    What are you eating habits? Workplace? and what are you currently doing for exercise?

    I work 8 hours everyday. My habits are just getting up and wanting something when I'm not really hungry. I don't care for healthy food. And it's like a fast food

    I think you solved your problem right there. Stop eating when you aren't hungry. Watch your calories. If you're going to eat fast food, monitor it. It salads or half portions.
    Start actually making yourself accountable. You might not like healthy things that you have found, but look up yummy recipes online. Try new things. Get outside of the box you have yourself in.

    well, fast food is never the best. Fruits, veg, protien, whole grains are ideal. There are so many fun and delicious recipes if you do the research. I'm just starting off on my journey as well but i've done loads of research on what i should be doing to reach my goal. Check your BMR, there is a calculator for it on here actually, with age weight and height and how active or inactive you are, it weill tell you how many calories your body burns a day by doing absolutely nothing. Whatever that is, is your maintenance number in calories, so to start you need to creat a calorie deficit to that number. When you add in excercise the numbers change on your calorie intake.

    Start gettign to know how exactly everythign works, log everything you eat and do, so you'll eventually have an imprinted idea of what you should and shouldn't be eatign and how much. Get your 8 , 8 ounces of water a day also.

    Is this real life? You could just stick your weights behind the closet to loose them.

    I'm sorry.. but you can't just get on a forum with vague posts like that and expect somebody to give you a magic solution. Use the app, be consistent.. it's pretty simple.

    Is English your first language? I am not trying to be rude, just trying to understand.
