Why can't I keep motivation to eat healthy and exercise?

[Anonymous]

This is lacking from my health, which should be the most important thing...

I barely eat unless I'm starving. I've begun drinking and smoking again.

When I eat, it's usually healthy. I don't eat fast food.

I also can't keep motivation to go to the gym.

What's the deal?

I only live once and I really wish I could be healthier, but I can't seem to keep motivated.

Instead of waking up and going to the gym, I wake up and go to the bar.

Eating healthy doesn't have to be a chore, even meal prepping can help that. As for not eating, I suppose just remind yourself to have something by putting an alarm. The gym, not everyone likes the gym its a fact but the more you go the more it'll be a part of a routine.

Or I could add fitness equipment to my house...

Meal prep takes a very long time... That's what stops that... I usually eat canned food or eat out, which is expensive...

maybe you need someone to have fun, to do it with you? that helps sometimes

[Asker]

Maybe...

But I shouldn't rely on that...

[Priscilla99]

Invite friends they can help you stay in a better perspective and yea I know I don't rely on people all the time to get to where I wanna be or do what I have to do, if they wanna tag along then sure if they don't then that's fine with me...

I have a hard time too but I don't drink or smoke, you need to stop both for one, alcohol is a depressant. I'm just to tired for the gym since I work all day and its physical , you probably need a fitness buddy to go with and motivate you

[Asker]

I don't want to stop drinking...

I go out a lot and I don't want to just drink water...

[Opinion Owner]

Yeah water is boring but what about juice or vitimin water? Anything but alcohol

[Asker]

I would rather drink because it makes you more social...

Plus, everyone else is drinking... It's a bar...

[Opinion Owner]

Well obviously if your in a bar but there goes your motivation once you start that

[Asker]

Yea...

[Priscilla99]

I think that you should focus more on your own health, because doing what others are doing will not benefit you.. I'm sorry I know its probably difficult in your position but you know that you have to do whats right. And if you rreally think about it, wouldn't it be better to have fun and be more social not all hanged up you know, because in reality thats actually sorf of fake enjoyment in my opinion. Alchol may over take your emotions and make you feel more mellow, but will slowly deform you and you won't realize till years later when you finally can see the effects sadly like my uncles and aunts..

[Priscilla99]

My father use to drink a lot but he knows better now and drinks in moderation, my father tried smoking and he didn't like it. But when my father drinks and comes home say after a party he's not the person you wanna be around.

[Priscilla99]

My mother use to smoke a lot as a young adult but until she got a thyroid problem then she quit. she drinks when she goes out but always comes home very wasted and sick. Usually me or my dad would be up really late to make sure she's ok.. I've learned a lot already and Iv'e seen many of my relatives pass away young for these reasons..

@Priscilla99 well I guess you meant this message for the asker since I was also trying to discourage him from alcohol

[Asker]

@Priscilla99 I've had drug problems my whole life...

I spent 2008 - 2013 high on LSD...

This is just the newest thing...

Not a helpful comment

[Priscilla99]

just rude

[takumii]

@Priscilla99 how much money do you need for minding your own goddamn business? :)

[Priscilla99]

I will mind my own business, but if someone is just asking for help/advice and your just bliantly telling them to look forward to dying and just coming back, its not really helpful in fact you sound shallow

[Priscilla99]

i don't need any money coming from a selfish bitch

[takumii]

@Priscilla99
Says " I am minding my own business" then tells you the reason she is not.. Bahahahaha.
Okay too bad you don't take money from selfish bitches but only from pimps.

[Decentguy]
