Hi, Im new to the forums and just wanted to share my experience of trying to lose weight and would love to hear from any1 with tips.
Im 24 yrs old, 5'4 height & i weigh 13stones
I've always felt fat and have always struggled to lose weight...i have been overweight all my life...this is effected my confidence really badly. All my family members are thin and never seem to put weight on.
So my recent attempt to lose weight has lasted to weeks so far, and i have lost 5lbs...but im scared that it may effect my health negatively. my day consists on lemon and hot water, first thing in the morning, then i eat 2 small meals before 6pm and thats it. My calorie intake for the last 2 weeks has not exceeded 800 calories a day and i exercise by walking an hour a day, or doing housework until i am literally sweating and out of breath.
This has been the only method that has worked for me and it seems pretty easy to achieve...should i keep it up or is this not the right way?
I also occasionally make myself sick, i know i shouldnt, but if i feel i am full, then i feel terrible and the only way to stop feeling bad involves me forcing myself to throw up.
This is the first time i have ever openly admitted i may have a problem, but i honestly believe if i lose the weight, then my life will improve drastically.
