A little background first. I started really committing to bettering my life and health back in September 2018. Back then I was 420 lbs. Since then I have been counting calories, measuring my food, and tracking just about everything I put in my body. Today I am 305 lbs. I was hoping to get into the 200s before Thanksgiving, but I don’t think that will happen. Since I began I had a several hiccups along the way, but I was always able to overcome them and move past it. However, lately it’s been more of a struggle than ever. A couple weeks ago I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, I don’t know much about it, but my doctor said it could be part of the reason for the recent struggles. But now I take medication so things should be better. I think the struggle is a build up of a lot of things, the diagnosis, trying to find a job, the scale not going down like it used to. And in the morning when I weigh myself and I see the number not move or go up it just brings out so much anger that I never had before. Sorry, I’m rambling now. Basically, would it help my mental health to just take a break for a week and just not track food or weigh myself, or would that make it worse when I come back in a week and the weight is up and I feel even more helpless? Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance!
