I am in your position when you started. I'm currently 173lbs and I started working out last week but then I digress, then start again.

How did you keep going each day? Sometimes I focus to much and psyche myself.

I don't very much like my belly fat, this is the MOST I've ever weighed.

I try exercising 30 minutes a day but then quit and tell myself what's the point. But then that happened to me when I weighed 155lbs then the rest is history...

Assistance?

Of course-
It is hard.... I gave up for a whole year. I would go three days, and stop 10. and I still give up. I don’t have my goal body, and it’s been four years. but i am learning every single day.
You have to push yourself for the first two weeks. Find someone (gym buddy?), something (your goal, that treat meal), anything that will make you go.... The first two weeks are the devils work. the second week is the worst. you will be sore, tired, annoyed, angry, sleepy, lazy, unmotivated...just keep going.
Once the two weeks are over, you will start to feel better inside. maybe more energy, better skin, happiness cause by the release of endorphins. little by little, you will start to create a habit, and a new lifestyle. Make it fun! reward yourself with new gym shoes, new gym clothes, Pinterest and make healthy fun and delicious recipes...

At the end of the day: You have to do it for yourself. You have to remember every single day why you are doing this. You have to understand that in order to love, you must start with yourself. No one on this planet can care for you like you can. don’t psyche yourself out, because that causes stress, and stress causes belly fat (cortisol). don’t hang out with negative people. don’t put yourself in stressful situations. don’t stress the little things. Have a seat, feel the chair under your bum, and just breathe...listen to yourself inhale and exhale, and just live in that moment....and everything will be ok.

Don’t think about it as "i need to work out to get skinny". Think about it as "you time". Do things you enjoy.... there are so many option to fitness, lifting, running, plyometric, Zumba, yoga, whatever you like.

Next thing you know, you will start to shed the pounds... and then people will start asking you "how did you do it?", and then you get to share your story. don’t be embarrassed, or ashamed... be proud. you can do it!
and if you need accountability, i am here. send me a message.
