Hi everyone,
So today November 15, 2020, will be my Day 1.
My stats are 5'5", 30s, F, 259.5 current, 130 goal.
Have you ever walked into a restaurant and have the staff know exactly what you want without you speaking? Have you ever called for take-out and the staff recognize your voice and dictate to you what you were about to order? That has been happening to me these last couple of months in quarantine. I know I should feel good that I get quick service but it makes me feel embarrassed that I eat so much food that people recognize what I look like or the sound of my voice.
I have not been overweight my whole life.
My weight gain started after my mom died and each year I've been slowly gaining more weight.
Oddly enough covid and quarantine have made me want to get out of the house and meet some new people and date. I haven't been on a date in about 8 years (because of a mixture of depression and obesity).
But as I look at myself in the mirror I realize that I'm physically not ready to put myself out there.
I'm self-aware enough regarding my physical appearance to know that if I were a guy I wouldn't want to date me. And from what I remember dating is very visually based and you don't get a second chance at a first impression on these apps.
I would love to lose 90 pounds in order to date (my highest comfortable dating weight).
Today will be my "First Day" of changing my life and taking ownership of my own happiness.
My goal is to lose 130 pounds by December 31, 2021. That gives me 59 weeks (14 months and 3 weeks).
I'm very confident that if I put my mind to something that I can achieve it!
I want to dedicate the rest of this year and next to losing my depression weight and getting in great shape.
P.S. I also plan on finding a therapist by the end of the year.
