This is going to be my year

-

Every year since I was about seventeen (and first reached 220lbs which would have made me cry had my mother not have been present) I've told myself I was going to change, this year it's finally going to happen because I have actually started paying attention to what my body says and have come up with a plan. I'm constantly munching on something so instead of eating a few large meals I will eat several smaller balanced ones (I like to call it the Hobbit diet lol).

First off I'm going to start waking up at a decent hour (I have issues falling asleep so often I'll be up until 3 sometimes 5 in the morning) but I'll make myself get up and stay up at 8. Now, every morning I wake up feeling starved, like "I'm going to be sick" starved (you ever get that?) So first thing is eating a cup of yogurt and some fruit just to get rid of that feeling while I get showered/dressed and then it's time for breakfast (or second breakfast lol).

Every meal will be small portioned and mostly fruit and veggies with some meat (I'm going to try to stay away from bread for a while) and every day I will go for a 30 minute walk and even when I'm just sitting watching TV I'll be using that weight I bought and haven't touched since.

I have very simple meals planned out and alarms set to remind me to get my ass moving. If I stick to it I'm hoping I can fall asleep at a decent hour, which means no more fighting to get up and not nap at some point in the day.

As of right now I, 22 year old female am 5'7 weighing about 214. My goal is to be about 170 by New Years.

I've lurked on here for awhile but never posted. Seeing all the changes you guys made helped my girlfriend and I finally start thinking about our health and the future. We we're around 280-270 at 5ft 8in. We promised to lose weight in January and decided to run with it. After looking at all the different ways people lost weight, we decided that trying to go vegetarian and counting calories would probably work the best. We limited ourselves to 1600 calories a day and kept at it. I eventually went back to meat simply because the vegetarian meat substitute was starting to get expensive (I can buy chicken patties and get twice as much for the same price). We haven't exercised one bit but we are looking forward to hiking and doing more Sports this summer. I used to BMX race when I was younger and I really want to get back to doing that or mountain biking. The biggest hurdle for me to get over was to stop stress-eating. I've had long standing issues with some mild depression

I’ve been “trying” to lose weight since June. I am OFFICIALLY starting tomorrow.

-
Tomorrow is the first of the month AND the first of a week, so it seems as good a time as any to get started. I got engaged in June of last year, and wanted to start losing weight for my upcoming wedding in July then. But I just... didn’t. I tried lazily to eat a little bit better and work out a bit, but I never made a commitment. I would LOVE if I would have started in June. I’d be so much further along! But now, I’m starting tomorrow. So in 3 months I don’t say “I’d be in such a better place if I started in April!” A quote I really love is: “The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is now.” So let’s get it! Excited to join this incredible and welcoming community, and finally lose this weight. submitted by /u/lilspaghettigrandma [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/loseit/comments/b7vfnk/ive_been_trying_to_lose_weight_since_june_i_am/
