Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.

Ditto. I enjoy working out a lot, I hate having to measure every damn thing that goes in my mouth. That has actually been my issue lately. I’m getting a bit older so it’s harder and to have to spend all my time measuring pats of butter and counting almonds is making me hate my life. Meanwhile I love my lunch hour walks and yoga classes, but they don’t really help any more.

I’m someone who has gained and lost weight multiple times. The last time I lost weight — about 40 pounds — it took me over a year and I vowed I would never go through that again. I have managed to keep it off for almost 10 years now. The key for me was to focus on 1 thing at a time — dieting to lose and exercising to maintain (plus you’ve got to watch what you eat as well).

Hello,

From your post above it is obvious that you are a very goal oriented and competitive person. I think you need to find another weight loss challenge group. Either online or in your community. That will keep you motivated.

It is my saving grace. I have maintained my weight loss of 124#’s by walking 3 to 4 miles, 3 or 4 times per week. This is how I can stay motivated.

Meaning, if you exercise, you will begin to start making better choices with food. The reason being that you don’t want to “waste” all that hard work in the gym or wherever. Now, if I could just start walking…..

I couldn’t agree more! I used to detest the gym–now, after FORCING myself to go four times per week, I start to miss it when I’m not there. I leave gym classes feeling strong and accomplished, and as much as I love my couch, it can’t provide me with that feeling!

My team won! I lost 30 pounds! All through diet alone. I gave up sugar if any kind and breads. My diet consisted mostly of meat veggies (the ones I can stand), berries and some nuts along with healthy fats. I am now five days post competition end. I thought I would swing right into this way for the rest of my life. I had a cheat weekend with my family to celebrate and then went back to my diet. Now I am struggling to have the same motivation. To do this for me. It was easy to do this with and for my partner. I felt like I had to or we’d lose and she was depending on me and I didn’t want to be the weak link. Now, when it comes to carrying on for myself all alone, I can’t find the same motivation and excitement to continue. How do I make the mental transition. Yes I have children I could do this for, yes I can do this for me. But up until now, unfortunately, those reasons had never been lasting motivation in the past. Not like winning this comp was. It lasted 3 months. That’s the longest I’ve ever stuck with a diet plan. Now I find myself faltering. Forget about motivation to exercise. I’m as lazy as they come. Or unmotivated, yet again. I know no one can want this for me or do this for me. I just wish I could find the same passion outside of a comp to continue this for life. Or at least till I lose 30-60 more pounds

I also stopped defining exercise as sweaty and heart pumping every single time. I was so obsessed with working to the max each day that it wore me out and I didn’t look forward to it. Now, a walk or long yoga class counts as exercise, and I’m much happier.

I exercice every day, but I’ve long ago stopped equating exercise with weight loss. For me, it’s all about what goes in our stomachs. Exercice will give you a better body composition, a stronger heart, good lungs, strong muscles, a happier and healthier brain, etc, but exercice alone won’t do much for weight loss. That’s why I exercise moderately every day – at a pace and for a duration I see myself being able to sustain for life – and focus my energy solely on food choices to lose weight.
