I'm 33.
I'm 1m68 (5ft6)
I don't actually know what I weight and I got rid of my scales last year when getting on them just made me cry every time and I was just too depressed to even try and start loosing weight - I have ordered scales and will weight myself tomorrow.
However last time I weighed myself nearly a year ago I was 94kg (14st 11) and I know that I have gained since then.
I started gaining weight the beginning of covid, before 2019 my very highest weight had been 68kg ( 10st10) and my normal weight had been round 62kg for most of my adult life, so I have massively put on weight over these last four years. (Separation, depression, stress at work, and just general giving up).
My body is ruined by stretch-marks and my boobs that used to be great are now just swollen and saggy and stretch marked.
I'm really depressed by my weight and have decided its time to do something about it.
I have an office job and I'm not at all active.
I've tried to start making small changes, walking to the underground instead of getting the bus, getting the stairs up the one flight to my office instead of the lift but everything feels like a struggle and I have such awful thigh chaffing that walking is often excruciatingly painful.
I how I need to make a change because on top of it being so unhealthy being so over weight just makes me so upset. I've stopped going out as much and have just retreated into a shell.
I also have an appointment with a psychologist tomorrow.
I decided last month that enough is enough and I need to do something about it all.
I've started using face cream, and am finally having laser on my very very hairy thighs and - the point of this thread - I'm going to start saxenda tomorrow.
I thought I'd journal here.
