I'll start out by saying that I'm very familiar with the rules of weight loss and strongly advocate CICO. I've tried most diets under the sun and over the last 10 years have gained about 100 pounds. Last year I had a baby and I'm up to my highest weight of 315 at 5'9". I'm at the point where I just don't think I can diet anymore. The counting, weighing, and tracking - I'm way past burnout and I feel like each attempt at weight loss puts another 5-10 pounds on me eventually. I WANT to succeed but it feels like my brain/body won't let me. I've been reading about intuitive eating but I feel like that's only for people who are in recovery from ED with an emphasis on undereating, even though I love the general principles. I'm hoping for any advice from someone who has felt the same as me. I want to diet and workout but my drive just isn't there, and I'm scared it never will be. I don't want to be fat forever.
Additionally, I am seeing a therapist to work through some food based issues and I've tried several antidepressants without any luck yet this year. Just in case those are suggested. TIA.
