Hi. Anyways, I'm a 20 year old art student that has been overweight ever since childhood. I have struggled with dieting, and have tried....everything. Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, ketosis based diets.... while having some results but things became so miserable that I gained all my weight back incredibly fast. Usually faster than I got it off.
Currently....I'm between 248-251 lbs at 5'6". My goal until next summer or fall is to lose 100+ lbs and get around 120-135. I need advice on what I should be eating and exercising like in order to maintain the results afterward.
I've read article after article about how people who have always been obese that they will never keep the weight off. I WANT TO DEBUNK THAT. I want to be the best person I can be and be able to wear whatever I want to wear.
I'm also super afraid of my skin not snapping back... that's my worst fear.
So, that's my life currently. I'll be starting serious soon, and I need all the help and support I can get.
