To be pleased to have been saved from the upward spiral ?

[lBrock]

I don't know if anyone can relate. A few years ago my weight was on an upward spiral and I couldn't do anything to stem it. Luckily a good, happy, unforeseen event happened which helped me get my weight thankfully back under control.

Does anyone agree it's awful when you're on the upward spiral with your weight isn't it and not in the mindset to control it

What is your aibu?

Good point ! Just I was so desperate to get out of upward weight gain spiral

What was the event?

I don’t know what you mean really ? Do you mean when things aren’t going great generally you take less physical care of yourself in which case yes I agree and yes it sucks

Meeting my now DP. I had lost a lot of weight and hadn't put it all back on - but when I met him I had been on an overeating spiral fir about 2 weeks and had let my exercise plan go etc ... met him and curbed this very quickly - went on to lose more weight - winner winner !!

Well the thing is things had been going well as if lost 3 and a half stone in weight in 5 months. Then I had the option of a nice unexpected rest day after several days of hard work - and then I treated myself to food as a frat that day abs for the next fortnight I couldn't stem this eating pattern

Well there were lots of things you could have done tbh.

Pleased you're on top of things now - it's not easy.
