My 5 month weight loss story

I’m 6’2 265 lbs and I used to be 300. I was at my highest since last September. I tried supplements and everything, didn’t like it and didn’t see any benefits. I made the decision to stop messing around and to get serious for New Years. It was was hard but I committed to working out everyday after school and on the weekends, I improved my diet and I was losing weight. I kept it going with some ups and downs and I was down 30lbs on April 13 which was the first day of Ramadan.

Ramadan made me stop drinking my normal gallon a day to around 60 oz a night. My dinner was dictated by what was made for that day. I fought hard and I kept on losing. I stopped my workouts by justifying better eating habits as I ate less. I lost 10 lbs from Ramadan which spanned over 30 days.

Shortly after, my weight started to rise. I chalked it up to water weight as I didn’t change my eating habits. A week and some days has passed and I gone up 3 lbs. I know that doesn’t seem bad, but it is brutal for me as I have a fear that it will keep on rising. Also that I promised myself to always be negative and if not to not let be more than a pound in a single day. I just feel defeated. I try to workout but my mind is just like no. I spent more and more time in the house not moving and my weight rose in correlation.

I made the next step. I have to move forward no matter how hard it is. My eating habits went sideways but I’m fixing it now. To offset my lack of movement I got a job. I told the boss to just give me anything where I’m moving, to not allow myself to rest. I want to earn my money and weight loss. Instead of spending two hours on YouTube at home, I’m working and moving for two hours at work. It’s hard since there’s so much sweets at my work but staying strong and not giving in is the only thing will make the change I want to see.

I have 75 more lbs to go but I will achieve it. I just have to stay strong and not giving in.
