I don't know why I can't seem to get back on track. Every morning I start off ok but by the evening I have this urger to eat everything within arms reach. I wonder if I had the surgery just to have it? I feel like I should be locked in a room and fed through a slot in the door and not let out til I reach my goal.

I wish I could go to a therapist but my insurance doesn't cover it. Thank you for the hug guess today is just one of those days for me.

We all have those days. It's a struggle, for sure. You just have to keep trying, no matter how many times you fall. I'm just beginning to string "good days" together again. I've been "off track" for several weeks, but I know I can do this -- never give up the ship!

For me, getting back on track after being off for more than a week or so, is very hard. I get into the mentality of "I'll do it tomorrow" which is a variation of I'll go back on my diet on Monday, 1st of next month, New Years, and on and on.

Are you trying to do too much? Maybe take one of your habits, such as grazing or eating too many carbs, and work on just that one. When you create momentum of even a couple of days, it propels us to continue on.

If you decide on grazing, stop grazing for that day, then the next up to 3 weeks or a month. After you've got one habit down, move on to the next one you want to change. If stopping to graze is too big, make your goal not to graze after Noon or some specific time.

I've had two (yes, two, not just one but TWO) periods of regain. Breaking down being on track into more manageable habits worked for me. It was way too overwhelming otherwise.

That's really good advice Cathy. I'm in a similar place as she is, and that idea is something I can use for sure! I graze too, that is the one I want to work on the most. Thanks!
