I am a 21 year old female, who currently weighs around 175 to 176 pounds. I am 5’9. Although this isn’t too bad, here are a few things that happened recently. I used to be in the 140s, which is a pretty healthy weight for my height. My father passed away in September 2021, and that is when I started to gain weight. I was under a high stress situation, and it was very easy to eat out and not exercise. I gained about 30 pounds in the past year and a half. I feel so embarrassed and pathetic that I “let myself go;” I have cried about it and felt anxiety. I can’t believe I did this to myself and I feel like I lost something (my body) else along with losing my dad. I feel like my dad would have been so disappointed in me if he knew I gained so much weight.
I am now looking forward to changing my lifestyle. I am worried I will be “stuck” at this weight forever. I don’t want to throw a pity party. I do think my weight gain was a good life lesson but I’m honestly devastated. I ate better today and exercised more than I normally do. I am excited to workout tomorrow and start my new diet. My current goal weight is anything below 160, but it would be nice to get closer to my previous weight. I can’t wait to lose my first few pounds! I will very happy to see my hard work pay off.
