One year update (F, 21, 204 lbs)
21, F, 5'3" (160 cm), SW: 245 lbs (111 kg), CW: 204 lbs (92.5 kg), GW: current goal is still 200 lbs (90.7 kg) but after that I'm going for 180 (81.7 kg)
I last posted here in June of 2019 when I was 230 lbs (104.3 kg) and having a pretty hard time mentally/emotionally. Here’s the original post if you’re interested.
Since my last post, my cat died, my 6 year relationship ended, and I spent a period of time living out of my car. It's been a hell of an eat-ice-cream-and-cry year lol, but I'm finally feeling good again and learning to get out of my house and do things on my own. I was hoping to lose more weight than I have, but I've at least made a dent that I feel proud of.
I’ve been working on changing my relationship with food, trying foods I thought I didn’t like and not using food as a way to create happiness. To be honest, I haven’t been calorie counting or intermittent fasting anymore (even though those helped me last year!). I just want to focus more on feeling good than losing as much weight as possible as fast as I can. I think the major thing that has changed for me is that I really do want to live and I want to live happily. I’m enjoying eating when I’m hungry and going for walks while listening to music when I’m sad.
I actually just finished a 5 mile walk and I feel pretty good! I've started listening to full albums while I walk. Today I listened to Harry Styles' Fine Line and Childish Gambino's "Awaken, My Love!". If you have any album recommendations, please let me know!
Once again, best of luck to all of you on your health and fitness journeys!
