Feedback Request: Weight Loss Struggles when Morbidly Obese



Recommended Posts

I know your time is valuable, so I'll get to the point. I need your advice!! I'm considering writing a book about being morbidly obese and the struggles related to it and also how losing weight has improved my quality of life. For reference, I've lost over 250 pounds myself. I really want to make sure I don't leave anything out. So, will you let me know your biggest struggle and,if you were able to overcome it, how did you do it? It can be anything... even if you think it's silly.

  • being denied insurance
  • Being discriminated against when applying for jobs
  • not being able to wipe your own butt or wash it properly in the shower because you can't reach
  • not being able to put on socks. Difficulty putting on pants and underwear because it requires some bending
  • Health issues related to morbid obesity - type II diabetes; high blood pressure; pressure sores, blisters under folds of skin, rubbing of legs, lethargy, depression....
  • In my country I cant find nice plus size clothing
