Tips on losing weight, I lose motivation after a few weeks?

[Axel101]

So here is my story, I'm a pretty good looking guy and the only thing that I'm insecure about is my weight, I'm not fat or obese, but I could lose a few pounds.. Let's just say that I don't really feel comfortable with how I am at this moment.

I want to lose weight and some things I already do is: Drink water or coffee all day (no calories). Started playing soccer again, twice a week. I have to admit that during the weekends when I'm with friends I do like to have myself a few beers, I know they aren't good for you, but I don't want to change my ways drastically you know.

I can do fine without fat food for a week or 2/3 but then after a while I start eating a little bit more and more untill eventually I'm back to my old habits.

Anyone else had the same problem or have any tips for me? I do really want to lose some pounds.

this isn't uncommon, most people feel really pumped to lose weight and be healthy but slowly lose motivation
here are my suggestions
1.) get the PumpedUp App on your phone, keep track of your exercises, calories etc. its a app with loads od people doing the same thing. post pictures etc and people help support you and motivate you ! it helped me a lot to stay focused :D
2.) find a picture of body inspiration that you want to reach ps don't pick a super model you have to be realistic with yourself.
3.) doing these activities with friends make it more fun. I love gyming with my man or my friends, we motivate each other and it makes it way more fun
4.) instead of drinking beer on weekends why not drink red wine? its healthier than beer
5.) fast foods are the devil when it comes to losing weight try substitute it with yummy healthy take outs
6.) keep drinking that water!

best of luck!

ps take before shots of your body and then take another after a few weeks. seeing the change for yourself will motivate you to keep going

I promise you these all work :)

Haha let's hope so :) My goal is to have a flat belly at the start of the summer

[pretty_panda]

flat belly's are made in the kitchen.. so definitely loads of water, LOTS of cardio, stay away from alcohol and do some core exercises :)

[Axel101]

True that! I'm wondering if my football practise and one competition game would do the trick for the cardio part. Since I'm a fulltime intern at this moment and I don't really have the time.

Take Volt Pre workout you can buy it on amazon. The best pre workout I've tried. It will make you workout longer and harder and you'll burn more calories + lose weight.

just try to eat less and be more active. it's very simple

[Axel101]

True it is very simple, but to keep yourself motivated is the hard part
