The holidays are increasingly hard for me as I lost my mother to cancer 4 years ago and her birthday is the day after Christmas. My binge eating increases when I'm struggling through an episode of depression. I've been trying to limit to things within my calorie goal but that's not always happening. I've been feeling that after lunch slump again that had gone away when I started on this journey. Also the whole recall on veggies things has really gotten to me because I was relying on that. I also still haven't been drinking enough water and I'm also feeling the effects of that too. I'm so frustrated with myself because I know I can overcome this but that stupid depression and anxiety crap get in my way. UGH!

Hey! Water weight comes and goes. Are you talking to someone about your depression? I've been there and it's horrible.

@FourWheelDrive - Yeah, it's still frustrating to see the scale go up and down. I am in therapy for the depression. :)

Sorry to hear about your mother. This time of year can be very difficult with the loss of a loved one. My mom just left to go see my brother in another state and she ended up in the hospital with gallbladder issues and just had her gallbladder removed. It brought up so much fear of losing my mom, that I didn't realize was there. It made me want to binge so bad... and after having been off my keto for over a month, I had just gotten back on the wagon. So, I made myself a low carb/keto cheesecake and I allowed myself to eat the whole thing over a period of 3 days. I didn't judge myself... I just let it be. It was what I needed and I consciously allowed it and it kept me on the wagon. I guess what I'm saying is, you gotta do what you gotta do to make it through. And once you're through it, you'll do better. But go easy on yourself. We do the best we can in every moment. The recall on the veggie thing has been a bummer. I get a rotisserie chicken and iceburg lettuce and make a chicken lettuce wrap out of that. I love the crunch and the mayo is so yummy! I also make chocolate whipped cream when I need a sweet. I know how you feel about the depression and anxiety. That was me for a couple decades. Just know- it gets better and You can do this! Good luck!🍀
