I know the feeling! I'm in the same boat as you right now. But if you fall off the wagon, you pick yourself up and get right back on it again and put it behind you. Unfortunately real life means we're surrounded by temptations, think of this as a lifestyle change rather than a diet, where you CAN indulge every once in a while. So what I do is, I work a treat into my daily calorie allowance so I don't feel deprived, also if I do go over or fall off the wagon I work that much harder in the gym.
It could be that calorie counting just isn't the right diet for you, there are hundreds of diets out there that you might find easier to stick to e.g. weight watchers, where you have a support group either online or at meetings.
If you're still struggling, I found having a motivational pic helps, and an item of clothing I want to slim into helps. My final tip is to write a list of why you want to lose weight, they can be anything, whether its health/vanity/family related etc and keep it with you so you can refer back to it if you feel yourself weakening.
Good luck!! you can do it, all of us fatchicks are here with help and support whenever you need it.
