Why am I struggling to lose weight ?

[Anonymous]

I want to loose about 17 kgs .

I am at a really bad time in my life right now , I am overly stressed , working every day and have no real time to myself . I have been wanting to loose weight but it seems that each time I want to start , I find a stupid excuse . I really do want to be skinnier . but I am wondering if my struggle with weight loss is because I have a lot of rubbish in my life that I need to sort out ? Is that possible ? And what can I do to change it ? My life is a huge mess right now .

motivation can be tough when you want to lose weight, results don't seem to come quickly and the amount of effort it takes to see small results seems so immense. this is not unusual, it happens to the best of us. I have done lots of research regarding health and dieting (literally hundreds of hours, as insane as that sounds) but no matter how much I read I will never learn as much as I do from experience and what I find is the main issue with motivation is I'm doing things that strain areas of my body I have difficulty with (my back isn't aligned properly and my choice of workouts seem to put a lot of strain on it) so stay away from things like that because there are alternative solutions. also if you do something you find fun then that is much more helpful and motivational. if knowing others could be watching puts fire under your butt and gets you moving, buy a gym membership. if you find rock climbing fun, try and find a rock climbing wall near to you and go as often as possible (they may have memberships for those too). or going to an indoor public pool, taking a dance class, running on the treadmill, skipping, hula hooping, etc. also I find watching weight loss shows motivates me to get healthy. shows like x-weighted and the biggest loser. I hope this helped, even in the slightest.

You know people with anorexia are people that usually can't control something in their lifes and so they do it with food, is a control think...

Are you fat? Because 17 kg is a lot of weight to loose it won't be easy, I need to loose 7 kg I lost 3 already just eating healthier food in every 3 hours ...

I am considering doing that gym Personal Fitness it seems that works it might be expensive and hard but that's what works...

Try to fix all the messes in your life too ok
