Hello,
So I am a healthy weight, well im in the recommended BMI bit with 21.74.
However I am unhappy with the way I look after a stressful year, and havent done any of the exercise i used to and have been eating badly so I have put on weight to my current BMI, where as I used to be about 10 stone 5.
Hard getting back into but the exercise is going well, its just the diet!!??
I do well for about 2 weeks or so, losing quite a bit, then I go travelling down to my old place, friends and boyfriends and get really tired, or everyone comes over to mine and we are cooked unhealthy meals which I just can't refuse in front of everyone else. Thats not the main worry, but when I'm tired and travelling about and feeling a bit sad about leaving old friends and boyfriend behind, its like something lets go and I say "oo just have a bit of chocolate, you need the energy", and then it just escalates til I find all day I'm doing nothing and eating rubbish food which I used to love when I was young and deny myself of now.
For instance this weekend I went back and went out, then travelled back the next day for a 12-9 shift and then a 10-6 shift the next day, and found I was so tired I woke up just wanting to eat loads and relaxing with a good book, so much so til I felt sick, and no interest in cooking nice food. I even have healthy snacks, but I am bored of them and eating an entire box of poptarts seem the better option!! This is not healthy and have probably put on all the weight I've lost.
I want to eat healthily long term and keep to a good weight like I did before but it seems so hard especially moving about so much now, and just think, oo lose the weight for summer, and obviously its a good idea to have a goal but then its something that is good to keep forever, to keep healthy, but that seems quite depressing that I have to limit my very sweet tooth and can't have massive pigout days (probably a good idea not to really, theyre so unproductive)...its a surprise I'm not overweight with all the sweet stuff I like and I know if I let myself go every day with food I most definitley would be overweight!! Maybe I should get diet pills??gah!
Please help.
Thanks
