As the title says I have trouble dealing with the effects of maintaining has on my mental health. I've been trying to ignore the voice inside my head for a while now but it won't go away. Making my story short, I'm 26 and started losing weight 14 months ago. I'm 173 cm's tall and weighed in at 128 kg, current weight is 84 kg.
I'm not 100% satisfied yet and I want to lose another 5 maybe 10 (max) kg. However, after eating at a deficit for over a year and going really hard with training 5 days a week I decided to just chill for a bit, try to maintain. I haven't used any apps to count calories while maintaining but im constantly counting in my head so I have a rough estimate of how much I'm eating and so far I havn't gained or lost anything, so I guess that's going fine. However, inside my head there's this other part of me that feels disgust and feels like im going back to old habits and throwing out all my hard work, even tho I have yet to gain a single kilo.
I'm guessing part of this is cause I went quite hard on the deficit, I started of by going down to 1500 and just stayed there since it worked fine for me. But now when I eat what would be considered normal I just feel like im eating SO MUCH, even tho I'm maintaining and not gaining.
I dunno this turned out a bit longer than expected and not sure if I could get my point across as well as I wanted to initially but I hope anyone can relate, just feeling lost out here at the moment and struggling, and it sucks.
