A New Day
Hi! I’m 19, female, and weigh at 281 lbs. This is the highest my weight has ever been and I have no friends my age to talk about this with. During the day I’m decent with my calorie intake until it’s night. I tend to binge at night and I’m unsure how to overcome it. I don’t have a job because we only have one car in the household and my dad works. I help my mom and help take care of the house since my mom is battling cancer for the third time. Thankfully it’s not as far along as the doctors originally thought and my mom is the strongest person I know. We also live in the middle of nowhere and I’m in online classes at a community college to get my associates. After that I plan on going to a university to get a degree. I want to start healthy habits now while I’m on summer break because I know I’m going to be stressed once class starts again. My classes that are usually done over a course of 16 weeks are squished into an 8 week time period 😅. There are many reasons I have for wanting to lose weight. Some are vain like for clothing and looks (especially since I plan on staying at a dorm when I go to university). While some reasons are more for health like not having to take breaks all the time just because of simple tasks. When I was in my early years of elementary school I was one the smallest in my class but then I got my very large tonsils removed and I became overweight. For some reason I’ve always thought I was ugly and fat even when I was considered small. Feeling this way caused me to not join activities really in school and costed my enjoyment. I plan on being involved in university though which I’m very excited about. I have a food scale to help me on my journey and have taken photos to help see my progress and plan on taking photos monthly or every 2 weeks. I feel pathetic because I have time to get healthy but get overwhelmed because there’s a lot of things I want to do. Like drawing, learning a new language, and etc. I’m also unsure how to stick with the process since I usually quit after a week at most. I thought about letting myself buy something as a reward when I lose certain amounts of weight. Other than that I’m unsure how to stay motivated throughout the process.
