@emmaa.getsfitt: I spent a long time thinking that weight loss was supposed to feel like this. Weight loss meant always starting over, always tightening things up, always feeling like I needed to get back on track after doing something “wrong,’ 
I was always thinking about food, thinking about my body, planning the next reset, telling myself next week would be bette. It kind of became my new normal and I didn’t realize how heavy it was until I wasn’t living in that mindset anymore. Getting out of this cycle meant stopping the constant swing between being super strict and completely burnt out. It looked more like letting food be regular again, eating enough even on days you don’t feel “on it,” building meals you actually like instead of ones you’re forcing yourself through, and choosing habits you can still do when you’re tired, busy, stressed, or unmotivated. It means not resetting every time you have a normal human day, and not punishing yourself for eating like a person.
