I am 21 years old. Currently in college. I am 30 kg overweight. My ideal weight is 64 kg. I am addicted to fast food.
I have tried to lose weight this year and succeeded quite well. I started to go to gym on the 20.02.19 and by the end of May I had already lost 13.4. Kg. It was a huge deal. It just didn't feel like it at the time... I wanted to lose 4 kg a month. And by the end of the year I would be my ideal weight. Things DID NOT GO AS PLANNED.
My gym workout was basically 2 hrs cardio, one hour cycling and 1 hour walking/jogging and 30 minutes of weight lifting. I did this like 5 or 6 days a week. But it was incredibly hard.
What was worse was the food. My diet was basically morning cereal, lunch was 4 slices of bread and some fish and at night 2 slices of bread and soup.
I love to eat good food. When I am walking somewhere and smell good food, I will buy it. I managed to hold back for a few months.
The problem was that I had to start an internship for 2 months in June. In a hotel. Food is free there. And everyday there is pasta, macaroni, fried noodles, chicken and mutton curry,etc.
It was just too much. Part of it was that when I reached 81 kg or so,my weight just WOULDN'T go down! I doubled the hours i put in. I did 4 hrs in the gym for 2 weeks almost. I got to 80.2 kg.
And then I kinda SNAPPED. I was sick of just everything. Sick of watching co workers eat delicious food while I had to eat salad and bread.
Add to that was the college exams and I was stressed. I ended up stress eating. I kind of just let go for a while.
Fast forward to today, I am back to 95 kg or so. I am starting my diet again this week. I have exams in 10 days but I am just tired of feeling fat.
Its just when I think of just how much I suffered to lose those 13 kg, the nausea,fainting(body wasn't used to diet yet), the muscle pain, the sheer BOREDOM of running,walking,cycling and more running,walking,cycling...I don't feel like I will be able to do it.
Thank you for reading. Just wanted to rant a bit.
