What should I do?

Question

So, I have been overweight all my life, I'm 20 now, and my dad always told me I should look weight, and he is super healthy, but been a kid and teen I went rebel. But now I want to start taking care more of my body and weight, because it was one of the problems I had with my period. So, I live with my mom, but she is not that healthy, and she doesn't here me out in varying the food, or making a list of what we need instead of randomly speaking things from the shelves. So, I really don't know how to start this journey.

Answer

Is there any way for u to do ur own grocery shopping? If u can, then definitely do that & make ur own food. If not, would ur mom at least be willing to get specific food items for U if u make her a list of the healthy stuff that u want for yourself? 
I live with my grandmother & she does all the shopping since I don’t drive, she doesn’t eat very healthy either (even though she’s constantly saying she’s going to start), but I’ve been on a weight loss journey for a year & half, and she’s typically very good at getting me whatever healthy stuff I want from the store. She also does the cooking, specifically dinner, and most times I’ll eat what she makes for dinner but just try to eat less of it. Portion control. However, I asked her if she could start incorporating a vegetable with dinner, at least for me, to up my veggie intake, and most times she’s good about doing that. If she forgets the veggie then I’ll either skip it that night or just heat one up on my own. But yea, when u live with people who don’t want to, or aren’t too serious to, jump on the healthy wagon & u are, then u have to do ur best to do it on ur own, so to speak.

Answer

You are 20 now so you dont need your mum to cook for you.
What to do is, do things for yourself. Research on healty lifestyle (not diet)... lifestyle.
Everything is online today, recipe, workout, informations about nutrition, support group, tricks, hack, advice....make use of it.
If you work you have money to do your shopping. If you don't, go food shopping with your mum and as she takes a pack of crisps for your snack, say no and choose an healthy more nutritious option.
It wont cost you huge extra amount of money, it will cost you time.
Because yeah, cooking your own food from scratch is longer than fast food or read meals but at least you know what is inside.
