Hello, I am new here. I'm a 23 year old man and my main hobby is music. I figured I need a place that helps keep my mind focused in the right direction in my weight loss journey, and this seemed like a good fit. Most of the places I was browsing when I was in a bad state of mind were very negative energy, so I have cut them out and am replacing my time on the internet with more positive voices. At my highest weight I was 450+ lbs, but got myself down to 350 after 3 months of sobriety and a manual labor job in early 2018. This was back when I was working. After that, I became unemployed after missing work due to getting blackout drunk every night and abusing energy drinks just to make it to work every day and fell off the wagon back into alcoholism and a life of shame and regret. 9 days ago, I weighed myself for the first time since October 2018. I was back up to 370. Today, I am 9 days sober and down to 346 lbs. I am now looking forward to each and every day! Nice to meet you all.
