Hi i'm 18 and i've lost 25 lbs and I have 40 lbs to go these past two months i've been struggling so much. How can I motivate myself, being overweight really ruined my life mentally and i dont want to live this way anymore..
Thanks :)

    I recently got back on the wagon. My first goal is 25 pounds. My overall goal is 50. I feel like being overweight is the source of a lot of my anxiety and I can't wait to break free!

    I've got 40lbs left too! I've already lost 119lbs so I'm in the final stretch. First and foremost. You must love yourself the way you are now. Feeling bad about yourself in your current skin will do nothing to help you move forward. I know it sounds like a bunch of mumbo jumbo, but I had really gotten into the body positivity movement before I got to a place where I was ready to lose weight. I needed to be happy just as me without the scale being involved. I know that is a tall order. You've already proven that you can lose weight and you know what you need to be doing. Just keep going and be proud of your accomplishments!
