How to kick start weight loss after demotivation

Demotivation happens to everyone, I know I gained about 10 pounds due to this. Only you know what will work best for your routine. Someone else could suggest working out 2 hours a day, but most people simply just don't have the time for this. Right now it seems like the best thing to do is to try and figure out the source of your demotivation.

Personally, ingesting that many calories sounds like more of a problem than simply lacking motivation. It sounds like perhaps you are fighting depression, or that your body is lacking some nutrients and therefore you are craving everything in sight. It could be that you have some deeper issue, and there is not much chance of successfully losing weight until you figure out what that problem is.

I have found that if I simply avoid situations that allow me to overeat, the problem mostly solves itself. Sometimes a little white lie is even neccessary. This holiday season, in order to prevent myself from overeating on the goodies at work I told everyone that I have a gluten allergy. It isn't true, but just about every baked good has gluten in it, so telling people this meant that I couldn't touch those things.
