deep down I KNOW that I want to lose weight, but everyday the motivation is gone until nighttime when I’m filled with regret and promise myself that I will get back on track tomorrow.

I’m looking for some advice. It’s hard because I feel like I’ve said everything to myself that I can think of to motivate myself. I lost 40 pounds in the past, then I gained it all back and I have wanted to lose the weight for years.

I don’t know why it’s so hard for me. I’m frustrated because I’ve done it before; I’ve stayed in a calorie deficit and worked out, and I stayed focused and held myself accountable all day.

But now I feel like my brain has been retired somehow. It feels like I have completely no motivation all day no matter how hard I try to force myself to be motivated. In the morning I have a plan for my day, but around afternoon I just don’t care at all and will over eat. Then at night time is when I feel regret and promise myself a better day tomorrow. I’ve been living like this for years, I feel like I’m reaching a breaking point and I’m going insane :(
