Hello world, I’m B, 25 yo in the Netherlands.
First of all, this blog is not about skinny apologia, I’m totally against fatphobia, so this is not my aim.
So, why do I want to lose weight? Well, I also fight for the right of having your body the way you want. As long this body is mine and I’ve been fat for a while, now I wanna try a smaller body, and this is what I’m gonna do.
As I said, I’ve been fat since my adolescence, and always ashamed and afraid of people’s judgment, I’ve became a sad teenager, negative and lonely.
I lost weight several times and got them back again, and again.
My highest weight was around 100kg (220 pounds), and after a party seeing my pictures with my friends, I realized I was big, unhealthy and unhappy. Then I started my weight loss journey slowly, but positive. Months later I met a guy for whom I fell in love, and in my mind he would only love me back if I were skinny.
That guy fell with me as well, and he was sorta supportive with my weight loss. Well, it really helped me, I lost 20kg (44 pounds) in five months. I was happy, proud and more than anything, healthy.
But four months later this guy found someone new, left me and I’ve found myself depressed again. I couldn’t stop eating. I gained 15kg (33 pounds) back.
After being in the dumps for a short while, which means 6 months, I’ve met na amazing guy, who now is my boyfriend and he loves me the way I want. He’s not ashamed of my size and never make fun of it. It makes me love him even more.
So this is why I want to lose weight and have my healthy life back: because now the only reason is BE HOWEVER I WANT TO.
I’m constantly feeling tired in my work, getting sick, and losing sleep and I’m quite sure these are results of my unhealthy life.
I don’t care about clothes, about what men think or anyone also judgment. I love my curves and every piece of my body is amazing. Not body negativity, just a new version of me, like when you change profession or style.
I’m happy and I hope keeping motivated, I don’t have an exactly final weight goal, just think whatever I think it’s nice or my body wants.
