Hello! I am new here and looking to get more motivated to lose weight. I am 5'1 and am currently around 195, been trying to get the number down for a while but nothing I try seems to work
I'm 17 (18 very soon) and go to an online school (which means I do a lot of sitting around all day, which probably doesn't help). I used to
gain weight when restricting myself to 1200 calories per day (was on this plan for several months, so it's not like I tried for 2 weeks and wasn't happy with results), so now I'm down to 800-1000 depending on what I decide to eat that day (typically a lot of veggies and protein). I try to go to the gym every other day and do a mile of fast walking (have a knee issue so can't run without pain) or biking combined with weights. I'm a cosplayer and I'm also into Japanese fashion (more specifically lolita) and want to look (and feel) better for both hobbies. I have a convention coming up in July, so I am more motivated than I normally am to shed some pounds and get closer to my goal!
