So right as pandemic came along, I had bad eating habits but never cared to change any of them because I didn't feel like I had to. few months after, I was at my lowest ever, no self-esteem and pretty much developed an ED I just couldn't fight back. I started watching all kinds of crap diets I could find yet I couldn't keep up with none, always lost interest in about a month, just couldn't commit to anything. This is where I seriously had my darkest days, when I started OMAD with no doctor checking up with me, just bc I saw it worked for some people. I lost weight with it yeah, but gained it all right back in a couple of months, not even changing my diet. So then I counted calories and worked out, was just as miserable. There was just a point in my life where I was sick of months of trying and wanted to just take care of me, let go of all the lies fitness YouTubers tell you, so I said fuck it. I started on my first job and got a bike from my parents, probably the best present I could ever get. after a few months of healthy eating all my meals of the day with your protein here veggies there carbs etc etc, I felt so good, it wasn't about my appearance anymore, it was about my health. the months went by and of course I noticed clothes fit better and whatnot, but didn't really give it too much attention bc I didn't wanna go back to obsessing. All of this until last weekend I went to the market with my gf and had the idea to weight myself, the thing I feared the most in the past. To my surprise, I had lost 22 pounds since the last time I weighted myself, which I did not expect at ALL. So now, I'm at a very good point in my life, I found balance, I no longer see bad or good food. I forgave myself for everything I've done to myself, all because I let go of my obsession. Plus, feels real good to wear big ass comfortable t-shirts at home.
