Hi! I'm 28 yo, 5'10" and weigh around 200 pounds. Ever since I went through some personal issues around 5 years ago, I resorted to food as comfort. I struggled with my self image my whole life, I always thought I was fat and I liked eating sweets, but I was always around ~140-150 pounds, never more. Ever since my mom died and I went through a breakup, my mental health has suffered a bit and I kept stuffing my face to make me feel better. The problem is, it's been like 5-6 years, and I gained about 60 pounds from all the binge eating. I eat enormous quantities of food, then I regret it and feel so ashamed. I went to a nutritionist, she gave me a plan which consisted of a low fat diet (one day I eat only fruits and veggies, the other day protein and some carbs), and I managed to stick to it for a month, losing 10 pounds. I then got sick and tired of the diet and lost interest in my goal. I tried going keto, I just can't seem to do a clean keto. I ate no sugar or carbs for a month, I saw no results so I quit. You probably get the idea. No matter what I try, I am never consistent. I try about a month, and then I quit. I think about the fact that I want to lose weight every single second that I'm awake, I talk to other people about my addiction to sugar, but I just can't seem to be motivated enough to do something about it. I tried telling myself that it's really bad for my health, I do feel so heavy and hot during summer, I hate the way my fatty arms feel against my skin, but I just can't seem to follow through the plan and stick to it. How did you guys do it? It's been 5 years of telling myself every night that tomorrow is gonna be the day and I will change my ways. 5 FREAKING YEARS. I'm actually in a point where I'm mentally tired from all of this and I am so disappointed in myself. Please share some tips, maybe I will actually start doing something this time, instead of pitying myself
