I think if we just don’t gain any more and keep it where it’s at we’re OK! Let’s together just not gain more and keep it there.
Just trying to lose a itty bit at a time.♥️🌺
Lov ya Tr3!!!! 🌸👍💕

I just went through a situation like that felt like giving up and all but little mountain man looked at me and said hey don't be so hard on yourself this time so here I am back again with a whole new outlook

I totally agree with several who said "if you eat, it log it!" I have logged days that were over 3 times my calories for the day. I am accountable and that is my 1 NO COMPROMISE habit. Almost cried when I couldn't find my phone last week.
Be your own best friend. When negative thoughts invade, literally sit down in a special place and talk to your friend. You deserve to be your best self. 💞💞💞

Wowsers! Got me thinking now...
100lbs is my goal, and I was looking forward to reaching it so I can eat more again!
Glad you were open about it. Good heads up reminder for guys like me! Hmmm... Gotta re-think that I guess... Thanks!

Same battle going in here. Back pain prevented me from getting in the steps. I had been staying at half what my expected caloric intake was and maintaining my weight. I had surgery Jan 27th. While recouping I have gained. Sixteen pounds since the first of November. We need perseverance. Everyday use a chance for a fresh start😊

Oh Tr3...you are such a lovely person with such a warm and giving heart. Please be kind to YOURSELF. That doesn't mean to coddle or make excuses for the slip-ups, but it does mean to pat yourself on the back for EVERY little success! I agree that logging your food is #1 priority for getting back on track. Do you have a nutritional journal of some kind? There are free printable ones if you do a Google search. Keeping track can be more do-able with 'fun' pages to use😉🤗 💙

I’ve noticed a lot of people telling you to log all your food, and I agree. Maybe make that this weeks goal, you don’t have to wake up tomorrow and do everything you were doing to lose 100lbs (you obviously know how and what you have to do). Start logging, and then add 1 extra glass of water a day, until you are back up to a gallon. See where I’m going? Gradually, get yourself back to where you were, 1% better everyday, it will add up. As for the motivation, I’m not a fan, I prefer dedication, motivation comes and goes for all of us. Everyone falls, it’s how we pick ourselves back up. Progress not perfection… you got this. 👍🏻😊

So sorry to hear about your troubles. I know it's hard and I agree with Crystal. Your first priority is to get a plan that works for you. Make smaller goals for yourself and they become more achievable.Celebrate those goals!
As for foot surgery, I've had 2 serious surgeries. I got depressed because it took so long for me to heal. My foot Dr said it was because anything done with foot is one of the hardest healing places on body to heal and he said depression can be a side effect of how deep they have to put you under. (they had to cut bones in my surgery)
Everyday is a new day and you always have my support!!💜💜

At least you recognize your faults. Be honest & be real with yourself. You’ve dropped weight before & you can do it again! Let’s start by quitting the sugary snacks 💪
