For context, I’m 21 (about to turn 22), I’m in my senior year of college, and my life feels like it’s coming back to normal ever since the pandemic started. I go to a city school and most of my social life revolves around bars, parties, and anything alcohol related. I love my friends very much and our relationships are much deeper than going out and drinking, but often times, we are surrounded by alcohol.
I am well aware of the calorie content in alcohol… it’s not pretty lol. I honestly blame my alcohol consumption for the current weight I’m at. I also tend to binge or eat shitty food after a night of drinking which makes me pack on even more weight.
There’s a large part of me that wants to take a break from my social life, focus on myself, and lose 40 pounds so I can feel like myself again. I don’t think it will be possible for me to lose any weight if I keep drinking the way that I have been drinking. In order to avoid all temptation and to stick to my goals, I feel like I need to isolate from all opportunities that involve alcohol. But at the same time, I’m 21 and have so many experiences to make. I don’t want to hold myself back from living my life and meeting new people.
I’m sorry this is such a ramble, but I wanted to know if anyone else has struggled with their social life getting in the way of their weight loss goals?? How did you balance it? Or should I just work on myself for the next 7 months in order to reach my goal?
