Gained all my weight back. How do I come back from this?

I’m so ashamed of myself. I (18F, 5’2”) reached a peak weight of 221lbs (100.5kg) in April 2022, and finally got motivated to lose weight when I saw the pictures from my senior prom. Between May and August, I lost 25lbs (11kg) and got down to 196lbs (89kg), and I was so proud of myself. Then in September, I got a job at a grocery store. I was spending hours surrounded by food, and now had my own money, so I had the ability to buy whatever food I wanted. I couldn’t resist, and would just splurge and buy so much shitty sweet food, and I binged on it almost every day. The temptations along with depression and other emotional issues made my relationship with food even worse than it was before I lost the weight. I quit that job last week, and decided that I needed to take control of my health and my diet again. I stepped on the scale the next day after not doing so in months, only to find out that I am back up to 219lbs (99.5kg). I’m so disgusted. I’ve started a diet again, but its harder than it was before and I feel so discouraged now that I have to do all of my progress over again. Does anyone have any tips for staying motivated and not getting discouraged by such a setback? Thank you!
