I'm bad with titles, forgive me-- but I'm having trouble staying on track. I have been sitting at 215 pounds for the last 3 months. But in the last week, I've devoted a large portion of my time to exercising. Though I'm still at 215... and the problem is, I eat like garbage. I don't really eat a lot honestly. I'll starve myself the whole day because depression gets the best of me, then at night I binge a baked potato and ramen and a bag of steamed broccoli or something. All 3. Then later I'll snack on cheerios. I really have no self control there and I'm struggling to find any help anywhere with that. I also have struggled in the past on keeping up with excercise. I mainly do it to combat my mental illnesses, and short term for me it really does help, but so does eating. I'm only 5'7 so being at this weight for me is extremely uncomfortable. I have no motivation, really. My goal is 150 if I'm being honest. That weight was the best I ever felt. But that was 2 years ago. Recently, I've been 180-200. It's slightly less uncomfortable than now, but not good enough for me. I was only 150 because of the meds I was on though, and they were terrible for me so I had them discontinued. My routine of excercise has been 2 miles of walking a day, one in the morning one at night. Throughout the day I'd find time to do a few sets of sit ups and squats, lift weights while watching TV casually. I have been on a three day break, though, after attending a funeral on Thursday morning. But this morning I'm going to push the miles to two in the morning and two at night for the next week then wind back down. But right now I'm starving for a baked potato, going to try my best to not eat one though because it's almost 4am...
