Thanks for stopping by - I'm pulling for you! If you don't mind some unsolicited advice, I know a few things that might help.
I went from around 300 to 170 today. I'm working on getting that down to the 140-150 range. 170 is healthy for me, but I need to scrub off the rest. I'm under 1,000 calories a day, so I should be there by the end of the year or end of January. Doesn't matter, it's coming off.
If you don't have a pet, think about it. There are lots of them at the shelter and they are tremendously beneficial, especially cats and dogs. Nothing against birds and fish, but cats and dogs are really affectionate. They give you something to look forward to and something to look after. If you got a dog, you could take it out a couple of times a day. A good excuse to get outside and exercise, plus the dog will love it.
A couple of books I've found very helpful over the years are Meditations, by Marcus Aurelius and Buddhism Plain and Simple, by Steve Hagen. A little stoicism and reflections on life from nearly 2,000 years ago is surprisingly helpful. So is Hagen's book. No, it's not some religious tract. It's an introduction to Buddhism and a different way of looking at things. 100% compatible with atheism, by the way. Clear, concise and always interesting. At worst, you'll simply understand Buddhism. At best, you'll find some tools to improve your life.
Think about weight loss in the long term. It's going to take you two or three years to get where you want. But that's OK. It gets frustrating day-to-day when you just want it to be over with, but you have to stick it out. You've probably covered this with your therapist, but it's really important to shift your rewards away from food. Get yourself used to going for something else. Make it something productive. Go to school, or at least take some classes. Learn another language. Take up some hobbies. Make those things into your new reward. It won't happen overnight, but work at it.
Hopefully, those might help you out. I'd like them to. Keep working at it - you will get there.
