I seriously need to loose weight but need motivation! HELP

[EllaMidlands]

Why do you want to lose weight? Use it as your motivation for doing it!

[Heidi1966 in reply to EllaMidlands]

I feel fat and frumpy

[EllaMidlands in reply to Heidi1966]

There's your motivation, that's why you want it. Now what you need is determination from within, you've got your motivation. 🤞

You can do it!! Just try seven lbs at a time. Give it your best. You'll feel so much better.

Eating healthy, exercise and most important have fun! Otherwise the healthy eating will be short-lived. Experiment with healthy food and I have found that I have discovered new meals that you enjoy.

Diet should be 75% and 25% should be exercise. Use negative thoughts about your body weight as motivation and think about what you will look like when you have lost 7lbs, 1 stone or more. What clothes will you wear and how will you feel? Focus on small goals at a time. Hope this helps

Close your eyes and picture yourself as a healthier skinnier self. You feel great, you have more energy. It can be within reach. Make small changes, make some food swops. I've quickly learnt a lot from this group and being active on here really does help. Make a plan for tomorrow. Xxx
