5’ 4”/SW: 205 —
This is my first post after years of lurking and silently wallowing about my weight—and it comes after a horrifying and embarrassing incident (I’ll spare you details) but the title sums it up: I broke a chair in front of people I care a lot about and it was the wake up call I needed to have.
I’ve been active on a very modest level but nothing’s budged for me because consistency is my biggest nemesis. I start out so good some days—then succumb to binges and no-movement periods that can last weeks if not months. Quarantine made that worse. The scale hasn’t moved from 205lbs for months now but luckily, it hasn’t gone up either.
After YEARS of battling with the desire to lose weight vs unhealthy eating habits vs my desire to accept/love myself as I am at my current weight, I’m writing this to hold myself accountable and do something different for a change. My efforts have long been kept to my chest, so I figure posting in the one place I secretly turn to might switch something up in my brain.
I’m realizing that you can love yourself as you are AND want yourself to be healthier and stronger and not break your friends chairs.
I’m also curious—is there anything you wish you knew at the start of your journey (or anytime) when it comes to finding and maintaining consistency with your eating and exercising routine? Would love to know if you’re willing to share
