SW: 214 CW: 214 GW:160. Other possible relevant info is that I am 15, male, 5’9, from the US.
For a while now I’ve known that I don’t particularly like my body, but it was never that much of a concern. After all, I watched fitness channels and made their “healthy recipes” (while certainly better than mcdonald’s, they weren’t low calorie by any means), and I went on bike rides often enough.
This morning it was a bit cold, play my school tends to leave the AC on fairly high, so I put on a sweatshirt and off I went.
During my last class of the day I got a text from my mom telling me she forgot about a dentist appointment she had and I would have to walk home. I said ok, and finished class.
When I got outside, i noticed it was pretty hot but I didn’t take the sweatshirt off because I was around other people and a sweatshirt mildly conceals my fat while a t shirt does not.
The walk from my school to my house is about 5 miles (a fraction more than 8 kilometers, for my non american people). About 10 minutes in I decided to check the weather on my phone and I saw that it was 91 degrees (32.7 in celsius). And i kept that sweatshirt on the entire walk home, because god forbid some random person I will never see again gets a 10 second glimpse at me without a sweatshirt on. I am sure I attracted more attention by having it on, lol.
When I got bike I was soaked in sweat and dehydrated. And all because I was too insecure to have someone in their car catch a glimpse of my body.
So yeah, that’s when I realized just how much I dislike my body. Day 1, I suppose.
