I Always Thought I Can’t Lose Weight - Not Any More
In my eyes my adult life is in two parts. Not the before and after drastic weight loss. Yes, weight loss is involved but not how you would think.
My before part is before I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. My after part is what happens after, dealing with the aftermath.
I didn’t think I was too overweight for someone in my mid twenties. I regularly carried about fifteen pounds extra.
I had tried to lose weight many times in the past but motivation was the key for me. Actually lack of motivation was the key for me. I just assumed I can’t lose weight.
When I was motivated it seemed to take ages to lose a few pounds. When I wasn’t motivated it seemed to take about a day to pile it back on.
Then disaster, or what seemed like disaster for me. Struck with diabetes, and all the possible complications that come with it.
I was told in no uncertain terms to drop the weight, or suffer. I had to stop thinking I can’t lose weight and start thinking I can lose weight.
Just what was I gonna do? Up until now I believed I can’t lose weight. Now I’m faced with finding a system that works for me.
What I thought I needed was something that I could follow step by step every day. Along the way ticking off the boxes when I’d finished a step.
If the steps were planned meals or exercise routines then I’d need to tick off that it was complete. This way I know I’m sticking to the game plan.
I found and tried all sorts of diets and contraptions. I read a lot of Ebooks and paper books but I didn’t feel fully comfortable with any of them.
I actually discovered a neat system that has a computer generated diet planner. Better still it doesn’t restrict my meal sizes! It takes all the stress out of planning the correct meals and diet.
I mentioned earlier that I like to tick the boxes off when I’m doing something, well this system ticks all the boxes for me. Forgive the little joke there!
I can tell you from my own experiences that you are most likely wrong if you are assuming you can’t lose weight. If you are yet to find a system that works for you then maybe that system is the one I’m using?
Read a review on my site of some of the stuff I’ve tried. Clearly my current and fav system is going to be ranked number 1. What have you got to lose? Hopefully a bit of weight!
