Hello fellow Redditors. I am a fifteen year old girl, 5’5 and two months ago I weighed 182 lbs . I was obese, unhealthy and began having back issues due to my bodying carrying so much weight. I decided to begin my journey to become healthier and more fit. I struggle with binge eating and anxiety as well. A message to teens who are looking to lose weight keep in mind it’s not a fast process especially if you are making a lifestyle change as well. You will make mistakes and will gain weight then lose it again. It’s a rough journey and you will experience so many emotions; motivation, disappointment, gratitude, regret. Be prepared to fail and start again. Be prepared to have people say mean horrible things. You got this. Look at your weight loss journey as a health goal rather than a way to look “hotter or prettier”. Adapting these lifestyle changes now will help you as an adult. Keep in mind you can still enjoy food and be healthy and fit. Never stop enjoying food. Allow yourself to enjoy the flavors and tastes without binging afterwards. Focus on food as something that helps your body to feel healthy and great rather than for pleasure. It’s your body, it deserves all the love you have, I’m not saying obsess over your health but treat your body well, you have to live in it for the rest of your life. Don’t ever punish yourself when you make mistakes, instead think of ways you can do better tomorrow. Most importantly stay strong. I know how hard it is to lose weight especially when adults, parents, siblings, friends and strangers can be cruel and comment on your weight in bad ways rather than motivating you. I know those hard nights crying because you hate the way you look and feel, but rest assured everyone can find the motivation to lose weight. Whether it takes weeks or a year, once you are persistent and never give up you will achieve your goals eventually. Stay strong everyone <3
