Maybe this is just me but every time I start a weight loss diet it feels easy at first. Like the first few days I’m motivated, I buy better food, I plan meals, I feel like ok this time I’m actually gonna do it. Then a few days later it gets annoying. The meals feel boring, the rules feel too strict, cravings come back, and one bad meal makes me feel like I already messed up. Then it turns into “whatever I’ll restart Monday.” I don’t think I quit because I don’t care, it just starts feeling like the diet doesn’t fit real life. Does anyone else get stuck in this loop?

Like starting strong, falling off after a few days, then going back to old habits or stress eating/boredom eating?

Body:

ok so idk if anyone else goes through this but i feel like im stuck in the same loop forever

like i start out really motivated and then like 2-3 weeks in it just... falls apart. too restrictive too boring whatever. and then even when i actually lose weight it comes back bc i stress eat or im just bored at night or having a bad week

and dont even get me started on all the info online like everyone says something different and i genuinely dont know what to follow anymore

anyway not looking for advice or tips just curious if anyone else feels this way or if its just me 😅

I’m starting to think super strict diets are why I always quit. Like at first the rules feel kind of helpful because at least you know what to do. But after a few days it starts feeling like you can’t eat normal food anymore.Then I get bored, cravings get worse, I eat one thing that wasn’t “allowed” and it feels like I messed up the whole diet. Then it turns into that all or nothing thing.

Either I’m doing it perfect or I’m completely off track. Does anyone else get like this with weight loss diets? Like one bad meal turns into “whatever I’ll restart Monday”?

idk if it's just me but every time i try to eat “healthy” i end up overthinking everything

like one day i'm like ok no sugar no junk clean eating only

next day i'm stressed just looking at food lol

and the worst part is… i actually try to eat better but i still don’t see results ??

sometimes i eat “healthy” but then i realize maybe i'm just eating too much of it ?

or maybe it's not even about the food but how much of it… idk

also nobody talks about how hard it is to actually make healthy food that tastes good and fills you up

i always start strong for like a few days then it just becomes too much to keep up

am i the only one struggling with this or am i doing something wrong ?
