Once, OK. Twice, understandable. Three times, six times—getting pretty frustrated. More than this—you have a chronic problem. Whatever you do, you just can’t lose unwanted weight.
Diagnosis: Treatment refractory weight loss
In other words, you failed to respond to the usual forms of treatment—dieting, cutting portion size, practice not eating so much, using more willpower, following doctor’s orders, being part of a support group.
Looks like nothing can be done about it, because of all that you tried, and all the times you failed.
Helping someone in your shoes to have successful weight loss is going to require a transformation—from someone who can’t to someone who can take charge of her eating and weight.
This will call for careful attention to what’s been going wrong psychologically for you. Repeated failure is an indication that something needs to be brought to your attention, so you can see it for what it is and then learn to work on it so it’s not in the way.
Try doing it this way and see what you come up with. If you would like professional help, set up an appointment with a mental health professional.
