So all my life I've been one of those people that was maybe slightly heavier than what I wanted to be, but always a healthy weight and BMI. I'm 22 years old, 163 cm, and my weight has always fluctuated between 57 and around 62 kg. About a year ago I was on the lower end of that scale, but I suddenly couldn't bring myself to go running 2/3 times a week as I'd done all my life and I started eating a little worse. I've steadily gained 10 kilos over the past year. So today I was casually browsing the loseit sub because I really started to hate the shape my body has become and opened a post where you could calculate your BMI. I knew I was a little heavier than I should be, but I expected it to still be a weight that classified as healthy, I am currently 67 kilos.
It was 25,2, and stated I was overweight
Now I know some people here have a way longer road ahead of them than I do, but I had never qualified as "overweight" before and it felt like a slap in the face. I had always disliked my body and wished I was skinnier, even when I was at my skinniest. Now I look back at photos from a year ago and wish my body would look like that again.
I want to stop this before it gets even worse. I wanted to post it here because I want to make a commitment. I'm going to throw out my unhealthy foods, I'm going to do my best to go running again, and I'm going to track what I eat. I've always 'tried' dieting before but have never been serious enough to succeed. And every time I give up I'm going to look at this post and just start over, because it's okay if I fail sometimes, but not even trying has brought me in this position and I'm determined to change.
