After struggling with my weight through most of my 20s (spiralling out of control when I lost a very close Uncle to me a few years back), it's time for me to take back control of my body.
As of today, 11/04/20, I am done being unable to accept who I am because of my weight, I know it's going to be a long and arduous process, but this is the first step into fixing my prior mistakes.
Currently weighing in at 310 lbs, 6ft tall, I don't have a specific goal besides in the long term getting myself comfortable with who I am, and having a decent BMI for the first time I can remember in so long. After meeting the love of my life, I feel guilty thinking that I don't deserve her when I myself am uncomfortable with how I look (for reference she is 5"5', ~105 lbs). She is an amazing woman for accepting me as I currently am, but I need to change, I don't want to live like this forever.
For my diet, I started by cutting out most the junk foods I love, I could easily devour a whole pack of chocolate biscuits, I am going to try and have them as a one-off snack every now and again instead of eating the whole lot and feeling guilty the rest of the day as my stomach told me 'why did you just eat all those?'
Exercising is really tough, I can only walk on a treadmill for about 10 minutes before needing to stop, but it can only get easier from here, I am lucky that I have a lot of equipment in my garage from my father so I can do it amidst the virus epidemic.
Sorry for the short rant if you want to call it that, but I needed to get off my chest and any advice is appreciated!
