Real post, when I got out of high school I was thin and fit. I hit the gym at uni, had fucken abs and looked great.

Then medical poo poo (not related to weight) hit me and I got depressed. Severely depressed. I stopped working out. I stopped caring what I ate. I got pretty large. At my height probably 330+ lbs. I wasn't happy with that but I wasn't happy with anything.

Eventually I started to improve my life and I started fixing my eating and exercise routine. I lost weight. Healthily at first. Then very not. By the end of it I realised I had a problem when I went under 50kg/110lbs, and ended up unable to function and diagnosed with anorexia. I'm 5'9" and my ideal healthy weight is roughly 80kg/175lbs. I can go lower but I look fantastic for my height and build.

The reality of going from severely overweight to severely underweight fucks you up. Neither is nice. I'm doing way better now, both mentally and physically. I work out but not too much, I eat good amounts of good food, but don't overly restrict myself.

But this poo poo is hard to get out of. My life is far more stable and I don't find myself in danger of going either way again, but when I get severely stressed my first response is to limit intake of food, and I have to consciously fight that.

I can, however, assure you I didn't eat plastic?

Hey I had a very similar journey to you, just skewed a little younger. Depression and family poo poo had me pack on weight in middle school until the point I was 210 in 8th grade. And you know how middle schoolers can be when it comes to teasing.

So I took it upon myself to start exercising and I watching what I ate. The first 20lbs lost were super encouraging, but then I took it too far, too quickly. At the beginning of 10th grade, I was 6’1 and 127lbs. I intentionally limited myself to only about 800-1000 calories per day, and I stayed like that until halfway through college.

I’m much better now, but eating disorders are a bitch, and body dysmorphia never really goes away. Even at 160lbs I have to stop myself from thinking I look pudgy.

It’s very easy. Become depressed. Stop eating. In fact you should only eat when you’re about to pass out at work. You will lose so much weight that it’s scary. Eventually try to kill yourself and when you wind up in the psych ward they’ll say “hey buddy you’re a couple pounds away from being dangerously underweight” and make you eat. But you’ll be so skinny that eating anything other than a reasonable portion is impossible. Problem solved.

It's absolutely insane how effective Wegovy is. I honestly worry that there is going to be a massive backlash once it is more available, because it is a very serious threat to the profit margins of the fast food and junk food industries.

People like me before Wegovy, whose sense of satiation had been completely destroyed by terrible childhood eating habits, are going out and eating fast food every single day. We are by far that industry's most profitable customers. Now that I'm on Wegovy, though, I spend a fraction of what I used to on junk food.

So don't be surprised when the fast food industry starts whipping up the HAES movement to try and convince people that they shouldn't actually cure their obesity. They're going to lie about its effectiveness. They're going to lie about the side effects. They're going to try and convince you that it is somehow less healthy than carrying a huge amount of extra adipose tissue.

Not depressed enough. I recommend endless long nights staying awake contemplating the meaninglessness of existence. I mean what exactly are you? Under 100kg and under a hundred years. An infinitesimally small amount of matter and infinitesimally small amount of time. Far closer to nothing than something. Anyways good luck with your weight loss journey.
