Hey I'm a recovering meth addict. as of right now, I am one week away from 8 months clean and sober. I figured I'd tell my story here on r/lose it. about my weight loss, weight gain, and my efforts to lose that weight I gained from recovery. So at one point, I was pushing 300 pounds at the age of 15. I hated it but had no clue on how to even lose weight, and never cared to figure out how. I would just day dream about me being skinny in the future, thinking it would just magically happen. of course that's impossible. anyways, I come from a family full of drug addicts and I never expected me to become one. all I did was smoke pot religiously but eventually I was introduced to meth at the age of 15. I absolutely loved it. I went in deep after the first hit and started cooking it, and smoking it every day for at least 4 months. than I quit for about two but what was weird I had absolutely no weight loss. fast forward to the end of my freshman year, and start of sophomore, i was about 280 pounds. I got into vyvanse heavy and did meth when it came around, I was on vyvanse for 2 years. this is when I lost over 100 pounds and I loved the benefits of it, I was more confident and excelled at school. of course that all ended when I got caught with the pills at school and caught a felony charge. well after that I lost my vyvanse connects and got into meth really bad. I lost even more weight. my meth binge didnt end for 5 months it was every day i was getting high. than i got put on probation went to jail, got out off jail, and started right back to using meth. well i got drug tested 12 days after i was released failed it for high levels of meth, and went right back for 30 days and put on drug court. which changed my life. I got clean but had massive weight gain. I was down to 180 at 6'3 and gained 60 pounds in under 4 months. I had horrible self esteem issues, now I'm finally doing something about it . I'm on a loose diet and I've already lost 30 pounds doing it, without meth and I couldn't be more proud of myself. it feels better too, my health isn't suffering and I'm doing it without using cheat codes but that's my story sorry it's so long.
