Create A Motivation List To Help You To Lose Weight

I have had many issues with my own weight and have tried many different weight loss programs and diets.

A few years ago, I decided to try to reduce the amount I weighed yet again, but was determined that this time the fat would stay off.

I wrote down all of the reasons I was trying to lose the excess fat. One of the items that I included on the list was about my desire to become a lot stockier with muscles and possibly even a six pack. This I believed would help my self-confidence and self-esteem which were always fairly low which may have been one of the reasons why I had a stuttering problem. I had had enough of feeling ashamed of my weight and fat belly. I wanted to walk down the street feeling proud and assured plus I also wanted to stop stuttering of course.

I used to also eat when I was stressed and I sure had a lot of worry via work which was in the fostering services UK and DVD duplication industries.

I wanted to lose weight to avoid all the health problems that being obese can cause, as people become older. I am not sure about you but I rarely see a fat person who is in their seventies or eighties. I am hoping to live until a ripe old age and enjoy my retirement.

Next on my list was about the clothes I wear. Basically I am not able to buy the clothes I really want to as they do not really suit a person of my build. There are times when I notice a person walking down the road and I think that they look impressive and that their clothes are nice; I then however realise that they are a lot thinner than me. The clothes may look impressive on them but would not look the same if I wore them.

I also wanted to lose weight in order for me to look more attractive to members of the opposite sex.

The last reason on my list was about my general level of fitness. I have always really enjoyed played footie or what the Americans call “soccer” and as a kid played in many teams including the one at school.I so wanted to start playing this again as well as other sports but knew that I would have to become a lot fitter to do so.

This list was something that I would carry on my person throughout the day as it would act as a reminder of why I was trying to lose my excess weight – a form of motivation one might say. I am not saying it was an easy road, however I eventually managed to obtain a weight that I was happy with. I now have a lot more confidence in many areas of my life including work where I now offer Voucher Codes.

I hope this article proves to be an inspiration to many people; young and old.
