How do I get enough motivation to lose weight?

Keep your mind focused on the overall goal. When you're about to give in to eating something unhealthy, realize that what you want right at the moment is not comparable to what you want the most for yourself. Also, just as a side note, make sure to keep eating healthy, meaning don't ever stop eating. I know sometimes people will say that if you fast, you'll lose weight quicker, but it's actually the opposite. Good luck! :)

Motivation is a tricky thing but ultimately starts with you. The saying when you get sick and tired of being sick and tired you start the process for change. There is usually a thought begins in your mind that makes you start thinking about wanting to change ie. to be healthier, live longer for someone you love, fit into a cute outfit, you don't like the you you see in the mirror etc. Once that thought begins you either discount it by saying all the reasons you can't do it or begin to encourage yourself and say you could do it. either way change starts with taking one small step. Decide to walk further, drink less pop, drink more water etc. Start with small changes you can master fairly easily and then you will become motivated because you will have more confidence in making bigger changes. Losing weight is an emotional journey that starts in the mind and then transfers to your emotions, actions, attitudes. It's more than just eating so don't be hard on yourself. I encourage you to take your first step and keep moving forward. There is nothing you can't do.

Something I have personally found helpful is to go ahead and write down positive self-affirmations every day. Increasing my self-esteem and affirming myself makes me feel more excited to go workout because it makes me feel powerful. It also makes working out and eating healthy feel like I'm treating myself well rather than depriving/punishing myself.

Just imagine how fabulous you would look after loosing the weight! Just imagine ur walking and all eyes are on you! Think about the benefits that your gona get once you loose weight! You don't need to look for your size in special stores! You can wear trendy clothes which are usually made for girls with zero figure! You need to set up a goal for a day and follow it! It's really easy to gain weight but even more tough to loose it! Once u loose a little weight talk to your friends about it! Tell them what you have done! Choose your own role model! Whom you want to look like! Buy a dress which doesn't fit you! And keep trying that every week after workout! Make sure how much weight u need to loose in how much time! Eat healthy food! Don't stop eating! Drink water before you eat food so that your stomach remains full! All the best! Hope that helps! :)

This is not an easy question! It is so much easier to ignore your weight gain or habits than it is to be aware and want to lose the weight. The first important thing is to be aware of your weight and how it makes you feel. Are you unhappy with it? Is it a healthy weight for your gender/age? A good way to get a kick start is to see a dietician or nutritionist to talk about your diet. Changing diet can have just as much of an effect as adding exercise can!

Keeping a log of what you eat has been shown to help people eat less, even when they aren't trying to restrict their diet. Maybe that could be a good place to start.

You mentioned the words 'enough motivation' That's quite subjective to be honest. I think it would help if you recall the reason as to why did you feel the need to lose weight in the first place (look fitter, to reduce stress etc.) and then realize the importance of having a set exercise routine. Also it helps to remember that exercise has long term mental benefits whilst short term gains that you see help in raising your sense of self esteem as well. If that's good enough for you to get started then so be it, just remember in the future whenever you lose motivation your 'why' is going to lift you out of it no matter what field you are in.

Routine, start slow and build your way up. How can you become motivated enough or have the self-discipline to exercise if other parts of your life are chaotic. Create a diet plan that is both healthy and suits you, use healthy snacks to fill the void. After you've got that in order, start with a simple walk.
