weight gain :(

after losing 20 kg I started eating healthy at first then when weight didn't come down anymore i started  to starve myself then I couldn't handle it so I went back somehow eating but still controlling myself and I've gained 7 kg so would the healthy diet that I used before help me lose the extra weight ?? or is it helpless ??

It's always hard to make changes, but sometimes we have no choice.

Have you been tested for hypothyroidism, insulin resistance, or PCOS? All of those cause weight gain and/or inability to lose.

I agree that you should not just give up. Go back to your healthy diet, then calculate the number of calories you actually need each day and proceed from there.

Snack on apples, veggie sticks, etc. And do get some exercise.

Don't be disheartened, just put it to bed and start again. As soon as you start to feel hungry eat a banana or an apple and make sure you drink plenty of water. 99% of the time you are thirsty rather than hungry. I've lost almost 2 stone just by eating smaller portions and walking. I have a heart condition so can't do heavy exercise. If I can do it, you can do it, good luck and keep going!!!
