I need to lose A LOT. I started at 370lbs and then I dropped down to 340lbs. Which I'm proud of. and that was because I was taking my dog for a walk 2 times a day. Now, I can hardly get myself to get out of the house. I dread going for walks. I dread feeling like I will struggle to have energy or stamina on the walk. However, I know that in order to build up my endurance, I need to just get out and do it. Feeling like I won't be able to walk very far or get tired easily is what keeps me from leaving the house.
I don't really have anyone to talk to or walk with as my dog doesn't do well with other dogs, and I don't want to join a walking group because then I would feel guilty leaving him at home and not walking him even though I know he needs it. Playing music on walks doesn't help motivate me to get out the door.
My brother, who is in the army and who deadlifts, told me some things to do, but getting started or staying motivated to do stuff is hard to do.
I can't join a gym at the moment because I haven't had work for a couple of months, but even if I did, I know I'm lazy and won't want to go to the gym. I have anxiety when it comes to time counting down. So, after work, I would only be able to think about how I don't have much time left until I have to go to bed for work.
I need to find a new therapist, but whilst I am on Medicaid until I start my new job, I don't know if I will find a good one. Also, lack of money is an issue. I have tried finding some and they don't seem like very good options.
I also did Noom for awhile. I know everything that I need to do. I suffer with Binge Eating Disorder (B.E.D.) which I don't know if people believe fat people can have. So, for a couple of years, it was hard to not Binge until I was able to get on Vyvanse for B.E.D. but stopped this year because I had to leave my job in February for mental health reasons. Now, I got to a point where I have it managed and don't stuff myself to an uncomfortable state. However, my problem is that I don't eat until almost late at night now. I don't feel hungry until my body is starving, which is now causing the binging to start again but not like I used to. I get full like a regular human and don't have my brain telling me that I need to eat until I feel like I'm going to throw up.
I just really needed to get this out. What do you do to motivate yourselves to keep going or even just to get out the door to excercise?
