In this endless stream of Snapchat garbage, I swear she talks like she just finished binge watching Trisha Paytas, and she's involuntarily (maybe) trying to be just like her (annoying lip smacking and all)!
Is she really saying she can't find motivation to lose weight anymore? AL, your entire existence is motivation to lose weight. You're incredibly isolated, you can't even lift your legs completely off the ground when you waddle, your skin is visibly darkening all over the place. I would imagine every step is a painful reminder of why you should lose weight.
Then talking about donating all her processed food to less fat people? AL, believe it or not, it's not so much what you eat but how much of it. Most people have trouble with gigantic lifestyle changes; it's understandable. You're setting yourself up for failure by telling yourself there's no other way to do it. Sure, you might be able to feel less hungry eating the same amount of calories in fruit and vegetables versus processed foods, but you claim you hate fruit so that's likely to just make you hate weight loss. Eat what you enjoy eating, but don't make every meal dessert and don't eat 1,200 calories a sitting. Learn to eat normal amounts of food and at your size, regardless of what crap your putting in your mouth (just how much of it), the weight will still come right off.
Learn what full feels like- not stuffed. Then learn what not hungry feels like. Get comfortable with being hungry sometimes. Maybe challenge yourself to be hungry for 30 minutes, or an hour before you allow yourself to eat. Drink water when you're hungry. 500lbs is a lot to keep hydrated and I can't imagine you even stop eating long enough to give yourself the chance to drink as much water as you really need- especially pumping yourself full of sodium and artificial sweeteners.
As for the insomnia? We see it a lot in geriatrics. The elderly don't sleep much because they simply don't exert themselves enough during the day to feel tired at night. This is a big reason why even if you think you don't need a job- you do. It would wear you out a bit and make it easier for you to fall into a deep restful sleep at night. A CPAP machine would probably help, too. In 1999, 27% of obese patients (BMI 30 or higher) had sleep apnea. AL, if you're pushing 500 like it seems, your BMI is 88 and that increases your risks drastically. You say you don't dream AL, this could very well be why.
