lacking motivation, please HELP

Hi all..

Interesting thread here about motivation & I think I would like to share my experience too.

I used to be a serious obese weighing 108kgs with almost 40% bodyfat.

Worst, I am not tall at all....so I don't have to explain how (bad) I look right..

At that point of time, I am still studying and do not have much spare cash to buy any weight loss pills nor join any weight loss programs.

I was indeed in a very devastated state to be frank.

Came to think of it now, I think the only factor that can make one break out of that miserable situation is to press on and really "Self-motivate" oneself..

Just believe that as long as you are willing to achieve the "Slim & Trim" physique you always long for...You Would end of the day.

I am not weighing a healthy 68kgs.

With bodyfat of only 15% which is rather impressive considering I was an ex. Obese victim.

I would confidently say that one of the most important factor that contributes to my weight loss success is my "Motivation".

And I urge anyone who's trying to burn off those stubborn fats but somehow feeling very frustrated to keep trying.

Remember....it's all about positive mindset + motivation + eating the right food!

That's it!

Nothing more complicated I think.

I can do it.....so do YOU!.

Hope this confession of mine can help anyone in need.

Cheers to all.

Gd luck to your weight loss goals...:)
 
i am back

phew.. it feels good to be back :D

the last few weeks were weird.. in terms of maintaining a healthy life style it was on and off... on one hand i would have 3-4 days of perfect food and work out.. and then i'd be under pressure, miss the workout and end up eating out and dat wud follow for a 3-4 days before i'm back to the routine again (loop)...

which means although i haven't lost weight in the last few weeks i haven't gained much either.. given how it was the last few weeks of the semester i wud happily tek it.. :D :D

but my holidays have started.. will get around one month break:hurray: :hurray: ..
i started my routine once again from today.. it was a great day.. healthy food,, loadza workout.. u know the usuals :p

but it feels really good to be back here.. frankly, feels like getting back home..
 
Well things like this happen unfortunately. The important thing is to get back on the horse and start losing again. My holiday week was pretty bad too. Didn't gain any which was a suprise, but i didn't lose. Like you said, i'll take it. I've found that i have to treat myself once every couple weeks or so. It's just so hard to eat healthy every day, every meal. It's kinda like a nice little reward. haha. Good luck man!

lol.. i know what u mean man.. cheat meals once every week or two weeks helps keep u on track.. this time around though i'll make sure that its just a meal and not more :D

thanks for the support :)
 
I allow myself to cheat to stay on track. If that makes since? I feel you need to reward yourself once and awhile. Because in the real world we cannot deprive ourselves for very long. When we fall of the wagon so to speak we really fall. lol! I feel that if we allow ourselves to indulge we will not have a problem getting back to it the next day. And you will find yourself thinking ahead and looking forward to that one meal that you will not want to cheat ahead of time. If I do cheat before the cheat day all bets are off. No cheat day for me. Look at it that way it helps me.
Hope you have a wonderful New Year! Tina:grouphug:
 
GOD... it feels like ages... :( :(

i have fallen off the wagon again.. as in, half a week of work out and half a week of just bad food and the cycle continues.. thankfully i got the reason why.. i am struggling to stay focused :(
