Hey! Happy to help anyone improve their health!
The big change for me is when I found an internal locus of motivation, rather than an external one. Meaning I was doing it for me, rather than for someone/something else. That was realising, that all i want to to is be healthy, live a long life, and be a good example to my patients when I finally become a Dr.
What I've done is remove junk food, except for a small treat every day (like a piece of good dark chocolate). I ate a SHOCKING amount of junk food...let's not talk about it lol...
With not buying junk food..i'm also saving a lot of moolah :dollar: lol
Anyhoo...
In my meals I also follow the Idaho plate method,seeing as I can't count calories to save my life, half veggies, quarter carbs and quarter protein on my plate, as well as a piece of fruit/dairy desert per meal. That should give you a lot of the nutrition you need (diabetics also find this method quite useful), as the carb content of their diet is quite significantly reduced. I also take a multivitamin, some generic one from ASDA.
The veggies (especially big lush salads) help fill me up, so I don't feel deprived at all, and the small treat stops me binging because I don't feel hard done by.
I also remember that the best workout plan won't help you unless you're eating right, so I've chosen to focus mostly on getting my diet right for now.
In terms of exercise, I've upped my walking and stuff as well, and I dance like crazy in my room everyday haha
HTH!
