During weight loss journeys, most people have the most ambition and fire in the beginning. They know that they want to lose weight and will do so by any means necessary. It seems so easy to start, and if you were anything like me, you watched a ton of Youtube videos of other peoples body transformation and used this as a way to motivate you. Everyone in those videos never usually talks about how hard it is to start losing weight again after you quit for a day, a week, a couple of weeks etcetera because those days will come eventually.
The easiest thing to do is quit on yourself. Staying consistent throughout this transformation will probably be the most challenging thing you have to do. It's not the exercising, the foods you have to eat, it will be trying to keep your head in the game. If you are someone looking for an easy way out to lose weight, which includes fad diets, quick and easy fat loss I'm here to tell you that they don't work. Even if it was to work it may not be long-lasting. I know this may seem harsh, but it was the same wake-up call for me. Since I've lost a significant amount of weight, I have realized that the only way to lose weight is in a healthy, controlled and slow way. Although progression may be slow, I know for a fact that the weight won't come back as quickly.
To whoever may be reading, It is entirely okay to have moments where you quit. What matters most is that you decide to keep going. Don't let a break in your journey stop you from continuing at all. If you do all you will say is " If I kept going I would be at my goal" or something along those lines. You have to remind yourself what the whole purpose of losing weight. Whether Whatever your reasons may be, never lose sight of that as you want to give up. It is possible, and you will reach your goal. That's all I will be telling myself.
