It’s Difficult To Stay Focused On Losing Weight

But I eventually found a way

For years, I struggled to lose weight, but every attempt was doomed to fail.

My mental and physical health deteriorated during the lockdown, making things worse. When the lockdown ended, I told myself that I needed to make some changes in my life.

I started seeing a therapist to figure out what was wrong with me. When it came to losing weight, however, I had to work harder to stay motivated. Later, I developed a few habits that helped me focus:

1. I used a photo of the goal I wanted to achieve as my phone background.

2. I stopped weighing myself every day.

3. I stopped buying a lot of sweets.

4. I stopped eating less than 1200 calories per day.

5. I exercised daily and I drank a lot of water.

6. I planned my meals at least one day in advance.
