1. Make comparisons

Making comparisons with other people will only lead to unnecessary demotivation. Understand that each person has their own different processes and challenges.

2. Being in the wrong environment

Anyone who wants to lose weight must surround themselves with people who have the same goal. If you stay in the environment of people who are not worried about this, it will be difficult to lose weight.

3. Thinking that eating healthily is enough to lose weight

Many people eat “healthy” but get the amounts wrong, so there is no calorie deficit and it becomes more difficult to lose weight.

Tips to start getting out of a sedentary lifestyle

  • Consume the right amount of water per day. To do this, multiply 35 by your weight; this is the correct amount you should consume;
  • Don’t follow very restrictive diets at first because you will get discouraged. Reduce the portions of what you are used to eating and avoid sugars, carbonated drinks, alcohol and fried foods;
  • Start training at home for just 10 minutes. Over time you will feel a natural urge to increase, but always start slowly;
  • Get quality sleep. If the body is tired due to poor sleep, the pleasure of doing physical activity is completely compromised.
