So there are only 12 minutes until new year and that means that it’s a whole new start for me and to start mye water fast fresh and forget about the past failures that i’ve had and focus on how i’m going to feel and how i’m going to look when i achieve my goal. Good luck to everyone🥳can’t wait
Intro:
Hi, i’m Edona also called Donna by others. I want to lose 60 pounds ( i am 160cm in height and weight 93kg which is 205 pounds for a 17 year old that is obese). I have been overweight my whole life since i was 5/6 years old. Family and friends used to call me fat and chubby and i always felt like i didn’t fit in. In 8th to 9th grade i was surrounded by friends that were using xs or s in clothes size and i was way bigger than them using size M or L. So by the end of 8th grade i decided to start internettene fasting but i was actually not eating or drinking at all just when i fell that i was about to faint. I lost the weight that i wanted and people were noticing and complimenting me so i became more happy even though i was depressed. Because i would walk to school, walk back home from school and just sleep all day and not even seeing my family for many hours. I then made some big changes in my life that made me think that i could eat whatever i want s0 fast forward😂 i am in grade 12 in my last semester and i am the most obese that i have ever been. So this will hopefully help me on my weight loss journey.
Short term goal:
~ to not compare myself to others
~ do things that i like and not be embaressed
~ go down to BMI of 30 (now BMI is 36.3)
*Long term goal:
~ go down to 55kg - 60kg
~love myself instead of ignoring every situation to go out with friends or hang out with family because i feel fat, ugly and just a failure.
~ stop negative thoughts from entering into my brain
~ not stress over my body or if someone is going to love me
What are some struggles you face or you have faced in the past:
-i’ve been getting fat shades from family and friends and that have led me to not going out and having fun like every teenager should be doing and by only staying home locked in my room and only coming out of my room just to go to the kitchen and Get food and take it in to my room to eat because i feel like everybody is judging me so i have gotten anxiety from people and places. Whenever now i mention to my family that i am going to change my way of eating they don’t believe in me anymore.
What is your game plan:
-i have tried all types of diets but the ones that have actually worked really good for me is OMAD and water fasting. So i was thinking of starting a 30 day waterfast and then 10 day OMAD and then back to waterfast and then 15 day OMAD and so on till June.
How do i feel right now:
-i feel excited, overwhelmed, stressed, and kind of hungry and it has only been 2h and 41minutes since i started water fasting hahaha Wish me luck.
How will i feel when i achieve my goal:
-i think i will feel like not only losing weight physically but also mentally, like i will feel finally free from all this mantally stress that i have carried in so many years. I think i will finally start to love myself, live my body and apreciate myself more:)
Daily affirmation:
-i am strong enough, this time i am going to succesed, i will finally Get to be where i have stramt of being. I am a champion and a fighter and In Sha Allah won’t give up. January 2021 i am going to make this MY YEAR:heart:
