Getting serious about my goals after being the highest I’ve ever been.

Hey all,

So COVID like for all of us has been so detrimental to my mental and physical health. For the last few years I have avoided stepping on a scale because I did not want to obsess about my weight. However, I should have taken a reality check earlier when even my fat clothes weren’t fitting anymore. In the last 5 years I have gained 70lbs!

I could not believe the number when I finally got on the scale. My fatigue suddenly made sense. I lost who I was, more than just the weight gain, I stopped going out, I stopped dressing nicely (I no longer had to with everything on zoom), I ordered junk every night, I missed important events because I didn’t want people to see me looking so big. and I’ve finally had enough.

So far I’ve already been able to lose 7lbs since Feb 8th when this all hit me, and I am committed to giving myself and my body the respect it deserves going forward. Came here for some accountability and support. If anyone is going through it feel free to hit me up.

We got this!
