Lost weight...gained weight back
I'm 16/f. Ok, so last year, I lost 30 pounds. But during winter I always gained weight. And last year i became a basketball manager, so I never had anymore time to exersize. Well I gained most of it back, and I'm really starting to hate my body again. When I lost weight I was so happy all of the time, I felt like I was on top of the world. Well now I usually feel depressed, because my body is back to its usual self. So what can I do to get back in the habit of loosing weight? I've tried to start working out again, but it's just not working. Some tips please? I can't figure out if it's just because I'm not motivated or what, but some ideas would really help. Thanks!

Well , ive been through
the same thing you have i lost weight
as well and seem to gain it back when i slack off.
its like an up and down sort of thing.
I seriously hate it but anyways ,
some tips ive learned are the following
1. eat well ( fruits ,vegies, meat , etc.)
2. get enough sleep atleast 8 hours
3. dont be a couch potatoe get out more often
4. drink PLENTY water , it helps clean your
system .
5. eat 3-5 times a day [no junk food]
6. pick a day of the week to "pig out"
but dont pass the limit, for example,
i usually eat ice creams on saturdays or pizza
when i go out with the family or friends
DO NOT STARVE YOURSELF !! thats a major no-no
dont even think about the other unsafe things.
since your the manager, why not practice with your
team get in the game as well.

You have probably heard this expression before but, motivation is key. And it really is.
If you want it bad enough you most certainly can do it. Afterall, you have done it before, you lost thirty pounds! It sounds like you have motivation, which is that you are becoming uncomfortable with how your body looks. Maybe you should try thinking of how you felt before when you had lost the thirty pounds. You probably felt happy, proud, and accomplished.. And also satisfied and more happy with your body right? Ask yourself how badly you want to have that feeling of liking your body more again. That should be your motivation. How you look isn't everything, but how you feel about yourself means alot. And if how you look affects how you feel about yourself then that is important. But if you want to lose some weight, do it safetly and healthily. Eat healthy and find time to excersize more. There is no such thing as not having time to exersize. You walk everyday don't you? That is exersize right there! Take longer routes to places, try running/jogging more often, if you don't have much time on your hands then try doing sit-ups and crunches whenever you get the chance. Set a goal for yourself, write down a exersize plan if you must. Write an excersize such as sit-ups, and write a number as to how many you want to do, etc. Maybe this will help motivate you too. Honestly, I've done that before, and it helped and actually got me excited and motivated to losing a little bit of fat.
Hope this helps, if you need any more help with anything feel free to ask!
Thanks,
:)
