Hi Trevor - do you have the option of seeing a therapist to help you address the comfort eating?

I drink lots of water too
but I don't take enough exercise and I think that is why I gained a few pounds over the past 6 months.
I weighed 90kg on the 28/02/18 and yesterday 08/08/18 I weighed 90.6 kgs
which was sad but it just reminds me that I need to get a hold of my eating and be more active but I'm also dealing with depression so it is difficult.
Yesterday I saw my GP and he weighed me and as I expected my weight increased from 90 kgs to 90.6kgs which is just over 14 stone.
I want to lose some weight but at the moment I find it hard because I tend to eat for comfort if that makes sense?
I also eat with a degree of anxiety
meaning I tend to buy more food and cook it to ensure I feel full but then I often find that either I can't eat it all and then it goes to waste or I eat it and feel bloated and guilty after but I keep repeating the same pattern again.
Hi Liz,
I'm fairly new although I've been a member since 2003 and I recently activated my account.
I'm trying to lose weight as well but unfortunately, I gained a few pounds over the past few months and I want to try and lose some soon.
I tend to eat for comfort and then I get guilt trips when I overeat and it has become a negative cycle which I want to break but I'm so used to eating to comfort myself and reduce anxiety.
It sounds strange but this is what I'm dealing with.

Just keep focused on your goal Marion and try not to let anything hold you back.
If you want something enough You'll find a way to get it.
I've been where you started in terms of excess weight, heavy smoking.
I beat the latter but I'm still working on the former.
My ideal weight is 190 pounds and
I'm currently 240 and I'm 5ft 5 or 3 I'm not too sure?
I am sure about wanting to lose weight though but unfortunately saying it isn't as easy as making it happen.
I managed to get down to 190 but I gained it again over the past 6 years.

Hi,
I'm new to the boards and currently 20 months out from my D/S surgery. Doing pretty well and surpassed my three year goal at 18 months and I'm at my "wish goal" as of yesterday. Now my GP would like me to lose more weight... I told him I was staying on the program until I was two years out and whatever weight I was, I would be happy with it. My stats are as follows.
HW 6/6/16 #398.89 BMI 67.4
SW 11/29/16 #356 BMI 60.2
CW 0723/18 #170 BMI 27.1
I'm currently still doing very low carb, high protein, lots of water, walking and hitting the gym three times a week.
Thanks,
Liz
HW: 398.8 SW:356 GW: 175 CW:147
I had kind of forgotten about this board. I have been slowly creeping in the right direction... I tend to stay the same for several weeks and then have a small loss. This far out any loss is OK.
4 yrs. Post-op.
Highest weight: 420+
Surgery consult: 383

I didn't actually weigh myself this morning, but I'll get us going anyway. I had a bad weekend so my weight is up because of that - I let myself get super dehydrated on Friday due to some stomach thing, and then I ended up eating all the carbs over the weekend to make myself feel better. Because that totally makes sense, eh?
HW: 319
LW: 159.4
TW (yesterday): 158.6
Next goal: making my signature honest - 149!
I was 156.2 on Saturday, but I'm pretty sure that was due to very bad dehydration more than actual weight.
How about you all? Any weekly weighers around?
