Struggles to maintain weight loss

6’2” 44yr male, in 2013 i went from 289# to 189#

Slowly I began to gain weight, maintained 200-220# until 2016 or so. Job change, long hours, totally fell off the wagon until Jan 2020 when i weighed in 277#. Began to clean up the diet and work out, weight started coming off then Covid and started working from home. Weight fell off easily till June i weighed in at 185# my lowest weight since maybe 5th grade.

Then the slide began I’m back up to 220# and clothes are tight again. I know what i need to do, but the day in day out consistency is so damn hard. For months it was just part of my day now i just don’t have the energy or drive.

Reading other people’s successes is great and i just wanted to say congratulations to those getting it done and thanks for sharing. I hope to get back on the right side of scale soon.

For those struggling take it day to day. Celebrate your wins, don’t beat yourself when you slide. Every day is an opportunity to try again.
