For those who are Overweight/Obese, please do not make the same mistake so many people do

I am no Doctor or nutrition. This is my pillars of how I went from Obese lvl3 to Overweight.

​

1) Don't try to lose weight fast, it is just going to make things worse in the long-term. You are big, and you will remain big for the next months/year.

2) Don't care about motivation to lose weight. If you want to lose weight you are going to be consistent and you are going to discipline yourself.

3) Diet is much more important than you might be led to believe. And by diet I mean eating PROPER food. Cut out all the processed food completely. Even things labeled for weight loss most probably has a lot of junk it. Try to eat whole foods. If the ingredients on the label has anything that you don't know, probably skip that, it is processed.

4) Don't be scared of saturated fat. Only go plant based if it is because of ethical reasons, otherwise eating food with protein and fat is going to satisfy you and make you feel better than going into high carb. Keto is good, but do your own thing, just AVOID processed food.

5) Exercise is GOOD for your health, but it is not the biggest factor in losing weight. Diet and consistency is the key. But I would 100% recommend working out as that is going to give you much more clarity in life + keeps you healthy.

6) Stare at yourself in the mirror every single day. Make effing sure you tell yourself that you will keep it up.

7) Weight yourself once every week

8) Don't let others bring you down. Family and friends can be the worst sometimes. Keep pushing, show them all how great you are.

9) No cheat days/meals. You already had a long break.

10) CONSISTANCY! I CANNOT tell you how important this is. But being consistent during times where you feel the most down/not motivated is the TRUE test
