You've posted of struggles the last few days. The scale is unlikely to be kind until you've managed to string together a goodly number of good days. What do you need to do to make that happen? What would that look like for you?
I'm a librarian, so here are some book recommendations:
The End of Overeating by David Kessler really helped me see how the food industry manipulates foods to make them irresistible. I was able to use the disgust, anger, and sheer stubbornness to go cold turkey off junk food after reading that book.
The books by Judith Beck helped me set up structures and change my environment to make it easier to succeed at this. She says the reason we all fail at diets is because we were never taught how to do it well. Her books remedy that. If you read and like one of her books, there's a support forum here on 3FC where we work with them.

Discouraged
I'm sorry it's got you down but I completely understand the "saying it out loud" biz. If you get it out, you don't have to carry the stress by yourself. Water, sodium and the raunchy rouge can bump up the scale every time.
