I just want to start this post by saying that I'm not overweight, and never in my life have I ever been overweight. I know this subreddit is supposed to be for people who work hard to lose their weight, but I have another problem.
Ever since I was a kid I ate whatever I wanted, sometimes going all day only eating sweets, I always did whatever (health wise) and I didn't care for my health at all because I was always at perfect weight. I always thought that if I'm not overweight, I'm perfectly healthy. Well, that's not the case any more.
I'm an adult now and my lifestyle can no longer be the same. Sure I still have perfect weight, but I recently (a year ago) discovered that I have high cholesterol. I'm 20 years old and I'm supposed to still be healthy at my age, but spending all day on my pc or just hanging out and chilling is really impacting my life. Especially not eating properly. My doctor told me that I should really start at least walking, but I never found the motivation. That was until yesterday.
I love reading this subreddit because people here are (mostly) so positive and it just lifts my spirit. The past few days there has been an overwhelming amount of people being happy with their goals that it really motivated me to finally take my health seriously and stop living my life like this. I have worked out 2 days in a row because of the motivation I got from this subreddit.
I know it's not much, and I don't even know if it's going to last because I'm such a lazy procrastinator, but if you all made ME change my ways, I don't doubt that you have helped many more determined people than me. Thank you.
