I must be missing something
I've struggled with unhealthy/disordered eating and body habits for a long time. Since I was eight. I've never been severely overweight but I've gained and lost weight throughout my childhood. Im still a high school student now and I want to lose weight more than anything. It's all I think about, and it's way past the point where hanging out with friends smaller than me could make me cry and I pathetically avoid going out or even buying clothes because I know it'd cause me to spiral. I am short. 5'0 and 145 lbs.
It feels so embarrassing to post this on the internet for everyone to see but I'm at my wits end. I know all of you would probably say for me to do the usual, work out, eat healthily, handle my stress. But I have been working out consistently, almost everyday. And not small workouts either, but weight lighting, wrestling, running. I never let myself get off track with eating either. Not even the small slip-ups. I don't use oil, and I stick by my food scale. Yet in this time, I'd only lost ten pounds. And I looked EXACTLY the same. I'd be crying every night about it.
A year ago, I got tested for my thyroid levels and they came back abnormal, a few tests later however and they were perfectly fine. The doctors said my levels were slightly abnormal, but not enough to heavily interfere with my fat loss journey. My mom finally gave into my begging and put me on a GLP-1.
It's been five months and I've lost only 11 pounds. This is me eating one meal a day, no more than 1200 cals a day because I had a deal with my mom to not under eat heavily. I fear thats the most weight I'll lose before I hit a plateau, (because this happened time and time again) and I don't know what to do.
Especially with all these people around me in my family losing weight faster than me, I just feel like i'm wasting my mother's money. Its terrible. I don't know what I am missing. Can someone please help me out?
