I’ve literally been obese my whole life. My mom once told me she put me on a diet when I was a toddler because I was so big. I was an emotional eater and would binge and purge when I was as young as 9, and it became an occasional habit until I was 19. When I was 20, I weighed myself for the first time in a year and found out that I was 356 lbs. I gained 76 lbs my freshman year of college because of drinking two liters of Fireball every weekend and washing it down with a six-pack of Blue Moon and living off of pizza and the shitty dining hall food.
I finally started to take control in June of 2017 when I found out I was 356 and I gradually made changes. At first, I was going to get a gastric sleeve, but I became too depressed and unmotivated after having financial and legal issues and ended up not showing up to my last two appointments before approval.
I actually started trying to lose weight last December after living in poverty actually caused me to lose 20 lbs. I had not seen 328 in over a year and tried (and failed twice) to do keto, but it did not seem to work until I worked through my mental health and financial issues this past January.
I’m proud to say that by tomorrow morning, I’ll be 300 lbs, a number I haven’t seen in two years. Not drinking has really helped, but I’m doing keto, IF (20:4), OMAD, and eating about 900 cals/day. I’m so happy it’s finally working.
