How do you do this after a gain?

I need some serious good graces here. How do you keep going on a weight loss journey once you've gained weight? It makes me so angry that I did, and I know it's a journey of ups and downs. But, how can I keep from getting so discouraged that I give up? When I see a number higher than last time, it's really hard to want to keep going.. :(

How often are you weighing? I know when I have a bad food day, it can take up to a week to undo the bad that I did. So easy to put on, so hard to take off!

I know its hard but we have to keep going! What's the alternative? Gaining more weight!! Staying miserable!!! You have to push thru the bad and wait for the good to happen. If you stay dedicated, the good will happen!!!

Message me whenever you want, we can do this together! I believe in you!!

I just try not to think about the gain and keep focused on doing what I need to do. It will even out, our bodies go through fluctuations all the time. Try not to get discouraged! Hang in there!

Focus on changes. Weightloss is a learning experience and what works for one doesnt work for all make reachable goals. Its always hard to see a gain. But try to understand it happens and moving passed is what helps you to attain a bigger goal.
