Okay yall. I am a 23 year old female weighing in at 400 pounds. It’s crazy but my weight has just skyrocketed about 80 pounds since 2020. A unforeseen event happened to a close immediate family member that lead them to being disabled. You’d think that would help me realize that things aren’t guaranteed and kick my ass into gear but it has not. Some other details are that I have been fat since 10ish but never felt addicted to food until the last year or so. I’ve been ordering DoorDash twice everyday for a month, always ordering an entree and a half. Food, especially fast food, seems like a compulsion at this point. I just can’t stop. It’s scary cus I feel like I can’t do this on my own, I have zero discipline, but my weight is gonna kill me if I don’t get on it and I don’t quite want surgery yet. I have bad back pain if I stand for longer than one minute. I had to quit a job cus it was to physical for me. I’ve missed out on typical young adult things because of my obesity. If anyone knows of any resources that helped them stick to healthier habits please share. Also I live in the hampton roads area of VA if anyone knows any support groups or programs out here? Other quick side notes: -Tried to get mounjaro but my insurance would not prescribe it because I don’t have diabetes or pre diabetes -Have tried MyFitnessPal and WW -I just overall need tips on discipline I know nothing can happen if I lack the willpower. But on the other hand I’m also a firm believer that maybe it’s not all a will issue. That food addiction should be treated like other addictions in society. It takes more than shear will power to shake it off? Ppl don’t expect crack fiends to just recover on their own based on discipline? Idk. Not to make excuses but I do feel truly addicted. Could surgery help reprogram me by giving me the extra tool in the beginning?
