I refuse to be 22 and fat!

I have finally had enough! I am 21, 5'6 and am pushing obese at 190. I've been able to lie to myself and put off weight loss because my extra weight sits well on my body (as if that's possible) or I guess is distributed pretty evenly. I'm really nervous for two reasons one, I've "been serious" many times before. I truly feel like I mean it this time and am ready to make this a change of a lifestyle and not just another diet, however I am worried. And two, I'm no stranger to crash dieting. Obviously that is terrible for me and the results do not last but it's really hard for me, and everyone I'm sure, to think I'm working hard at something and seeing little to no results. I want to ideally weigh between 135-145, and never get above 155 again. My 22nd birthday is in November and I think I can get around my goal by then.
Any advice or support or recipes or ANYTHING you feel like sharing please do :smile: a lot of this post was just for me to put it out there and vent a little. Thanks!

  • Hey :-)

    I'm 22 and 192lbs. It's also my bday in November and I want to hit my goal by then. Added you as a friend for mutual support. If you want, I can share recipes and stuff I've discovered recently too.
