I am a freshmen in college, and have managed to turn the "freshmen fifteen" around, and have lost nearly that much.
Since the summer of my junior year of highschool, I have lost 50 lbs. Much of this was done in the summertime, but some in the winter and spring breaks. I was 310 lbs, and am happy to not only be smaller but healthier. I can wear clothing I wore in middle school, and am very happy.
I struggle. I have 60 lbs. left to lose. Now that I know what works for me, I can start (especially now that I have a month off for Christmas break and the house to myself!)
The thing is, if I do lose my weight and get to my goal weight, I'm worried about what will happen. Already I am getting new and different attention from people, some of which in a romantic sense. I worry that if I am more in line with what the world calls "good looking," I will be more tempted to sin. It's my weight and appearance that have kept me from dating and such, but when I feel I'm "good enough," I don't know if I can trust myself to say no to romantic advances and such from others.
I'm not trying to put forth an excuse to me lazy. My doctor has given me the all-clear. I know that one of my crosses to carry is celibacy, however if I lose more weight things will become even more challenging.
What do you think? Do I keep losing or stop?
I'm going to bring this up with Father tonight.
