This text will be unnecessary long because I feel like ranting about my process and progress of weight loss and weight and body related mindset. It will contain some numbers and mentions of disordered eating so warning before you read, if you do. For a few years I’ve been struggling with an eating disorder called bulimia, I want to mention that I’m very young currently as well. I was diagnosed with the disorder about a year ago and was supposed to get in contact with a clinic specified for that stuff this summer, but that never happened. I don’t know why, but they never contacted me or my parents after that. So I’ve been trying to recover by myself for the past half year. At first I of course didn’t want to recover, I just wanted results and to loose weight. My relationship with food and my view on my weight and everything related to that was insanely bad. I had basically no knowledge about anything. I had gained weight because of the pandemic like many others, which resulted in even worse self imagine. A year after I lost a lot of weight because of my disordered eating, and I weighed about 65kg. My weight took a turn after that even though my relationship with food didn’t better at all, and I gained about 10kgs. I was very very dissatisfied, and my depression on top of that wasn’t helping at all. I never got any professional help for either of my diagnosed disorders, even though I was very much in need. December 2022 was when I finally started feeling a bit well again, and I wanted to regain a healthy relationship with food and become healthier and possibly even learn to enjoy things. The start of my weight loss journey I was pretty much clueless and went on based on solely my previous knowledge of weight loss related things. I tried doing research but apparently it wasn’t very successful. I just ate less and tried not to eat sugar, I didn’t consume enough protein and other important stuff. I did an unnecessary amount of cardio. Then holidays came and I gave up, my depression become a bit worse again and it took a while for me to get back into it. January 17th I started logging my food, doing hiit workouts and other stuff. Of course I still wasn’t educated enough, but I was trying. Later on, I started using my fitness pal and tracked basically everything I ate (not completely properly), it was a long process. Basically about a bit less than a month ago I started tracking everything everything I ate, started sleeping more than 7 hours a day, drink 2-3l a day, take my vitamins, exercise as much as I can and eat in a calorie deficit. In those 7 weeks I lost 8kgs, and today I reached 65,5kgs. I am insanely proud and happy, and I wish you guys luck as well. Seriously, don’t give up, eventually you’ll get it!!!
