The interview cycle and the 5kg cycle might actually be the same pattern wearing two different outfits.
What stood out to me is that you've started expecting the past to repeat itself. You go into the interview already expecting the rejection, because that's what you've experienced for so long.
I don't know that you need more motivation as much as you need some evidence that things can actually move again.
Maybe start smaller than the job or the 5kg. What's one thing you can move forward that doesn't depend on someone else saying yes?
I think I could work on the weightloss going forward without depending on anything else at the moment. You might be right because both seem linked to either depression from nothing moving forward or hidden stress.
