This is the first time I'm posting on Reddit so sorry if the formatting is weird.
15M 5'3" SW:260 CW:260 GW:160 Attending school with little to no time for exercise.
As you read in the title, I'm 15 and extremely obese. For as long as I can remember I've been pretty large but nowhere near as bad as I am currently. My weight has caused severe body image issues and I am extremely unhappy in my body. I feel embarrassed to go outside and I'm certain that other people don't like being seen with me either.
This problem is due to several factors: constantly stress eating, lack of motivation, lack of exercise, and eating foods that are horrible for me. The best explanation I have as to why I do this is because every time I try to do something beneficial to my health I tell myself "There's no way you can lose 100 pounds, it'll be easier to just give up". Unfortunately I've give up every time I've tried to lose weight. In the past couple of years, I can't remember one time I was losing weight consistently and that destroys any motivation I have. I'm not opposed to changing my eating habits, but every time I try, I inevitably go back to the way I ate before. I'm also extremely busy with school and have almost no time to myself, not to mention exercise. I wouldn't mind exercising, but I just can't find any time to do it.
I don't know if this is the right subreddit to ask but it was the first one I thought of. If I asked in the wrong place feel free to delete my post.
