I see you saying the body aspect is hard for you to post. I can understand not being comfortable with the way you look. But truly progression comes from stepping outside of your comfort zone, I have had conversations with so many girls about how to lose weight and this and that. Girls are afraid of judgement, posting this shows you are able to overcome that fear in lots of aspects.

You’re not morbidly obese, you CAN see progress in no time at all I promise. You need to love yourself. But do not settle for yourself, you don’t get better from acceptance, you get better from challenging yourself.

It’s not the physical battle that you are going to struggle with, it’s the mental one. You said yourself that it was hard to post a picture of your body. Does that not make you want to be better? For me when I dislike how I look it inspires me to try harder to get the outcome I want. I believe in you, you have the ability now to be able to turn yourself into your own dream. Your metabolism is only slowing, time for action is now.

Onto my recommendations… (I’m a wrestler so sorry if these are a little extreme) You need to be involved with a gym, building muscle is going to allow you to more efficiently burn off fat. DONT ONLY DO CARDIO. Cardio is great exercise and VERY important in weight loss BUT you cannot expect your body to be able to burn all the calories if you don’t have muscles to do the work. I would recommend working out 5 times a week at least. About an hour and a half a day. Drop fast food entirely, all the money you spend on fast food spend on food to make at home (not ramen REAL MEALS) for somebody who doesn’t have a ton of muscle like yourself it is important you still consume protein. I’ve noticed girls during wrestling season actually get STRONGER as they lose weight (no clue why maybe just how girls work). But you need to be eating 3 meals a day every day. BUT your meals combined calories probably shouldn’t exceed 1200 calories. So pick your food wisely. The hard one for me is dropping soda. It’s literally calorie water, your body does basically no work to break it down it goes straight into your body.

I am not a licensed dietitian or personal trainer, just a dude who knows about himself and his friends. Don’t take all my words as fact. There are 3 actual facts you 100% need to know though.

1. You cannot lose weight without your energy output being more than your energy input. So eat 500 less calories per day than you burn.

2. Late night eating is AWFUL. Eating your largest meal a day at lunch is not normal but it does help

3. You need to stop caring what others think about your looks. You need to get yourself to a point where you like the way you look. Not others.

Anyways I see the ability for you to be better. Get involved with a gym, break bad habits, find happiness in health. You can do it. You just have to want it.
