Had trouble eating leftover chicken fajitas with miracle noodles yesterday but no such trouble eating popcorn and a piece of apple pie with cheese. And cheese bread with butter. Thus the gain again. Clearly what I am choosing to eat is not getting me to goal. I am now 6# from my next goal of getting below 220. I really need to treat my addiction to food. When I plan and track, I become obsessed with eating. I feel so much better when I do limited time interval eating. Choosing is still difficult. Right now I have cooked chickem, meatloaf and hamburger with chhese prepared. I also have frozen Normandy vegetables, and fresh lettuce, spinach, bell peppers, onions oranges, grapefruit and apples.So a reasonable meal would be hamburger, onion, bell pepper, lettuce and an orange for dessert. There is also a frozen Chicken McGriddle--not a good weight loss option. GOD has given me the gift of choice. He says "choose life". "Choose this day whom you will serve." What will I choose today? Before even finishing this post I was offered a McGriddle by my family and feel good about refusing it and them. GOD help me, please. I need Your help. Guide my steps. Help me put off the weights that are slowing me down as I continue this race of life today. It is a battle. I so hate fighting and conflict--especially the battle within me. I need You to win.

I understand your battle. I had many days, weeks, months like that. I am hoping that I have turned a corner on it at least for a while. I just go through periods where I eat everything even if I don't care for it, then I go out and buy other things. I went to the store this morning and bought food on my woe and prepared some meals BUT I've been eating all day. Food that is on my woe BUT still that is not a good plan for me.

I empathize so much!!!!
At my worst, I could pound a bag of Tostitos and two jars of queso, all within an hour. And then I’d eat my regular meals, and Starbucks, and and and...
What has helped me is intermittent fasting, and by eliminating breakfast I have enough calories to make bigger and more filling portions of lunch and dinner. Drinking tea has also helped curb my instinct to munch while reading, watching tv, or driving. That, and drinking water. Maybe one of those can help?
I also don’t have foods I can’t eat. My brain just freaks out when I say I can’t have something ever again, or think “my diet doesn’t let me 😢.” What I do instead is think, “do I have enough calories left in my day to have a satisfying portion?” Sometimes the answer is yes, and on those days I might eat bagel bites, or a chocolate bar, or ice cream. If the answer is, “nope, I can only eat 1/3 of a slice of brownie”, then I tell myself maybe tomorrow.
Additionally, I’d also research some low-cal alternative recipes to your favorite dishes- I know I’m a pizza addict, so I found a nice frozen pizza with cauliflower crust that can usually fit into my day. Planning ahead like that makes it easier to not fall off the wagon. Anyway, I hope this all didn’t sound too pretentious.
I sincerely hope you succeed at your goals! We all are cheering you on- you can do this!!!
