Bit of background: 12 months ago I lost over 10 kg so as to be referred for IVF.

At start of march my dad was ill and sadly passed away 17 days after.

During that time and subsequently after I put on 7kg. A combination of take aways crap convenience food and emotional overeating.

I had call to start I VF. I managed to loose a 1.5 kg but was over themax weight.

This has paused my ivf for last month. When Ioose it again I can be rebooked in.

I have 2kg to go to be safe. I have lost around 4kg in a month but its not enough. I am still not at my goal weight.

I eat very healthily have stopped all snacks and treats. Usually egg or yoghurt in morning carrot sticks and veg chopped for lunch.
Salad/stir fry or veg with meat or fish for tea.

I was eating a lot of fruit but have cut that down.

I walk miles a day. Like at least 5 miles a day but usually around 9 or 10.

I am becoming obsessed with my weight. I weigh myself daily.

I just feel like such a failure and like jacking it all in. Like what is the point.

How do i get through to goal weight. Its taking over my life not in a positive way.

4 kg in a month si not "not enough" it's actually pretty impressive.

If you have 2kg to go, that's just extra 2 weeks. You CAN do it, you WILL do it.

I will be honest here. I don't think the obsession is about weight really.

Sorry for your loss.

It sucks that you have to go through all this when others dont. You've.done so well with your loss.. you can do it.

Cardio, sweat dripping off you cardio. High fat burning heart rate for 15-30 minutes?
A lovely stroll doesn’t always work.
