How To Get Motivated With Losing Weight – Dr.Berg on Weight Loss Motivation
Are you struggling to stay motivated to lose weight? Here’s what you need to know.
okay so here’s a question how do I get motivated how do I stay motivated how do I get my willpower back all right well first of all most people are they lose their motivation because they don’t see results there’s nothing more frustrating than hitting a plateau or doing a program and it sto working so that is normal to lose your motivation when it doesn’t work when you don’t get results it’s normal to stop doing it because if you kept doing it you’re going to destroy your metabolism so right there it’s good that you stop because you’re doing something that’s not working I mean who wants to starve thems for eight months or go to the gym when it’s not working okay so number one no results that’s why people lose motivation number two they don’t know what to do they don’t have a plan they don’t they’re operating off of all the trivial stuff I’ll give you an example I had this patient come in and she told me I know what to do but I just don’t do it and then I come find out she’s she’s like getting her information on WebMD which is pretty much just all Pharmaceuticals and it’s just a bunch of honestly just general information confusing information um it’s not the good stuff so she learned that there was a study that if you fidget while you’re watching TV you know fidget in the chair you’ll burn an extra couple calories every 15 minutes okay crazy so in other words you don’t want to focus on the trivial information you want to focus on the Vital Information you need less information not more okay so please don’t just go do your re research on Google and get more information find someone that’s done it successful and follow in their Footprints and that way you know you can learn what to do so we have knowing what to do we have getting results and then we have cravings because if you crave I’m sorry it’s going to be real hard to do it now you might think Cravings can’t go away like they’re just part of life they’re normal they’re not it’s not normal to Crave anything unless your body is out of balance so the best way to get rid of Cravings would be to consume a lot more greens vegetables like 7even cups of vegetable or Salad per day do the kale Shake in the morning of course have the protein as well but your craving should go away within 48 Hours okay and if they’re still there then you need to add a little protein okay also all bad habits occur when you’re stressed hungry and tired so focus on that focus on getting rid of your stress take time for yourself go for a walk you know put energy and invest in you um do things to get more sleep so you can have more energy so you can stick with it better all right so the way to get motivated is not to get more hype but to learn how to do it correctly realize the thing that you did didn’t work so don’t keep doing it find something that does work and thirdly get rid of the Cravings to make it easier all right so that’s how you need to stay motivated and of course you need to find a reason to lose weight um I think uh people are um are very excited to get younger as they get older so maybe you have a goal of getting younger maybe you have a goal of getting in a bikini or something like that but you need to set a goal and then when you hit that goal you better have a new goal because what’s going to happen is that you’re you have no more goal you you achieve your goal and it’s over so when you lose your weight then you start another goal like get more fit get more toned so you have to keep actively doing it especially as you age every year you get older you really need to get more fit and younger to survive the hormones that are coming at you this way because if you look at the hormone graph it’s this Ting so you can’t just maintain it with a little effort the I guess what you have to do is you have to increase your estimation of effort to overcome all the counter efforts coming in with family stresses with your kids with your work with the health of your body and the aging process okay so that’s how you get motivated
