annoellyn Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Hi! I have finally decided that I need to take my own fate into my own hands and do something about it. I am a 28 year old female who has been up and down with weight my whole life. Though for the past 10 years, it's been way way up. I have attempted to eat healthy but depression and just not caring about myself enough has always gotten in the way. I really love cosplay but have always dressed up as characters that already suit my body type, like Ursula from Little Mermaid, original Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland, etc. It's still fun but I want to have the confidence to cosplay as anyone and my weight really holds me back from that. Right now I am 5'0 and 195 pounds. I have a long way to go but the only thing stopping me is myself! 1 Quote Link to comment
imprimis5 Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Welcome! I think you'll find yourself right at home here. In regards to mental health struggles, you're definitely not alone. That was what was keeping me from taking action for so long, too. But with a little discipline and pretending like I have the energy, sometimes I can even trick my own body into believing it wants to get healthy. ;-) 1 Quote Rangers, ho!
