Hi everyone, first post. I turned 28 Thursday and instead of celebrating I felt so bad I was unable to truly enjoy my birthday. I feel like such a failure...
I am 350 pounds, the heaviest I have ever been. I am a 5'7.5" female. I've always been morbidly obese, even as a teenager. I don't know what a normal weight feels like and I definitely don't know where to start with being healthy. I don't know if it should be CICO or Keto. I have zero clue where to begin, but I do know i have to start right now.
I have many health issues related to my weight. I can barely hold down my job because it has become so hard to stay on my feet. I have high cholesterol and blood pressure and peripheral artery disease. My legs are perpetually swollen and hurt constantly. I can hardly sleep at night because the pain and anxiety of worrying about my health keeps me awake. I know I am bad off and only getting worse.
I don't know about ultimate goal weights. It is hard to imagine being in the 100s at all, really. I don't know that I can even exercise much right now. I'm not sure what to eat everyday or how to begin with tracking.
I'm posting as an introduction, for any advice that anyone wants to offer, and maybe some encouragement that I can actually do this. I took my before pics. I consulted my doctor (she recommended tracking calories with mfp).
I'm ready. Not one hundred percent confident in my ability to overcome this. But ready to start trying.
