Body image (21F)

I started my weight loss journey seriously the 1st January 2021. The problem is, I’ve started this journey so many times before only to get heavier and heavier throughout the years. I’ve had problems with eating when I was 12 where I would starve myself because I thought I was fat when looking back I was very skinny. There hasn’t been a time where I haven’t been conscious of my body since I was about 10 years old.

I have lost weight only to gain even more weight gradually afterwards. I looked back at old photos now and get mad at myself for not appreciating how good i actually looked but instead still felt “fat”. Before I knew it I was ACTUALLY overweight. I started my weight loss journey at 72.8kg (160.5lb) and I am aiming to be 60kg (132.3lb). I am 5’3 so even a couple kg difference shows on my body. My face and stomach are the first to change due to weight loss or gain.

I’ve noticed the best way for me to lose weight consistently is through calorie counting. My plan is to consume 1200 cal a day. I can eat more as long as i exercise it off of course which I sometimes do by cycling. This should take roughly five months and I should finally be happy with my size by May 2021. It has been a hard journey so far and we are only ten days in. If anyone has any words of encouragement or tips I would love to hear them!
