Losing weight helps, but doesn't solve all of your problems.

Almost a year and a half ago, I decided it was finally time to make a change about my life. 18 years old and 365 pounds, it was time. I was super unhappy and figured my quality of life would drastically improve.

Now after losing close to 200 pounds, I've realized you gotta work on your mind too.

Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of things that are better. Some days I even feel confident in myself. But please make sure your mental health is also in check if you're losing weight to better yourself. It is equally as important as your physical health. If you're like me, you'll finally be done and now you sit there and think "Is this it?". Losing weight won't make you instantly attractive, or suddenly solve your social issues. You gotta make that change separately. But I really believe in myself and everyone here.
