I’m ver sorry for your sorrow. This is an especially hard time of year. Remember, you have not failed unless you QUIT. Do the best you can to get things back under control. If you are able to arrange for counseling of some type, please give it a try. Stay here through thick or thin— you need the support.

Here is a saying I have taped to my computer at work:
The gate to happiness is self-compassion.

I agree with what Kenna Morton said. Hang in there, you are recognizing what is going on so that is success.

Sounds like some things in your life are really hard right now. Maybe don't beat yourself up so much and remember that tomorrow is a new day.

You need a deep breath, take one day at a time, affirmations work for me. Love yourself and love will follow 🤗

I can attest to those feelings. I try to keep my mind busy by either reading, playing stupid games on microsoft network, and internet searches for anything that comes to mind. I too have depression of the suicidal persuasion.

We all stumble, sometimes we fall, sometimes it takes a little longer to get back up! As Kenna said, you only fail when you quit.
You have a beautiful daughter and you have lost almost 150#, these are only 2 of your Successes.
Sometimes life seems to kick you when you are down. Know that you are stronger than you know. We are all in this together. Don't Give up!

oh wow Sister. this is a page from my journal too. I do the same crap. but you know what? we just have to keep moving forward. whether a stumble is one bad meal, one bad day or a bad month -- we get up and start making good choices again. tracking our food and trying to get some exercise in. I recently lost the use of my legs with a statin related Horrible side effect and the panic and fear was just almost unbearable. but HERE I AM. surviving. and literally crawling my way back to health. I'm better than I was and quitting is not an option. I'm gonna keep going girlfriend. And so are you!! thank you for sharing. I don't feel so alone while struggling so hard.

You articulated feelings that I go through, need to find a method that works to keeping focused on the long-term outcome instead of the short term situation. I need this in the worst way.

You’re strong you can do this! Just don’t give up, do little steps at a time and you’ll get there! I had few days where I just ate whatever I wanted, but it’s ok I’ll just go back on my path and keep on doing what I was doing before. Stay strong💪🏻. Have a beautiful day.😃

Sorry for this belated response but I am just now seeing your post from before the holidays. Glad things seem to be better with your more recent posts. Anyway just wanted to pass something along that may help. I’m not a health professional but I have been participating in some online programs offered by registered dieticians. In the one I just went to the lady said that stress actually causes us to crave those high fat salty foods. So it is not about being weak. I know you have a lot going on but maybe this will help you understand what is happening. Blessings to you and and the little one.

I know I'm late to the party, but I just found this post from 3 months ago & it resonates with me too. FS doesn't let me copy paste so I took a screenshot of what you wrote to remind myself I'M not alone feeling the same way!
I really hope you're doing better now.
