Okay so I’ve been overweight my whole life. Ever since I was like 7 years old. And I always hated taking pictures when I was a kid, for that reason. I’ve lost weight a few times but I never managed to keep it off due to me just being ignorant. At 18 I lost a good amount of weight but then I got depressed and gained the weight + more back in a short amount of time. That left me with stretch marks that I hate. And now at 23 I’ve lost 50 lbs and I’m trying to loose 50 more. I feel stupid for saying this but I’m embarrassed that I was overweight. I’m embarrassed that I let it go on for that long. I’m embarrassed about what my body looks like at 23. I’m embarrassed to even let future partners know that I’ve always been overweight in my past. I’m embarrassed. Just thinking about people seeing pictures of myself from when I was a kid makes me not feel great tbh, because I was overweight and always looked bigger than every other kid. I know that there’s nothing to be embarrassed about because I’ve dealt with mental health issues which contributed to my weight gain as well. But I just can’t help it.
