What was different between all the failed attempts and your successful one?

I really need to lose weight because it’s starting to affect my health which is terrifying. I’ve struggled with my weight all my life going back and forth between healthy and overweight but I’m now morbidly obese. I’ve lost weight in the past but I was a teenager (25 now) and was motivated by the way I looked. That doesn’t seem to matter to me anymore and I’m struggling to lose weight.

I’ve been trying for the last 3 years with no luck. I start, do well for a few days and then fall off. I’m an emotional eater so I eat when I have a good day as a reward and I eat when I have a bad day to make myself feel better. I have started making meals that are balanced and healthier than what I normally eat (high fibre, high protein, homemade, more veggies etc). I am just scared that when I start, I’m going to crave sweet treats and I won’t be able to control myself. If I want ice cream for example, I wouldn’t be able to just have a few scoops id end up eating the entire thing so it’s probably best for me to stay away from foods like that until I have better control or fewer cravings.

What was different this time from all the failed attempts? What did you do when you craved something that would send you down a spiral? Were there any small things you did to make weight loss easier?
