the beginning, I would feel too awkward to go the gym by myself (now
it’s the complete opposite! I love working out by myself!) and would
always bring a friend along. It was super helpful since it’s a lot more
fun to have someone to talk to and we always ended up staying there
longer and trying new machines.
Take Weekly Pictures
There’s no better feeling than noticing your weight loss progress in pictures. Try to take weekly pictures of yourself (I usually do a mirror pic) and then compare them side by side after a couple of weeks and even the smallest difference will motivate you to keep going.
remember losing motivation whenever I saw that the scale was telling me
that I haven’t lost weight. If you’re doing a lot of weight lifting
(which you should be!) then there’s no point in looking at a scale since
muscle gains more than fat. Instead base your weight loss on how loose
your clothes are getting! Trust me, the scale has no purpose and looking
at it just makes you paranoid and depressed.
of the reasons why people tend to lose motivation quickly is because
they get tired of doing the same old things. That’s why it’s nice to
switch up your workouts so take a walk around your gym and see what
machines you haven’t tried yet and give them a try. If you’re tired of
being in a gym, head to a swimming pool or take cycling or yoga classes!
And yes, yoga can be a workout! There’s tons of ways to get some exercise in and results will come quicker since your body is constantly being challenged.
Change Your Eating Habits Slowly
Changing your diet overnight is difficult and you’re bound to mess up a few weeks (or days!) later. Instead focus on slowly changing your diet by making one new change per week. For example, the first week focus on drinking more water. The next week focus on eating more fruits and vegetables. The third week focus on decreasing the amount of sweets you have. This way your body has time to adjust to the changes and you’re more likely to feel motivated once you accomplish each change.
If
you look forward to going to the gym, then the odds are that you’ll go
more often. Try making some workout playlists which has new music on
there that you haven’t listened to a lot or bring your iPad and choose a
show that you’ll only watch at the gym and no place else. This way,
you’ll trick your mind into believing that the gym is a place to enjoy
rather than just another task to get off your to do list.
