My story

[Healthcupid]

I am a 24 old female from India. I am 5'6" and 85 kg. I have been struggling with my body image from child hold. I hai ne da lot of weight during last four years, Specially in covid. My clothes dont fit. Its hard to get outfits that look good on me. All I wear is indian, I like Indian outfits, but sometimes I wish I could also throw a pair of jeans and crop top on me and slay it. Now, I Really want to lose it and become fit. Yes, the primary reason is to look good and fit into the idea of beauty standards. But my health is also getting effected. I feel weak. My bones pain sometimes. I can't lift stuff. My career is physically demanding, and I feel shame when I get exhausted so soon. I wanted to change that. I cant even eat properly. I feel lik puking everytime I eat something remotely healthy. I have been puking out food after binge eating fast food. I have beem doing it for so long. I genuinely need help, company and comfort. And That's what I seek here.

Good evening Healthcupid and welcome to our friendly forum. The pandemic didn't help a lot of people's health in many ways, so you are not alone there. We all have different reason for losing weight and being fitter for you is a good one.

Before i go any further can i suggest you speak to your primary doctor/GP regarding the ongoing binge eating and being sick afterward. That is something they can help you deal with, not this forum.

If you would then like to join us and lose weight in a health and sustainable way we advise you join in with the Weekly Weigh In and Daily Diary as a minimum. You will find these in the Pinned Posts area of the forum, here's a link to take you there. healthunlocked.com/weight-l...

Have a good look through the pinned post, including the Welcome Newbie post which you will help you navigate and understand how everything works.

IBest of luck xx
