Newbie with a goal
Hi everyone! I'm new on this site, but I'm not really new to dieting at all. I was always a chubby kid and mainly because of teasing of other kids I went on my first diet when I was 13. They were mostly short term and effective, but only for a while. I would lose a lot of weight and then gain it back even quicker. I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with this too. I've tried almost everything by now. I'm only 19 and I think I've tried out around 20 types of diets lol that's bad. My main problem is that I'm an emotional eater and with me moving often and being a medical student, I tend to binge eat a lot, especially before exams. Exercise is mostly nonexistent, as I barely have time for sleep let alone time for gym. Now that I hit my ultimate high of 195 pounds, I have decided it's definitely time for a change.
I have made my own home version of weight watchers and I'm trying to follow the whole point system. This is my day 3 so far and I love it! I already feel so much better and the water weight is going down. Hopefully, this will be a program I will stay on for longer. My goal weight is 145 and I know I have a long way to go. This is just another attempt to motivate myself. Because in the end I deserve it. I even make short daily notes on evernote with motivational pictures lol. But it helps me stay on track.
