Best way to lose weight, tone up and stay motivated?

[gemmaleex]

Hi guys!

They say summer bodies are born in winter so I want to use the next few months to really lose some weight and tone up so I can be beach body ready and feel confident.

I have really good intentions and eat healthyish and exercise for a few days and then I just give in to temptation and have some cake or chocolate or crisps or miss one day that turns into two and three etc..

If people can tell me ANY useful tips, ways or things that helped you really stick it out then please comment. Also feel free to post any exercises that are good and the best way to exercise to lose weight and tone up etc.. just anything to help! or any good websites etc!!

Thanks all!

I've lost weight & I'm still on my journey.. It's honestly trial and error, like what works for me might not work for you. But some things I follow is make sure you eat lean proteins, your veggies, fruits (try to eat your carbs and fruits before noon) and space your meals out especially your proteins, also don't eat a late dinner try to eat early. Drink a lot of water and also limit salt intake!! I find that with me personally if I eat a lot of salt I retain water and it stalls my loss.

In terms of motivation.. I usually buy something cute in a smaller size so I have something to work for.. And ofc read up on tumblr, look at cool quotes & stuff on instagram.. Etc.

Throw out any junk food you have in the house, don't bring money when you go out and don't bring more money than just enough for exactly what's on you grocery list when you go shopping. You can't eat what you don't have and you can't buy what you don't have money for.

take a read here

there's some good info

it's okay to cheat, you shouldn't be dieting and exercising 24/7. your body needs a break every now and then. but eating cake 3 days straight isn't a break. there is a strategy for fat loss and toning up. your body responds to what you do and how you do it, so try and do it right.

your head is already in the right place so you know you can do this. all you need is knowledge.

My tip would be to make exercise part of your routine. Find a gym or classes close to your workplace and go before or after work several times a week. If you can learn to enjoy it you'll just go automatically without having to force yourself each time. Good luck.
