re: Mental struggle while going for weight loss (Update pt2 page 3)

I’m severely struggling with the mental side of things. Struggle with drinking on weekends, which leads to fast food. It’s not happening as often anymore, though.

Every day is a new day. Forgive yourself for mistakes. Make better decisions today.

As another said, set small goals. Maybe you want to lost 15 lbs, Celebrate losing 3, then 6, then 9. Hell you may lose 3, gain 1 back, then lose 2. That's life.

Slow and steady wins the race. If you lose 1/2 a pound a week, you'd lose 25 lbs this year. That just means a calorie deficit of 1750 calories a week over 7 days.
