Over the past year I've lost 13 pounds. Then my mom fell ill and I took care of her as she was dying. My diet sort of fell apart -- lots of junk food and very few vegetables. There wasn't a lot of organic stuff in their grocery stores in my hometown, and also I didn't want to spend time cooking. I gained back all the weight I'd lost.
After sorting out all the details to close her estate, I came back home and worked really had to lose those 13 pounds all over again. In october, I succeeded. I was so excited because I was only 8 lbs from having to use a cpap, and I was close to my GW 120. (I'm F 5'1") . Then, inexplicably, I gained half of it back. My bathroom scale needed new batteries so it's possible it wasn't giving me accurate numbers previously, but I know my clothes fit differently and people even remarked on it, so I'm pretty sure I really did lose the weight.
It was weird how fast it happened. Like 3 pounds a week! And I didn't know what I'd done differently. I'm afraid of starting again and failing again. Another thing is that I sleep a lot. Like most days I"m only awake for about 8 hours. I had a check up last summer and everything was fine.
I don't know how to encourage myself anymore. I feel like this is hopeless and I can't think of any solutions. Please help!
