[quote=Anonymous]I need to lose 20 lbs.  I've been trying since last summer.  I'll get on a good kick of eating and working out but then get easily derailed by kids, life, illness, bad day, etc. I was headed in the right direction but then took a medicine this fall that made me gain almost 10 lbs so I'm more discouraged than ever.  I've started Whole 30 a few times but I find it too restrictive.  I've also done IF (thanks to this board) which I can do on a 16:8 for a few days but then I fall off the wagon.  I feel so cranky and deprived when I'm hungry.  There's so much going on in my life food does feel like one positive thing I can have.  I'm not  eating tubs of ice cream or cheescakes or anything like that but I do eat more than I should to lose. I started tracking calories again and as usual did well for a few days and then tonight totally went overboard at dinner.  For those who are successful with willpower, how do you do it?  The old "nothing tastes as good as thin feels" isn't cutting it.  I see a lot of Phen Pro people on here and I'm not there yet.  Is there anything short of that I can take to help jump start me?  I feel so defeated and helpless.  [/quote]
