Fallen off the wagon…

[Starlightstargazer]

I’ve had a huge problem with emotional eating over the last few years leading me to gain a lot of weight and become obese.
i started mounjaro at the start of May, had a really good month on 2.5mg. Upped to 5mg and I’m back into my emotional eating again. Things have been really hard and stressful at home and I’m going back to my old self. I do t seem to have any self control again like I did on the 2.5
So cross with myself for going back to previous ways

You may find your next dose of 5mg helps to reset and get the emotional earring under control again. Don’t beat yourself up about it, it takes a long time to reset old habits especially if you are under a lot of stress. We will all have bumps on the road, which is all this is. It’s not the end of your journey or any kind of permanent issue. Things haven’t gone how you wanted, but things will change in the future and you will get to where you want to be.

Plan.
I find planning meals a week in advance helps a lot.

Don't beat yourself up.
Beating yourself up just makes you feel shit and a failure. You had a hiccup you didn't kill anyone.

Dust yourself down and start a new day.
Exactly that ...Start the new day afresh. You can't change history, just the future. Start again today.

Best of luck😀

There will be bumps on the road, but you’re on the right road now.

Thanks all x

Another vote for being kind to yourself.

I found the approach taken by Gillian Riley really helpful to control my eating. Hope you find what works for you.

I would go back to 2.5 tbh, if it was working, not need to change.
