I’m trying to lose 15-20lbs I have no motivation and don’t know what I’m doing. I’m struggling and could use some tips,advice or motivation. I have been trying for months but have actually gained 10lbs and have gained fat 😢I just want to feel confident!

For a lower long term maintenance weight loss tip, focus on protein intake and lifting. More muscle = faster metabolism. And unless you have outside metabolic issues at play, it’s just calories in, calories out. There are easy calorie calculators online that factor in your weight, height, sex, and activity level to give you daily calorie totals for weight loss, gain, and maintenance

If that’s too much of a task, just start simple by focusing on cooking good, healthy food. Incorporate vegetables wherever you can. That way even if you’re not losing weight as a result, you’re at least giving your body better nutrition

My favorite easy meal for throwing in tons of veggies is red sauce pasta (like spaghetti). I just throw in a bag or two of spinach, chopped onion and bell peppers, etc. into the sauce

There are plenty of at home workout videos on YouTube for free! You can also use different heavier objects at home to DIY lift (like gallons of water) and sub that in as a weight instead of actual equipment

No problem! Also what helps me motivation wise is to remind myself that even just 10 minutes of a half assed at home workout is still better than nothing

You are totally right! I’m definitely going to be using that motto
