in Health and Weight Loss
This time I have a very reasonable motivation. Yes, I needed to lose weight to be healthy. Yes, I was sick of not being able to go to any store and buy the clothes I like. Yes, I was sick of shop workers looking at me from head to tea and say "we do not have your size" with a look of satisfaction in their eyes. But this time it is different. I have to lose weight to be able to have a baby. First time in my life I want a child. First time in my life...

So this is important to me. And I need lots of support. I seem to get tired of all diets as I have to forbid myself of eating chocolate and deserts which is the one thing I cant say no.

I believe I dont eat enough. I mostly dont have any breakfast. I mostly dont eat much for lunch as I am not a fan of the catering service of my company. Food is mostly too oily or very slap dash. I like my food and I like it fine quality. I have the *****y attitude which is if I dont like it I wont put it in my mouth. So I mostly starve myself and when it comes to dinner I mostly long past the line to be able to eat less. So there comes fast food and rubbish food.

At least I know where I am wrong, right?

No, not right. Knowing where I'm wrong doesnt help at all as I always find an excuse to walk around the rules.

I want to look good in my bridal dress. And I want a baby.

I have 1 year guys. Waiting for your support.

Love,
Tawshan

    unfortunately you are wrong... its just not possible to gain weight because you eat too little...

    to be honest if wanting a baby isnt motivation enough to do some research and learn how the body works, work out how many calories you need, and find some regular exercise to do, then i dont know what strangers on the net can do for you?

    i dont mean to sound harsh... but only you can do it... not having support is just another excuse.

    I wish I explained myself better. I eat too little during the day and I go crazy on dinner time which i stated as here comes fast food.

    Wanting a baby is big motivation but trying so many times and losing my motivation when my weight lose stops or slows down to 0,1 kg per two weeks, yes I do feel that I need support from experienced people about not stressing about that period. I do know all the steps of this road but is it that bad to want some company to tell me I'm doing well?

    I never said I do not have support as my bf is my biggest support. But sometimes I find it annoying as he is in need of gaining weight.

    Start by reading this.

    Only you can provide yourself with the motivation because it's going to be you that has to put in the work. Just set a reasonable calorie deficit and have patience. It will happen.

    Good luck!
