Depressed I realized the more and more I stress it I have begun to eat all the things I should not be eating. When my stall started its been 3 months now i can't help but to be depressed feeling worthless and not happy with myself. I have dried going back to basics drinking my shakes and just trying to keep positive and motivated and then back to bad choices again once I feel that I am just not getting anywhere I need some serious advice I have looked around the web to get an idea or example of things to try and do ideas of new foods to try I just don't know where to start or where I even left off to begin with I don't know what happened I feel like such a failure!

Ok...90 lbs loss is not failing!!! So you have a set back - it's easy to let old habits sneak back in. Try going back to basics. I also recommend counseling/therapy to deal with emotional eating. I'm doing it pre-op and surprised at how much it seems to be helping. You should be proud of your success so far and don't self sabotage!!! Here's a good article and also a 5 day reset you should try. Stay strong!
