Hello all! I’ve been doing CICO since January and lost 25 lbs so far, with no plans on stopping. Thanks to this sub for motivating me! (F/5’4”/SW301/CW285)
This is a long story but I just have to share/rant. Before starting my weight loss journey in January, I hadn’t weighed myself in nearly a decade. I know it sounds crazy, but I have a memory of being weighed at the doctor’s office when I was 12/13 and they said I was 206 lbs. i have been obese my entire life, but looking back, I was definitely in denial. I was so shocked and embarrassed that my coping mechanism was to never weigh myself again. Whenever I’d go to the doctor, I would look away when they weighed me. Since then, I have been gaining and gaining weight. When I weighed myself in January I was 301 lbs. Now that I’m losing weight (and weighing myself regularly) I really wish I knew what I weighed at different stages in my life for comparison. For instance, when I graduated college a few years ago I look back at those photos and am excited to be at that weight/look that way (even though I was still obese). The problem is I don’t know what that weight was so I’ll have no idea if I achieved that other than going off of the size of clothing.
Can anyone else relate to this? Is it possible to ask my doctor what my weight was on previous records? Just so frustrated with myself for being in denial for so long.
Thanks to anyone who read!
