I mean, without focus and dedication? Trying to train yourself out of emotional eating when you're in the midst of depression is like learning to swim while you're drowning. You're not going to get it exactly right, and it may be epic fail. Let yourself be human, and when you come out on the other side of this funk, dig back in and do what you need to do. This is just advice from one depresso to another. Cheers, hang in there.
Just ride it out, man. Sometimes that's all you can do. Do what you need to to nurture yourself, and you know what? Peanut butter sandwiched cookies happen; no big whoop. There's a really big misconception that skinny people don't binge, and we're somehow crappy people because we do and get fat. The skinniest girl I know confessed she ate the entire box of Costco muffins in two days. Those things are massive. What's more, how long have you been doing this weight loss thing? (cont')
Chin up, Trav. We all go through peaks and valleys in our life, but the nice thing is that there's always a high peak waiting to emerge out of a sucky valley. And don't sweat the eating slip up - we all find ourselves in that position at one time or another. I downed a half a bag of Doritos yesterday, shh
Trav, you are absolutely NOT pathetic, we all have setbacks and I totally understand that they make you feel like crap but the fact that you recognize it and can say that it is emotional is a huge step! I know, that it might not make a difference but consider how many people you help here on youtube just by being you and being honest. I feel truly inspired by you. Keep your chin up, its the only way to catch a glimpse of the sun.
Why? I'm just a dude, playing a dude, pretending to be another dude. :D
Seriously though, why be inspired by ME? You've got peeps like Greggers who are losing weight so much more efficiently than me. Or Shanti who seems to have a never ending knowledge of all things healthy. Or seansymons who's the work out extrordinare guy. Or PandasTT who's just as gorgeous and fun as can be!
I am inspired by them too but you are equally worthy of my admiration as any of them! You are working hard to accomplish something important to you, what is not deserving in that?
And yeah depressionz a btch, but what dont kill you makez you stronger bruh.

I won't. Or at least, I'll try not to! But I'm pissed off at myself for this. So I'm going to try and use that self-rage to push myself harder.

I don't really know what to say because I've never been in this situation.
What I can say is that I'm here if you just need an ear to listen or in this case, eyes to read:)
*hugs*
It will get better. Just hang in there *hugs*

Travis, WTF you sound like you are on a sugar low. Snap out of it. Pin down the problem. Go for a walk and you will feel better.
I do hope you feel better soon!
