Try not to blame your family, that means your not blaming yourself when you eat those cookies… if you did blame yourself, the impending guilt might make you reconsider.

i find i’m able to get fit in about 3-4 weeks when i need to…..

-drink lots of water.
a lot of people mistake thirst for hunger, so keep your self well watered. plus it’s great for the skin. Just aim to keep a cool bottle of water with you 24-7, not in your bag, in your hand. that way you’ll drink it just because it’s there….. trust me, it won’t seem like such a pain after a week or so.

- Don’t eat out of boredom.
this is the kicker for many people who are only slightly overweight…. Instead of eating when you are bored, replace it with something else. Personally i drink tea, or juice. Tea, i find, is a great way to fill your stomach for a little while so you don’t have to snack between meals….
Also, it’ll be something to do when you go into the kitchen. I find if i eat a packet of crisps, which you can still do from time to time( i’m no diet nazi ) i will always want another, just because they taste nice…. tea cleanses your pallet, and eliminated those cravings.

-exercise at the same time each day.
Self-motivation is an issue for some people. I struggle to motivate myself. It’s easy to go through a day and say ‘oh, i didn’t have any free time’ and you won’t feel at all guilty for not exercising. If you set a time, Eg first thing when you get home from work/school. That time will come around, and you will know you’re supposed to be exercising, and you will feel a little guilty if you don’t. that guilty feeling will help motivate you.

-Exercise is supposed to be tiring.
Try to put a lot of effort into exercising. It’s easy to fall into the habbit of just going through the motions of exercise, especially in a big gym. Anything with reps can be deceiving. You get to your 30 reps and think… ”right, i’ve toned my whatever… on to the next one” but are you really tired? do you feel a ‘burn’ in the area you’ve targeted… if it’s cardio, did you break a sweat? If not, keep doing it until you do.

Really weight loss is all about self discipline. If you get your priorities right, and are willing to work, you’ll see results. But more importantly, even before you feel results, if you’ve worked really hard you’ll know yourself, and feel good about it.

Good luck =]

If you seem to find that nothing is working, find a doctor that will prescribe you phentermine, or something of that sort..

I hope this helps.

Start a weight program I suggest jenni craig if you can find one anywhere in your area. You can’t go back to eating what you what all the time and I understand that’s hard. Only buy jeni craig food and try not to get any snacks.

Try and work out an exerisize plan too. Visit a local gym if you can.

Also, try and stay outside for as long as you can and when you get a craving for something, drink lots of water.
