I’ve (46F, 5’4”) weighed 180 for a good 5 years. I’ll be really good about tracking calories and exercising and then life hits, my anxiety level is high for several days and I fall off the wagon. I fall off because I’m so in my head that any effort to make healthy food is “too much” for me. I reach for anything easy and sugar satisfies the most. Exercising doesn’t even cross my mind because I’m so preoccupied. Then the shame and anxiety about gaining the weight back and feeling so dysfunctional and hopeless sets in for several more days. I’ll be in this place for a few weeks, finally get myself to snap out of it, but now I’ve undone any previous progress and I’m back at square one. I’m in therapy and take an anxiety med, so I’m doing what I can on that front. Does anyone else relate? Any advice on what I can do to stay on track with CICO and exercise when anxiety hits in the future?
