Heya, This is my first time ever joining a site like this..Kinda nervous.

Ive been trying to loose weight for years now, and I have everything I need to do it, except support. I feel like I have noone who really believes in me, that I cant talk to bout how hard it is for me.

I live in a foster home, and my foster mom is anything but supportive. I dont feel I can talk to any of my friends about it, and my sister has always made me feel really bad about my weight. Shes very skinny, and healthy.

Im almost 18 and

[
  • I have high blood pressure
  • I am pre-diabetic
  • I had my gall bladder taken out from gall stones late last year
  • I have fatty build up on my liver
  • I currently weight 322. The highest Ive ever been in my entire life.

I feel really scared sometimes that I cant lose the weight, but then there are days I KNOW I can do it. I feel really stupid for not eating healthy, I want to..I just dont. I'll go to the fridge to get an apple or some fruit and Ill grab chocolate and soda instead.

But Im really done with it all. the overeating, the hiding food, everything thats keeping me from being healthy.
 
Caityhugstrees,
First of all congrats on making one of the hardest steps of the journey which is dedicating yourself to change. Now you just need to do it. Discipline, motivation, and education will get you to your goal. Remember there is no miracle method of weight loss - it takes hard work and most of all patience. Keep your food intake between 1700-2000 calories a day and workout 5 days a week for 60-90 minutes doing cardio and strength training. If you do that you will lose weight. I have lost 93lbs over a year (78 in the past 6 months) doing it the right way (no drugs, fads, etc.). If you want any advice, or plans, etc. send me a message and I will be happy to share with you things that have worked for me. Good luck and welcome to the community!!!!!
 
Hi ..

Hi ..

you sound just like me, even I too have a sister who is skinny. And I'm just jealous bcos she has a sedentary lifestyle and eats whatever she likes. Including a box of chocolates in one go.

The only motivation I have is my mom, who still believes I'm not fat :biggrinjester: even though I'm

My sexual life is kind of messed up now, my hubby doesn't have interest over me like he used to have. come on who would have imagined me getting so big neither did I .. :willy_nilly:

Pat yourself that you have stepped in here to ask for support and motivation, my motivation is reading all the success stories here.

When I started my weight loss regime, I thought I would never ever make it. But after I lost some good pounds, it keeps me going.

I noticed the first two week is the hardest part , if you can go thro it nothing is impossible.:hurray:

All the best. :seeya:
