Problem With Motivation To Lose Weight

By violetajade1 October 21, 2020 18 answers Last updated October 21, 2020

Hello! I have a serious problem. At the age of 21 he weighs over 200 kg. and does not grow in height. My family, my friends and everyone around me keep telling me that I need to lose weight, build myself up and eat less, move more. And here comes my problem. I want to loose weight. I really want to lose weight and I often manage to get so motivated to try diet and exercise, but did I start ... on the second, first day or even an hour or two after trying to do exercises (and I do them) - I have tried different movements from different sports, classical exercises, dances) just the motivation evaporates. I can't control my diet either. I admit that I'm afraid of becoming a preoccupied young lady, constantly counting calories, so I don't look and I'm not interested in the composition of the things I eat. For me, food is first and foremost a taste. If I want a certain taste, I go and get what that taste has, whatever it is. I don't like a lot of sweet things, but there are - and there are almost always, because my mother has low blood pressure and she needs sweets in the morning - I eat sweets too. In short - I MUST lose weight, but when I motivate myself I can't keep that motivation long enough. My mother demotivates me every time she tells me that I need to lose weight, it demotivates me the monotony that it turns out I have to impose. And it demotivates me that I have to act alone, because my friends are full-time students and not in town, and my mother is busy, and we don't have money for fitness. What can I do to maintain this motivation and START losing weight I don't like a lot of sweet things, but there are - and there are almost always, because my mother has low blood pressure and she needs sweets in the morning - I eat sweets too. In short - I MUST lose weight, but when I motivate myself I can't keep that motivation long enough.

   Amy, you had to lose weight. It is not pleasant, but it requires a strong will. For example, once I gained 10 kg for a few months due to stress, but then every day running in the park - and so I did not have the financial means for fitness, I live in a small town now and there are not many sports options, so this was the best solution . Nobody really likes sports - at least it's not like I'm not bored, but I just force it on myself. And start looking at the calories in food. It is not said not to eat anything, but for example you can see how to compensate. For example, today you ate something unhealthy and caloric, tomorrow if you feel like eating you do not repeat. Just to be weak you need a little restrictions :) and will. And what stronger motivation to have, apart from the fact that you will be liked more, and you will like yourself more. This will definitely boost your self-esteem. In my opinion, you are demotivated because you think that even if you exercise and do not eat, there is not much to change your current situation, but this is not true. If you don't eat as much and exercise, it will definitely have an effect. However, do some hormonal tests or metabolic tests. Success Ana

   Anna, your recipe is good for people who are obese, slightly overweight - the author is overweight! She can hardly with her 200 kg. to run in the park. Author, you are not alone. I was in the United States recently, and people like you are normal there. They do not move on foot, but with special electric wheelchairs. They do not impress anyone, which is very unfortunate. These people do not live long. Anyway - you can hardly do it alone anymore. I recommend that you undergo surgery - a bypass of the stomach or at least a balloon. It is no longer a matter of will, but of life or death. You are a sick person. I don't know how you can have the following concern: "I admit that I'm afraid of becoming a preoccupied young lady, constantly counting calories, so I don't look and I'm not interested in the composition of the things I eat. "- you have diabetes, breathing and heart problems are a matter of time. And they will certainly appear before you turn 25. I don't want to scare you, but if you don't do something, you will continue to gain weight and you will hardly become older than 40, you will ever have a family and a normal life. What will you do, for example? Think about it and seek help - medical and surgical help. I wish you a lot of motivation, because you are talking about a disease state, life or slow death.

   Number 1, did you even read what it was about or do you shout like that, let me tell you my troubles here ... What running, what motivations, diets - are you in class? The girl is serious about a doctor and not one. In general, how could you get to this situation? What are these relatives and friends? How can you not be motivated at 200 kilograms? Do you know how this weight affects your heart in general? Isn't this a fucking topic? She was worried about becoming a pinched young lady who was counting calories ... Aren't you worried if you decide to give birth, what problems can you bring to your child? She had no money for fitness. Didn't I embarrass you by writing this? Bass ridiculous excuse .. Motivation and talk to me for 1.2 days. Do you know what motivation is at all? And what does it mean to keep her? Running 20 kilometers a day, to get up at 2 o'clock before work to run and train, not to eat cake even on your birthday. What dances, what exercises. You have to get 2 people off you. You are a barrel for diseases, if your own life and health are not enough to motivate yourself, then keep pushing more. Bad

   Male, when I look at your vicious comments, you answer me .. Especially: "You have to get 2 people off you .. You are a barrel for diseases, if your own life and health are not enough to motivate yourself, then keep pushing more . "- WHAT A RUDE ATTITUDE? Girl, now advice from me. I am almost your age and I am about 98 kg. 2 years ago I was about 65 after following a diet for many months. The will must come from yourself, from there will come the motivation after losing 2-3 pounds. I was like that, but just after my strict diet and I started to feel not very well, I just got tired and stopped it. And as you can see - 2 years later, rather 3 years, from my record then 85 kg I am now almost 100 ... Shameful, but true .. And I keep saying "From tomorrow", but in addition to work and everyday life, I always eat a sandwich in a hurry, then another and ... it's a bad job to be different, and it's a pity that the MAJORITY and as I look at the vicious attacks of the commenters above - no one understands us. It's a kind of addiction. When I'm sad and lonely - I eat, when I'm sorry - I eat. When I'm busy, though, I rarely eat. You have to commit to something and that's it. Food is the problem, it's the gene to some extent. Come on success! A girl like you

   Number 7 does not speak unprepared. Don't shake your head about who's mean and who's not, but sit down and fix your spelling. And I don't say it with malice, I say it for her good. Because it is from such comments as yours that this situation is reached. She doesn't need someone to tell her how good she is, she doesn't need to be reassured that kg doesn't matter or that there are others. This is not about aesthetics, it's about health. If she hasn't been startled or drunk until she's 21, someone has to tell her that. Her motivation would not come from such support, she told herself. I have spent my life among such people, at the age of 7 I went to fattening shops, don't tell me who I understand and who I don't. Moreover, in the family I have a person with a bunch of health problems due to weight. But let someone not touch your ego. How much easier it is to justify ourselves with everyday life and to deceive ourselves instead of facing the problem. Very good health Bad

   I don't believe that you weigh 200 kilos, and I shouted like that looking in the mirror and I was disgusted by the view, but anyway. I was fat last winter, I was about 70-80 kg, now I'm 58-60 kg and I don't know and how I lost weight my regime was as usual-eating once a day after work. Maybe because of walking I lowered so much - my way from the apartment to work is 45 minutes walking and then 45 minutes back and I walk it in winter and summer. For this 1 year, because of walking, my metabolism has increased, my blood circulation too, I do not suffocate, and the strange thing is that my appetite has decreased. Try to walk long distances, you will go out earlier so as not to be late for lectures or work. I don't think genes play that role, and I've calmed down before because my mother is fat, my father is fat, I was fat too, and my sister was thin.

   Still thanks for all the comments. In my opinion, there is a problem to some extent that I am not a sociable person. I don't like meeting new people. And I have suffered insults and attacks - they do not interest me or insult me ​​in any way. For Number 1, let me say that I did hormonal tests in which they "allegedly" found something in my pituitary gland and made me take some pills, the only effect of which was the appearance of serious hair and more weight. And yes, I agree that I am a barrel of disease, that my condition is terrible. I have probably spent 10 of all my years in hospitals due to a congenital (small) heart defect and I have been told that I have nothing physically, I don't even have high blood pressure, and the danger of diabetes has never been mentioned. I admit (with a little shame) that the biggest part of my problem is the incredible laziness. But I'm just not a person who likes to go out and just walk because of walking. I don't like to have no purpose when I go out. And from everything I've read on the subject it turns out that it's great to walk I don't know how many kilometers a day every day. The things I do require a sitting position. I don't even think about food 90% of the day! I'm just used to insults, to constant repetition, and they don't affect me.

