I’ve always been an overweight kid. I was Very active with sports and friends but at the end of the day my favorite activity was eating. I am about 3 years sober of a pill addiction that caused me to have an eating disorder. I never was much of a self motivator but I lost around 70lbs the wrong way. As terrible as it was, always being the ‘chubby girl’ with all of the new attention had never felt better. Besides the artificial energy and focus, I would go days without eating and spend hours in the gym. Being sober is great, but I just stepped on the scale and I’ve gained almost 90 pounds in 2 1/2 years. I’ve never felt so low. I am starting a new journey and feel optimistic about it, however seeing where I am starting is a huge blow to my ego and self esteem. I am the heaviest I have ever been. Fearing for my health and future I am optimistic and motivated, and having been a lurker here forever my main question is what made it all ‘click’ for you? When did/What made you finally cut the shit and love yourselves enough to stick with something?
Sorry if this is a ramble, y’all are just very inspiring!
