HELP!! I NEED to get back on track!!

Hi - I haven't posted in forever.  I will be 4 years out Aug 22nd.  I lost just over 100 lbs and maintained at 155 for the first 21/2 years.  Then I crept up to 163ish & stayed there.  In the  last 6 months I stayed at @165.  In the last 2 weeks I have gained steadily till today I am at 174.8.  I swore I would never hit 160 again!  My life is pretty stressful right now - money & marriage problems. I am not eating that much at a time,  but am eating the wrong things.   I tend to eat little bits at a time until I finally am stuffed. I crave crunchy salty - so bbq chips are FAbulous! (not!!). I also am trying to wean off carbs. Doing all the wrong things, I know.  I need to get back on track! I wanted to be back in the 150s for a wedding this weekend, and have been trying for a month.  Seems like I am gaining daily.  Help!  I need encouragement & the board again (thought I could handle this on my own - yeah, right!).  Suggestions, please, before this gets any more out of control! Thanks!

Hello my friend. I feel for you - I'm having the same problem. I think the Plateau buster diet or the 5 day pouch test may be in order for you in order to detox from the carbs. 

My thoughts are with you,

You can do it!   Find another outlet for stress.  Remember that this is a powerful tool, but you have to use it.  Get back to basics and start focusing on protein options.  YOU can do this!!!

Enter your foods on The Daily Plate.   I had started mindless eating and the scale went up.   I started tracking my food and it is so sad to see how quickly I get to 800 calories!!!!   It's kinda a pain to do it, but I think it will get easier with time and will be so worth it when the scale moves back down.   
Good job coming to the boards for encouragement!!!!

I can relate.  Please keep on the boards so we can  comunicate!
