After my posting on Facebook groups a lot of people said I should try calorie deficit. I have no idea where to start with that even though people have already explained things to me.
Background:
For years I have tried having small portions, exercising etc but because I’m autistic I am really fussy with my food.
I’ve tried slimming world, weight watchers, NHS weight management group and nothing worked. The only thing that worked for me was the Mounjaro Jab, but I can’t afford to go back on it unfortunately. We also can’t afford to buy a lot of ingredients to make healthy meals to batch cook either.
Changes/problems:
I started the gym at the beginning of the year, and it was going great because I was going with a group of girls and was going at least 3 times a week. But, then the girls started to not come to the gym anymore which caused my motivation to plummet. I try to think about my goals and push myself to try and go and sometimes it works but other times it doesn’t work out.
It doesn’t help that sometimes I lose motivation a lot and with problems happening at home for over two years, both me and my mum has lost all motivation/mood to cook/batch cook anything no matter how many times we try to push ourselves.
Lately I’ve noticed I have been gaining weight again, and I just feel defeated. My dream weight is to be 168lb (currently 236lb), but right now that feels impossible.
I know the groups that I’m in are to suppose to motivate/support each other (which I love) but seeing everyone’s pictures and achievements just feel impossible for me to achieve.
I don’t know what to do anymore…..
