Hey! First time posting here, I thought why not leave some sort of paper trail of my story :)
In 2014 I went to college and went from ~180 => ~230 by 2018. Since then I've been around 250-240. I've tried so many times to lose weight, but each time I failed getting tempted with junk foods (Italian anything especially) then once I cheated once I thought "well fuck it" - I think we've all been there.
I started another journey, 27 days ago today. I've been listening to the book "The Obesity Code" on audible and it's changed my understanding of weight loss. All the apps always point to a calorie deficit being the only thing that matters but science continues to prove otherwise. So I basically changed my diet to keto, and I'm intermittent fasting (16/8) to keep my insulin low - and I do not count any calories.
It's the first time in my life that sticking to a diet is manageable and isn't hard to stick to. I don't even really give junk food a second thought anymore because I don't crave it. Right now, I'm at 225, and I haven't been there since 2016. It really feels like I'm in a different body than I was just a month ago, but I know I get down to where I was in 2014.
Anyway, unsure if anything useful is in that stuff I just wrote, I just wanted to vent somewhere :) I'll be around perhaps? Unsure. But I know that I'm going to continue until I at least break 200 this summer!
