I don’t believe in resolutions but something has to change!
Today I found out that I weigh 401 lbs. I’m 5’9 and 20 years old. I don’t want to have health issues when I get older, such as heart disease. I’m tired of gettings cysts. I’m tired of having lower back pain when doing mundane tasks like walking around a mall with friends. I’m tired of getting winded easily. I’m tired of always being self conscious of my man tits. I’m tired of not being able to have sex for very long without the aid of my inhaler. I’m tired of being a fat fuck in general. My main issue is that I’ve become okay with being extremely lazy. It also doesn’t help that I love food (but who doesn’t lol). This isn’t a new year resolution I just happened to go to the doctor today and weighed in at 401 lbs! I hate that I’ve let myself get to this point. I can decide to be mad at myself and blame food and video games all day long or finally stop being a pussy and commit to weight loss. It’s not like I haven’t tried losing weight before, I have I just didn’t stick with it. This time around no more last pig out all I can eat days before I change. This can’t be a diet it has to be a lifestyle change. I have to be different. I know a little about calories in vs calories out, and I also know that it’s more important than exercise or so I’ve been told. This has got to be one of the most ballsy things I’ve ever done. I’ve been a lurker of this subreddit for a while, I think I even made a post on an alt account at some point for another failed weight loss attempt. However today I’m going to post this on my main account and if I get shamed so be it (not by people on this sub obviously, everyone here is so nice) . Something has to change and it has to change now! Also I'd greatly appreciate any and all help that I can get from anyone.
EDIT: Okay, I didn't know the best way to respond to everyone besides commenting individually or making my own comment so I'm just going to edit the post and do it this way. As of this morning, less than 24 hours after weighing 401 lbs at the doctor I weigh 397.8 lbs! My thoughts are that a good portion of the weight from when I weighed yesterday was from the clothes and shoes that I was wearing. I was wearing a hoodie, t-shirt, boxers, sweat pants, socks and shoes. Also I had my phone wallet and keys on me when I was weighing too. I know all these things don't weigh that much but they still weigh something. I'm thinking I was proabably more like 398 or 399 and having those clothes on made me top off at 401. Everyone single one of the comments I've gotten have been very very helpful (even the tough love comments, like some suggesting Bariatric surgery) and are helping me to stay motivated. Just seeing how many people support me is really making want to stick to it. I've seen some comments saying they're willing to be accountability buddies. That sounds like a great idea! Maybe we can make a little group chat or something so that we can all change at the same time and help each other through the tough times. I just want to say thank you to everyone again, I did not expect to get the amount of support that I've gotten and I want to do right by myself and by you guys. I CAN DO IT THIS TIME!
