actually hilarious that in over a decade of adult life and probably a double digit number of failed attempts at dieting and losing weight, the one thing that's motivated me enough to stick with it the longest was not "i want to look hot" nor was it "i want to stop ruining the inner thighs of all my pants" nor even "i want to reduce my risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer" but instead, somehow, it was "as i've gotten heavier over the years my heartburn has gotten progressively worse and more frequent until it's basically on a hair trigger, and by god i WILL enjoy orange juice again if it's the last fucking thing i do"

#in the end it was my love for food that would motivate me to lose weight. who'd have thought #i swear heartburn makes me so angry especially when it comes out of NOWHERE #and unlike most symptoms where being overweight is baselessly attributed to it heartburn actually makes sense #more weight around the middle -> more pressure on the stomach -> higher risk of acid getting pushed up #anyway #dieting cw #weight loss cw #so far so good! i'm down 5-6lbs and feeling great with all the fruits and veggies and whole grains #and my heartburn is already getting less frequent 😌#me