   Girl, your problem is not in motivation but in the wrong approach. Try different ways to find your own. Example: every morning write on a piece of paper / notebook today's ration according to what you want to eat but in the portion size of 50 kg lady. And follow your recipe strictly after each meal, mark on the sheet / notebook. Breakfast: Slice with 6g butter and 30g cheese + a glass of 200 ml juice Lunch: anything but no more than 180-200 g, even if only bread is Breakfast in the afternoon at four o'clock: 2 biscuits if you want and chocolate is not a problem, the important thing is the amount with you. Dinner: 150 g cooked dish 1 slice of bread If you are still hungry, which will be a fact, eat only fresh cabbage or cucumber on the stomach. Take at least 3 liters of water a day, although for your kg it is normal to take 7l-8l if you can and drink as much It is important to walk initially 2 km per day increase the distance every seven days by half a kilometer until you reach 9 km per day. You say that you are a student, a lecture recorded on an MP3 lecture is useful and a great friend when walking. Walking should be energetic, not just a walk, but as if you are in a hurry somewhere. If necessary, cover the distance in time, go for the first day, check your time and the next day you have to cover the same distance in 10 minutes in a short time. Believe in yourself you can I believe in your strength. Walking should be energetic, not just a walk, but as if you are in a hurry somewhere.

   I do not see anything offensive in people's words. Author, I hope you have discovered the stomach balloon or bypass for yourself. The first is not even an expensive intervention. We can't give you advice, because hardly any of us weighs half as much as you, and we hardly know a person like you. I don't think at all that some want to make fun of you here, we're just trying to scare you. And rightly so. Your diabetes is safe, read on. And if you have a congenital heart problem ... I know why you don't go out - so that people don't look at you, so that your children don't make fun of you, but this is a closed circle. If you don't go out, you will get fatter and one day you will not be able to move at all. Take at least some path that you can WALK, watching TV, so to speak. You haven't been able to run for a long time. It's all your parents' fault, but from now on you're on the move!

   "Bad" - "She was not startled and did not drink anything, someone has to tell her that way." - How will I be startled after they started insulting me when I was 7 years old and I suffered? Honestly, I'm a little annoyed by your comments, but because they are true, I try to understand them. But I think I understand what you all mean, so you can stop commenting, thank you :)

   If you manage to achieve a result, it is good to share it, because there are many young girls with your problem !! I am 41 years old, I changed my diet, I walk 5-6 km. per day on foot to go to work not out of economy just for have got movement and managed to lose 14 kg. There are no impossible things, to look good you have to make an effort. There are few people about whom we say that this is a gene, ie it eats a lot and does not gain weight, unfortunately we are not one of them. There is no way to leave yourself at 21 just think you need movement energy expenditure and change your diet. You can find many friends and people with your problem, you will discuss the difficulties, exchange ideas, etc. I wish you success with all my heart !!! And again please write about the results !!! DO NOT GIVE UP

   Hi, I read what you are worried about and I see that you wrote this a year and 7 months ago somewhere but you definitely should not worry about being over 200kg. and fitness does not help to lose weight and other things are needed for which you will not need even money - things cost a few levs - if you receive an email that I wrote to you here then please write to my email ... ina on my skype where my nickname is: .... if you contact me I think we can see each other for coffee or elsewhere and give you advice about your problem and you really lose weight, although personally I like a lot of fat women and for me they are much more charming from weak women, but I would help you with tips for losing weight and you will definitely lose weight from them. I will expect you to write to me or on Skype darling. See you soon

   In my opinion, everything rests on the will. Yes, you probably don't go out because you're ashamed of people, but I think the main reason for your demotivation is the fact that every time you try to start exercising and eating healthy, you start thinking about how long it has to pass, how much you have to train, how much you will starve ... I know this from personal experience. In principle, everyone in my family is weak, I just have no one to be fat, but in the summer of 2013 I broke my arm. I forgot to say that I am addicted to sports. I'm constantly running, swimming, tennis, etc. Anyway. After I broke it, I despaired terribly. It was summer and there was nothing I could do. Then, out of self-pity, I dropped everything and started eating. So without realizing it I gained 65 kg. I know they don't sound like much, but I'm just sharing ... It wasn't me, I didn't feel good in my skin, even my stomach relaxed, so one day I just said END and changed my diet completely. I lose weight very quickly, maybe that was the reason why in 3-4 weeks I gained 51-53 kg, I am 170. I will lie if I say that now I do not eat harmful food, but I want you to know that you are motivated , you stop finding excuses and just act. I am 16 years old, I often stayed at school until 3.30 pm, then I took an English course, I came home at 7.30 pm, but I trained again. I trained on the Insanity program. This workout is too intense, especially if you have a heart problem, don't even start it. But after proper nutrition, training and a lot of effort and will I managed to achieve my goal. I even have tiles now. If there's a will, there's a way. Just find yours. so one day I just said END and changed my diet completely.
