I need to change now, can you help?

[Anonymous]

I love myself, my body that's why i realize i need to change my habits, i eat too bad and you can see that in my extra weight, but somehow i end up by giving up. sometimes i feel no motivation to eat healthy and exercise but i understand seing the results really worth it. But now my life is so down, i didn't go to college cause i have no money, i'm unemployed for 6months, my parents don't give me attention, i feel so down i confort myself with food. Help me to change i need it!

Download some job apps, you can apply for a lot more jobs in less time that way. In the mean time you could always do some charity work to gain experience if you don't have that much that is. What did you want to study? Maybe you could do some of your own studying at home to better yourself in the subject until you get the money together. Maybe do a goal broad? But pictures of the body you want, dream job, house and so on, put it on your wall or somewhere you can see it everyday. Do yourself diy homemade spa treatments to make yourself feel better. As for eating and exercise, just make one or two small changes to your diet everyday. Like trade in tea/coffee for green tea, pop/soda for water, chocolate bar for special k bar or something like that. Start slow with exercise too just a little each time until you get in the swing of things.

Start eating better.

I am on a similar journey.

Go to the doctor/dentist for a check up.
Then start working on your health.

Research on habits/healthy habits, so you can get a kickstart.

I am trying to meditate regularly but it is quiet hard. So, I decided to sit and meditate for 30secs-1min a day.

And then slowly build up

Do the same with exercise.

Do a cardio workout for 7 mins a day. There a lot of full body workouts on youtube.
You can start out with low impact.

Give yourself 7-8 months to see results.

You have no money you say? And you're losing hope?

Then hit the stock market baby! Become a day trader and take the world by storm! It's easier than it looks. Start with 500 dollars and make them grow by jumping between penny stocks. Watch youtube for advice. I started one year ago as a poor student and I'm currently quite wealthy =) You can exercise while watching the monitor.

Get a friend or two to do it with you, especially if you know someone who is wanting to do the same thing. When it comes to your emotional needs, talk to your friends as openly about it as you can and try to spend as much time as you can with other people.

Another problem: i closed with my own problems that i almost never hang out with my friends. i concentrated too much about me that i left them out

Then textra them again asking to go out and do something, whatever that is. Especially your close friends texting something like "Hey I'm sorry we haven't talked in a while, I've been going through a rough patch.. Want to see if we can get together some time this week?" Or if you're not comfortable saying that to them a simple "Hey! Hope you've been doing great! :) I was wondering what your schedule looked like this week to see if we could find a time to meet up?" Or even just texting and talking to people will help you feel better

I'll do that. Thanks a lot, that's what i really need

I didn't get any money for college either. So I joined the military.
You're missing purpose and no amount of weight loss ior healthy eating s going to give you that. Find out what you want and do what you need to do to get it...

[Asker]

I understand that but the motivation is gone...

[ClassicRocker]

18-24 and the motivation is gone... There are still literally millions of different paths your life could take if you just got up out of the house... Every single day of your life is like the butterfly effect for every day after that. How can you not be excited for at least one of those possibilities?

[Asker]

That's deep. You inspired me. You really made my day, thanks a lot.

It's just the truth...
