#1 issue in America... obesity

please enjoy and let this inspire you to accomplish all of your goals, without further adu this is my story of how I lost weight.

Back story

During the summer of 2019 my dad and I were going to Columbia to go see my physical therapist and we had fun but on the way back I started looking at apps to help you loose weight and they all cost money or were to hard to follow. I found one and I downloaded it and I was like oh this is cool. But I had tried diets before and they were all trash as in none of them worked. But the next week I was going on vacation to Greenville, S.C. I completely ignored the app and it wasn’t until I got back from the trip that I started to use it.

The TEA

It was the day after I returned from vacation and I weighed and it was outrageous I weighed 205.8 pounds at the age of 13 and wore a size extra - large shirt. After that ( mom I know you're reading this so don’t talk to me about it I don’t want to)I went to my room and cried then I went to sleep. I woke up the next day and I decided I would use the app so when I woke up I weighed, 204.3, I put that into the app and it told me how many calories I could have to eat that day. So I did good and I did this for I think 3 months and I was seeing great progress, I went from a size Xl ,to a large then a medium. I am still loosing weight by just cutting out a lot of sugar , and not over filling myself as well as just being reasonable.

What not to do

What not to do is compare yourself to other people, if someone else is doing something to loose weight and it is working for them that’s great… for them but that doesn’t mean that it will work for you. Don’t do what somebody else does and then it not work and you get discouraged, you have to understand that everybody is different and you might have to try multiple things for it to work.

Nothing is wrong with you

Just because you are not happy with your weight does not mean that you are ugly or gross or should be sad about it. You can change your mentality and embrace your size, because you are beautiful just the way you are , and you don’t have to
