I’m a 17 year old male. I haven’t always been overweight; just the past 6-7 years maybe. I’m 250 pounds at 5’10 (around 90-100 pounds overweight for my age and height.) I used to be super athletic and social when I was in elementary school. I played sports and had fun with friends at their houses. My soccer team became the best in the state right around the time that my weight started accumulating. It was holding me back. I quit a few years later which crushed my family as they believed in me and my future with the sport. It’s my biggest regret by far and something I will regret forever, no matter what. I am probably the most self conscious person on the entire planet because of my weight. I hide under sweatshirts and don’t like going out in public that much. I would never be able to get my first job in my current state, there’s no way. I miss having friends and being confident enough to do things with them. I miss swimming and having fun outside in the summer. I miss a lot of things. I feel like I’m not experiencing the things that you’re supposed to be experiencing in your teenage years. I don’t talk to girls, I don’t go to parties (which is fine, I don’t like drinking, etc.) I haven’t been to a friends house or had a sleepover in a couple years, something I used to have a blast doing. I’ve lost all my confidence and wish that things would be different. I know that losing the weight is the only option as I will never come to peace with my current body. I won’t be able to function in society. For as long as I can remember I’ve been “trying” to become healthier. The farthest I’ve ever gotten was about 20 pounds. I eventually gave up and gained the majority of it back, which just made my situation so much worse. After hundreds of attempts and even going to see a dietitian, I’m still stuck I’m aware of how much my life could change if one day I decided. I just can’t find the motivation anywhere. I’ve ruined many years of my life that I won’t be able to get back. I’m tired of being confined to my room. I want to be normal again..
