in Fitness and Exercise
hey everyone :)
so ive had this problem recently, about this time last year i was about 2 kilos from my goal weight - but then i went over seas and came back and just completely lost all motivation and since then have gained back 10 of the 15 kilos i had lost, it makes me feel so bad to think i just threw everything away for what, a meal at maccas? i was overweight my whole life so when i first started i was really motivated went to the gym everyday and refused to have any soft drink or bad food - and being a teenager thats hard when your the only one ordering salad when you eat out with your mates !! i still drank but the weight seemed to drop off. i remember the feeling every week when the scales went lower i was so happy i think thats what kept me motivated :) but i just never got to loose that last 2 kilos, so i think that is was stuck in my mind the fact that i continued to work harder then i ever had and still couldn't lose that last two kilos. anyways, im looking for advice on how i could overcome those last two kilos in terms of an exercise plan if anyone could help? im starting up at the gym next week so also any good routine for starting out? i know most guys worry about bulking but honestly i just want to reach my goal weight and start from there so any workouts to provide maximum calorie burning :)
I am:
Male
18
Height: just above 6ft
weight: 97kg
goal: was 80 but right now ill go for 85 for the short term (next 2 months or so) i think i can do it if i get motivated!

    I wish I understood why people are so tied up on weight. It is a meaningless number.

    Focus on getting healthy and fit. Exercise regularly. Eat good, real food. Drink less. Enjoy life (you're 18!).

    yes i know its number and once i get close i tend to not worry about it :) its just the fact it came back.. once i got within 5 kilos of my goal weight i started making other goals such as running for 30 minutes straight (which as also dropped to 15 minutes now :() i know this sounds like a sob story but just need advice on what to do in terms of weight loss for the gym? ive hear your body gets 'used to' exercises and stops burning fat from them, is that actually true?
