After an insane 80 lb weightloss and a complete lifestyle transformation, I am now mentally stuck losing the same 10 pounds in 2021. I have been plateaued for 4 months now.
I still have 30 more pounds and while I can start to see the light at the end of the tunnel, it still seems miles away.
The thing is I did make lifestyle changes that I plan to keep for life. However, during weightloss, I need to eat on a deficit and earlier this year my body was so exhausted being in a deficit I decided to take a break and start eating at maintenance. My main issue rn is I can’t outrun a bad diet. I hit my 10k steps and I’ve started jump roping. But it’s the calories consumed. I’m gonna be brutally honest and say it’s not even because I’m genuinely hungry, I just mentally end up convincing myself to eat more.
The issue is I can’t seem to convince myself to return back to the deficit. I tried everything but everyday I track my calories in MFP and by the end of the day, I somehow manage to eat extra calories before I start intermittent fasting and eat at maintenance. I’m able to IF and rn I’m convinced it’s the only thing preventing me from gaining it all back.
I’ve tried everything. Inspiration. Discipline. But it’s such a struggle. If I do eat at a deficit for a few days, I end up eating at maintenance on the weekend.
TLDR: I’m still overweight and I still need to lose some more lbs but I’m mentally stuck. Please share what motivates you when all else seems to fail?
