new nurse, embarrassed, & lost

hello all! i‘ve been arguing with myself over the past week about starting my weight loss journey and i’m ready to commit, but i’m honestly so scared. i’m a 21 year old female in the south, soon to graduate, marry, and start working as a nurse all in the next 2-3 months.

here’s the main thing. i’ve never exercised. i grew up thinking i was fat and was very self conscious. i skipped PE as much as i could. so what seems to be “normal” to my peers is terrifying to me. i want to start exercising along with my dieting but i just don’t know where to start. i started college around 135 lbs and am now at 170 and i just FEEL fat and i know i have to get rid of this weight now while i’m still young.

the diverse reddit population has helped me on so many other things, i know there’s somebody out there who was/is in my current situation and i just want to figure out how to get this going and stay motivated. since i’m so stressed with nursing school and work right now, half the time i will make an effort at weight loss, then blow it because i tell myself i deserve to enjoy my food or take a nap all day (i have hypothyroidism). please give me any advice you may have/words of encouragement/etc because i just feel lost right now as i try to prepare for this journey that i need to stick with.

any and all comments are truly appreciated 🤍
