Hi, I've always wanted to lose weight. I've always been a bigger kid (thanks mom), and those bad habits have been carried into my adult life as well. Now I have full control over what I eat. I buy my own food and can decide what, when and how I eat. But I still am having a hard time to lose weight. Why? Because whenever I try, I have always given up.
My plan is simple. First goal everyday is to count my calories. Everything. In the past, it has gone well whenever I've counted calories. Until the day I eventually go over my set limit, feel ashamed and don't count that day. Then I don't count the next day. And then after that I stop trying at all.
I don't want that. I need to get out of this black and white thinking. I don't need to be perfect, I don't need to lose everything this week (altough that would have been nice) but I do need to get this in check.
I'm 22F and as of this morning I weighed 98,6 kg (about 217 pounds). And I'm no taller than 168 cm (about 5'6). So according to my BMI, I need to grow taller.
I want better for myself. So therefore I'm so happy that I've actually managed to stay somewhat consistent with counting calories. Even on the days I've gone over. Which I have, sadly. But I'm still proud of myself for counting. Because it's so much easier to stay consistent when you keep somewhat track of what you eat. Before, I would have given up the day I went over my calories.
We all deserve to feel good in our bodies. Thank you for reading.
