Sort of a rant but I’m also really looking for some solid advice or critique!
Until about 2 weeks ago, everything was going swimmingly. I had the modest calorie deficit, losing not perfectly but consistently 1-3 pounds a month, down 45 in the last couple years! I was long past the point of trying to find motivation, I had the discipline, was basically on autopilot cooking usually healthy meals and hitting the gym after work. Until...out of absolutely nowhere, I haven’t stuck to my calorie limit for weeks now. I’m still tracking it, even if it’s only the day after. But I just seem to suddenly be so out of the groove. It wasn’t even a holiday indulgence gone wrong - I navigated Thanksgiving and Christmas just fine, and was feeling really proud of how much I’ve accomplished this year. Now, I’m going over my calories for the day before lunchtime!
What happened? Has this ever happened to anyone else? I’m so confused right now. I was literally just 15 pounds away from my goal and thought I had the new lifestyle thing down pat. I didn’t miss stuffing my face at all house and not caring what I was eating. So I just can’t figure out why my old habits resurfaced with a vengeance. I know EXACTLY what to do, because I’ve been doing it for years. Why can’t I suddenly not do it?

Edit: And my other problem: I did the clothes purge when I went from a size 16 to a 2/4. Now I’m rapidly gaining out of all my pants and I’m stuck wearing my husband’s clothes. Figure out how to get my butt back in gear and get back down to size? Or suck it up and buy bigger ones again?
