i don't feel like it's ever helped me to get 'excited' or 'really into' weight loss

motivation is one thing, and if you're pumped to start losing weight, then that's great. for me, that's never been so helpful because, most of the time i find weight loss is boring and sucks. i'd really rather not think of it and often if i do, it's not excitement, it's obsession and that doesn't help. it feels like a 'magic bullet' kind of thing when i'm excited for it and the reality is anything but. it's mostly about being practical.

i'm not saying nobody should get excited for it. sometimes putting in some kind of financial investment can keep you going or be motivational. buying workout clothes, a new cookbook, whatever other accessories. that is fun. the actual weight loss, though, for me is still a 'meh' experience that's not very exciting.

the exciting part for me, though, is the results. that is really really nice. having your clothing start to fit looser, finding it easier to move around and feeling stronger, that is worth getting excited over. for me, the process still sucks and i'd rather not get too involved and, ideally, i don't even want to think about it.
