I am a 22yr old female just graduated from college. I am 5'10 and 174 lbs at my heaviest I weighed 200lbs. I lost 15-20 lbs two summer ago within a one month period. I worked out day and night about 3 hours a day and ate really healthy I never gained back the weight. It has been two years since and I want to lose another 15-20 by October 9th only this time its so hard for me to do it. I started on September 4th and I am now 170lbs I weigh my self every Friday, today was my first weigh in.
I really need motivation. Its been a hard weight loss process from me mostly because my family supports me in everything I do but not this. I come from a family where big is better, not too big but having a "body" is good. As a child I was given any food I wanted by my parents I was never regulated, my parents just spoiled us ridiculously and I never knew about portion sizes. When I got to high school and I noticed I was 190lbs I started learning about portion sizes and etc. Growing up my mothers version of a diet would be eating out at gourmet restaurants, our fridge would have cheese cake, pizza, ice cream, juices, fruits and salad. We had fruits and veggies but the fattening food out numbered them. I started this weight loss journey when I went out of state for college and now I want to finish it by my self before I move back home and look for a job and begin working. I need motivation. I feel guilty losing weight I feel like my family wont like me. I need support from somewhere and im hoping to get it here

Goal:150 October 9th
