Hello, i am 5’7 160 pounds 24 years old. i spent the last 5-6 years eating junk, doordashing everyday and withering away my body composition, money and mental health. i used to weigh 180 at my highest weight in 2022. i went through an extreme mental health decline and lost 25 pounds in 2-3 months. i wasn’t healthy at all and i was really struggling keeping my food down. i since then have been gaining and losing the same 10 pounds. i’ve been stuck at 155-165. i struggle heavily with discipline and eating healthy. i never wanted to learn how to cook and it all seems so daunting in my head. finally only 3 months ago have i put an end to my doordash addiction, this is the longest i’ve gone without doordashing junk food. i’ve learned to eat more at home and come up with super easy meals. not the healthiest but definitely an improvement. i hate my body. i cry frequently about how i look and where i hold most of my weight. (upper body, stomach and face) i look bigger than i am because of my body composition. i dont drink alcohol and i don’t smoke. i used to vape but i quit, its been 6 months. the hunger i have felt since, has been haunting me. i’m hungry 24/7 i cant stop thinking about food and wanting to be skinny. i’m going on a big trip this summer and all i want is to feel comfortable in my skin. i need to be eating at 1,400 calories a day to achieve my weight goal. but why does that feel so unattainable? why do i feel like i can’t succeed? why does the patience you need feel so overwhelming? i can’t shake the feeling off of thinking i can’t do it. thinking of wanting it now. wanting to starve and lose as fast as possible but i know i can’t even do that if i tried. (i don’t want to) i just want to be healthy and give myself reasonable goals. i want to have motivation to get my steps in, not even go to the gym just go on a walk. how do i force my brain to lock in? i dont want to take medications so please dont even bother recommending me that. but seriously how do i get my thoughts out of this funk, i constantly feel like i’m losing time. i want to be better for myself. how do i ease myself into staying consistent? please help sorry about how long this is i don’t have anyone else i want to talk to about this id rather rant to strangers on reddit
