I [26F] was disowned six years ago. The weight is the last thing I carry with me. It’s my time.

Hello everyone.

I have been over 200 lbs since I was 9. To put simply, there was a lot of Bad Stuff that went down, and I ate the feelings instead of talking about the feelings. I’m sure some of you all can relate to that. My parents tried putting me on every fad diet under the sun, which felt like another punishment.

As crazier stuff happened, my eating habits became more maladaptive. Larger quantities, sneaking food, insatiable cravings for comfort foods. Felt bad about being fat, ate the feelings about being fat. A self-fulfilling downward spiral.

And then, the elephant in the room— I was disowned for being gay during Mother’s Day weekend, 2016.

I had been using Atkins before then, and went from 290 to 240. That’s the lowest weight I’ve ever been, ever since I was 9.

To put this as mildly as I can, I’m really fat. Like, nearly 400 lbs fat. I wanted to get an accurate measure today but I’m with my roommate’s family and her nana’s scale doesn’t go up high enough.

I want to lose the weight. For real this time. I want this to be my last major weight loss attempt, because it will be the last time I’ll be anywhere near 400 lbs.

Anyone know of other communities? I like having a team, and weight loss can be so lonely.
