Hi all. I regained some weight I took off last year. My pants and jog bras feel too tight currently. Honestly, I feel like a stuffed sausage with the added weight gain. I sleep more and it is harder to move around. I want to lose 120 lbs. I am changing my focus...

So instead of being obsessive with calories, maintaining a calorie deficit, my focus this year is getting stronger and healthier. My intention in 2025 is on building discipline with focus.

I want to learn these skills in 2025:

• Discipline
• Consistency
• Mental Toughness
• Grit
• Belief of I can!
• Fortitude
• Confidence
• Self-Esteem
• Self-love
• Self-compassion
• Work Ethic
• Better completed self-care, daily

I attended an inpatient/ outpatient ED Clinic for my Binge Eating Disorder. Just trying to find a new normal with the food.
I needed to get this out.

What is your vision or mission for your weight loss?

Good luck everyone.

Instead of getting the dopamine hit from the food, I am focusing on the high of "making the right choice" and letting this be my new dopamine hit. It is really hard sometimes, yet I can't imagine not reaching my goal this year.
I refuse to be morbidly obese at the end of the year. This is in our circle of control--I must make this happen. Time passes and I do not want to face any more negative health consequences. We always can dig deeper. Good luck!

Good luck in achieving your goals. Everything will work out!

I can see you losing 120 lbs. Good luck on your weight loss journey.
