Motivation
 

Hi everyone. The best motivation thing for me it is a display of myself in a mirror. When I see some progress not on the scales but in a mirror it usually motivates me to keep going for the better result :)

the results - they motivate the mosts.

feeling good mentally and physically, and draining my energy so i can fall asleep at night

I think I gained weight over the years because it became a way to deal with emotions. I am eating against stress, anger, frustration, tiredness. I has become a habit and I would like to stop it. My first goal here is to do some self-observation, measure how much I eat and how I feel about it. Pay more attention. I also set a goal of losing about 2 kg a month, with seems reachable. I dislike the way i look, and moreover, all the biased ideas that some people have about me just by looking at me (like supposing I lack self-discipline). It's my first day here, so far I find the site very well thought. I hope I'll stick around and that it will help me to be more in control of my emotions, and of how they are related to food.

For me, it's really for health reasons. By eating healthy and exercising, there's less risk for some diseases, I feel good and confident. It'll be easier for me to move around, work, and accomplish my goals. I'm sure it's not only me who found it difficult at first. I think having a good support system is really important. For me, I have my partner and friends to cheer me on and even join me.

It motivates me to think that I will become better in the future if I work on myself.

I'd like to think health reasons, but it's probably more on improved perception of self. Being active and eating healthy makes me feel good though, so it's a win for me all over, keeps me going.

My reflection in the mirror motivates me.
