Hello, i am 20M and have been overweight most of my teenage life. Tried losing weight a number of times before but never had enough will power to pull through. Then i found this subreddit and was just reading it on my way to school each day and something clicked in me. i got home, stepped on a scale and decided that i want to lose weight for real now.
i started calorie counting and using a food scale. If you do not own a food scale then go out and purchase one. Its a must. i must confess that i was undereating at first because i wanted to see the progress but now i preety much eat whatever i want in moderation. my current BMI is 25.1 and "normal" BMI is 24.9. something about beeing so close to "NORMAL" in a very long time makes me want to keep going and gives me motivation.
also i havent really been exercising a lot, just random walks with a friend but i am plan on getting a gym membership one i get my paycheck. my friend is kinda pushing me towards the gym since we want to start together and its nice to have some company while training.
i have lost 28.4kg(62.5lbs) in about 5-6 months.
just wanted to share my story in case it helps someone.
Thanks to this subreddit and you amazing people i gained motivation for my weight loss journey and ill be forever thankful.
Sorry for format, am on mobile and english is not my first language so bare with me.
