So I'm 29, male, 5'11" and about 450 lbs. My highest weight was about 490 so I've lost a little weight already (over about 2-3 years). Long story short, I haven't really started my weight loss journey.
For context, when I was in high school I lost about 100 lbs on a really restrictive diet. I was eating about 800 calories a day and doing ridiculous levels of cardio to try to reach zero. It got to a point where I would lose my vision when I stood up. My life was miserable and at 128 lbs I still felt fat.
Eventually, after a doctor told me I was developing a heart problem, something broke in me. I began to eat everything in sight, thus ending me up at the weight I am at now. I need to get serious about losing weight, but part of it has me really scared.
On one hand, I'm scared of failure. On the other I'm scared of losing control like I did in high school. Every time I try to initiate a lifestyle change, I stick with it for a month or two, and then fall off for the same amount of time if not longer. Each time I fall off it feels like a part of me has died inside.
Does anyone know how I can overcome this fear and get started on my weight loss journey?
