I used to eat a very restricted diet (for a health problem). I ate the same meal 3 times a day every day. Chicken with vegetables. That's all. I never cheated on the diet, not once in over 2 years.
My health problem improved and I started to add in new foods, and did not suffer symptoms. So I kept eating new foods. It got to the point where I can eat anything. This is great for my health.
The issue is that somewhere along the line I decided to basically do the opposite as before. Instead of eating a very restrictive diet that consisted of very healthy foods, I now eat everything and anything including all kinds of garbage like chocolate, muffins, etc.
I've gone from one extreme to the next. I have gained 20 lbs I want to lose. I also feel like my sugar intake is really high, and I am no longer eating balanced meals. I have no control with portions anymore, I will just eat a huge chocolate bar in one sitting and loads of jam on toast in the next.
I cannot stand gaining weight anymore. I cannot look at myself in the mirror anymore. I am 5'5 and 140 lbs and I'm not fat, but I looked incredible and felt incredible at 120. It's like I just have ZERO desire for vegetables and chicken anymore. All I want to eat is granola, chocolate, and other foods that are doing nothing for me. The sugar makes me feel dizzy often too. What do I do? How do I find a good balance and still allow myself to eat things I like? How do I get on track with losing the weight?
