I live with my parents while saving money to make a big move next year. I lost 130lbs on my own and have gained back about 70 lbs in the last year and a half to two years.
That was my own fault...I changed jobs three times in a year and wore different uniforms (scrubs, real clothes, scrubs again) for each. It was a stressful time. Then I started teaching online and wear pajamas most of the time. The pajamas were from when I was at my heaviest so gaining wait didn’t register until it was too late. I had stopped weighing myself and didn’t realize.
Now I have been having a really hard time losing the weight again. I went up 20 lbs at the beginning of the year and lost 25 recently. Then I stalled and gained 10 back. Now I’ve been stalled again for almost 2 months. I keep making bad good decisions.
Every time I feel confident and like I’m doing good, I feel like my coworkers and family ruin it. I know it’s not reasonable to expect them to not eat things, but how can I make it easier on myself?
At home, there’s always chips, takeout, and terrible snacks. My dad always gets fast food and will buy food for me no matter how many times I ask him to not do it. I’ve tried nice, desperate, pleading, blunt and rude. Nothing works. He’s very overweight and I think he secretly likes that I gained some back. Now he’s not the only overweight person in the family anymore.
At work, there’s always candy, donuts, tacos, etc.
It’s ultimately up to me to say no and make good decisions, but I’m struggling. So far I have no solutions at home. I’ve started doing 12/12 intermittent fasting so I don’t eat anything at work. Instead, I take a nap in my car on my lunch break to avoid the food that’s there.
