Question for you all.
I have lost about 82 ish lbs. My highest ever was 320 and I am now 238. I know in the past I have had little "freak outs" like how do I be thin? how do I look good? how do I handle the attention? I was losing weight easily last year then around the time I went back to school stalled, gained 15 lbs at xmas and lost it plus an additional 5 since the end of january. However, I find myself overeating, exercising but not having the willpower to resist temptation like before. I have rarely eaten within cals in the last 2 mos, granted I have had a lot going on, school, moving, etc. Still, I know I can do this, I know I know how to do this. Could it be psychological that I keep hitting these barriers? I have been in the high 230's since the beginning of april, even gone up into the 240's and back down again. Am I psyching myself out for failure? has anyone else had this problem? my bf weighed 20 bs more than me when we met then started losing weight with me and now weighs 10 lbs less than me, without any effort at all and eating twice as much as me. I know that is because every person is different and he is a guy. but I wonder, is it just me in my head that is presenting these barriers to myself?
sorry I know it is long. Thanks for reading and your replies.
