Hey everyone.
This isn't an easy post for me to make because I've restarted so many times, I can't keep count. It's always a new cycle of starting over, overeating, and then gaining all the weight back anymore. Two days ago I stepped on the scale and reached my highest weight of 148 lbs at 5'4.5 or 5'5. I am on the track team at my college, but my weight has stopped me from breaking my own personal records. I used to be 110 at 5'4.5 or 5'5 in high school when I was at my prime speed. I got really sick over the summer, and was on medication that makes you gain weight. However, it isn't just the medication. When I came into college, I started eating like absolute shit.
I entered a cycle of binging on pizza, fries, cookies, and ice cream. Sometimes it would happen multiple times per day. I remember in high school, I used to eat a bunch of fruit, chicken salads, and a protein/rice combo every single day. I had a really hard time adjusting to the food at college because it was so different from what I was used to eating.
I really want to start over for real this time, and take accountability for my actions as well. I am considering posting every single week to update on my journey. I don't want to track my calories as that has led to heavy restriction and binging in the past. What are some unusual tips that have helped you lose weight for real this time? Please feel free to go into detail and elaborate, not just I ate less and exercise more. How did you get into the right headspace to losing all the weight.
I feel like a failure. I don't like the way I look in my new body. I have zero self confidence. I need to lose approximately 35-40 pounds.
I'm ready for a new change, I just don't know how I'll do it.
TLDR: After 2 years of constant failing, I am finally turning to reddit. I need help losing weight. Please comment down below your tips, feel free to go into detail and elaborate.
