I’m 16f (17 soon) and 180 pounds at 5’6.
A little background: My parents never instilled any healthy habits in my siblings or I growing up, and I’m really struggling now because of it. The heaviest I’ve ever been was like 195 when I was 12 years old. I developed an eating disorder that I struggled with for a few years and was in a constant battle with my weight shifting between 160- 190 before I opened up to a close friend and got help (my parents never noticed and I try not to but I kinda resent them for it). After that, I (in a healthy way) lost weight and got down to 140 pounds in 2019. It was the lowest I’ve been since I was in fifth or fourth grade. I was so happy and proud of myself and I started loving who I was. Then Covid happened, and it’s all gone downhill. I’ve gained 40 pounds since then and I can’t seem to lose it even though I’m doing the same things I did before. Ive been trying and constantly failing since May. I have no motivation, my parents basically only buy junk food (every time I ask for healthier options my mother tells me no because she thinks I won’t eat it), I keep binging and I really try not to, I feel horrible mentally and physically every time I even attempt to work out, and I’m homeschooled and not allowed to get a job. Im miserable and I’m tired and I have no one in my personal life to ask for help or advice and I’m sick of feeling like this. I know this all probably sounds really pathetic but I really just need help or someone to talk to or something. I don’t know. If anyone has any advice I’d really, really appreciate it.
TL;DR: I’m 16, depressed, struggle with binging, feel sick whenever I even attempt to work out, parents only buy junk food, and I’m really struggling with just getting started and not failing a day or two after I start.
