To be honest, I fear this journey of losing weight. I've never had to lose such a daunting amount of weight before. I'm truly overwhelmed. But I honestly have no choice. Being morbidly obese at 48, with HBP, COPD, Fibromyalgia... and still dealing with Covid symptoms a year after my diagnosis. My mental health is in the trash....and is partly to blame for my weight being so high. (I have depression, PTSD, agoraphobia, Panic disorder, Generalized anxiety, and situational/social anxiety of being around people.) Throughput all of this I still have family who love me in spite of myself. And a 3 yr old granddaughter who I would die and kill for. She breathed life into this dead soul.... But now I live 1000 miles away from her, and it's added to my emotional eating as well. But if I want to live to see her grow up, I have to do something. I just have to find the strength to fight somehow.

One day at a time, one foot in front of other...easier said than done but it's true. Find a therapist if needed and hopefully you have some family or friend support. Wishing the best for you!🩷🙏

You know what you're running from but also make strong connections to what you're running to. There will be a number of revelations as you change your relationship with food. Most people here will tell you the journey wasn't/isn't always perfect! We fall, we get up and go on.

You have bravely taken several steps in the right direction. I totally agree that you need to know what your short and long term goals are now. They may change along the way. This is a wonderfully diverse, community of supportive people. There are people in all stages of the process.
I would add, Don't be defined by your diagnoses. You are a Beautiful gift to yourself and those around you! You can Do way more than you think you can! Today is the First Day of the Rest of your Life! The only way to fail is to Quit Trying!

It’s a tough road, not going to lie about that, but you can do it. I’ve had a rough time of it, some backslides, but I get back on track and keep going forward. All
that matters is you keep moving forward, regardless of the pace. Forgive yourself for falling down, get up, dust yourself off and keep moving forward towards your goals. I set my goals to 10 lbs at a time…I don’t look towards the end goal, just the current goal in front of me. That’s what has helped me…my mini triumphs…on my way to the end goal.

I sympathize with you, I have C-PTSD, binge eating disorder, ADHD, anxiety, chronic pain from arthritis and had 2 herniated discs..
if there is one question that you can ask yourself on a daily basis to help its this:
"What is the tiniest thing that you can do today to create the biggest impact?"

You have your "Why" to lose weight, and a laundry list of things diagnosed by your doctors. You definitely qualify for a Registered Dietician through your health insurance. They can design a menu based on all your diagnosis. I would be calling your doctor and requesting a referral ASAP. 💚

As far as much of what you are diagnosed with, do you see a therapist?? PTSD will be processed with EMDR (eye movement desensitization reprocessing). I've been working on healing my trauma(25 years worth) with EMDR and its been a huge step in the right direction. Mental wounds keep our bodies sick too, thanks to the stress response. If you are interested in learning about what I'm talking about, I'm referencing a book "Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk"! YouTube has a variety of audio summaries for the book, if reading is a daunting thing.

Thank y'all so much. I'm truly overwhelmed by your encouragement. I don't have a therapist, nor a nutritionist. But I will definitely look into that. Even though we just moved to Pennsylvania, I do have a wonderful Nurse Practitioner, who I feel I can trust and feel comfortable enough to ask for help. (Quite the opposite from living in Alabama.)
Another thing I have, which I'm soooooo lucky for, is my step daughter (who's a nurse) and her husband. They are avid health and fitness enthusiasts. We live in the same house, and share a kitchen. So they will keep me accountable, especially when I don't want them to. We don't eat the same food, but only because I'm a vegetarian. But we do have similar meals at times, so I can just make my meatless substitutes to those options. My biggest challenge is to eat during the day. I'm a once-a-day nighttime binge eater. I haven't eaten like that for several days. I'm not used to it yet.
Again, I truly thank you guys from the bottom of my heart 💜

I would definitely get a therapist now that you've settled into your new home. You will need a doctor in your area, too. You may be related to and living with nurses, but they are not registered dieticians, and you will want that specific education to address all your health needs. What the nurses CAN do is help you stick to the menus that are created by the RD.

We're all here for you but you do have to show up for yourself. See you medical team (find new members if necessary), plan & shop for your weeks worth of meals in advance, get dressed, slap on a smile and move everyday even if it's just dancing around your house to HAPPY music.
Wishing you the very best ❣️

How bad do you really want to be with your granddaughter ?

I’m 49, started my journey at 335 two years ago and now I’m 168, still have 40 to go. My son left to the military states away and getting on a plane to see him was my motivation. Each day is a learning and a step. You can do it! Let your granddaughter be that motivation. I’m always reading people’s posts and I may be one of those silent ones but I’m always happy for everyone’s accomplishments. I will read your success one day too 😁
