okay so here’s a question how do I get

motivated how do I stay motivated how do

I get my willpower back alright 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 stopped 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

themselves 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 an example I

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 this are

pharmaceuticals and it’s just a bunch of

honestly just general information

confusing information it’s not the good

stuff so she learned that there was a

study that if you fidget while you’re

watching TV you now fidget the chair

you’ll burn an extra a 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 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

craving

would be to consume a lot more green

vegetables like seven cups of vegetable

or salad per day do the kale shake in

the morning course have the protein as

well but your cravings 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 dust in you 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 it does

work and thirdly get rid of the cravings

to make it easier alright so that’s how

you need to stay motivated and of course

you need to find a reason to lose weight

I think people are 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 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 just plummeting

so you can’t just maintain it with a

little effort but I guess see 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
