fitness guide for Beginners & Lazy Girls 💫

DON'T START OFF TRYING TO FIX THE ISSUE WITH MONEY. if you're not an active person who enjoys exercise, you shouldn't be paying for a yearly sub to an expensive gym just because the new year sparkle made you feel like 2025 is your glow up year. this feeling will wear off and leave you with a sense of frustration and failure.

do start off with FINDING OUT WHAT KIND OF MOVEMENT MAKES YOU HAPPY and makes you come back for more. try out different things. dance, run, play a sport, swim, lift weights, do yoga, whatever it is, and really get the feel of what releases all those good chems on your brain.

TAKE IT VERY EASY AT FIRST. if you don't ever work out, there is literally no reason for you to be doing the most out of a sudden and trying to make up for lost time in one session. you will only harm your body and discourage yourself by feeling hurt. it takes a long time to get used to new movement. give your body time and take baby steps when you start.

LEARN ABOUT WHAT YOUR BODY IS AND WHAT IT CAN BE. if you don't know the first thing about your anatomy and your nutritional habits, you will fall into easy traps that take away motivation and harm your discipline. (for example, when you're overweight and you start dieting and working out, you'll likely lose a lot of weight in the first weeks, more than a normal weight person would; you need to know that, so that when your weight loss slows down, you'll understand that it's not due to you failing but a natural part of the process.)

SEPARATE YOUR HEALTH FROM YOUR APPEARANCE. fitness will improve both, but you have to have a very clear line separating them because they are not inclusive of one another. you can look gorgeous and be unhealthy, and you can be healthy and not look like your ideal self. it's very important to know which is which, and to always prioritize your health.

you don't have to do a lot (you actually can't do a lot at first like I said above) but JUST DOING WHATEVER IS NOT GONNA CUT IT either. no, doing one minute of exercise daily is not gonna bring about health or appearance benefits, no matter how hardcore that one minute feels like. you should aim for at least 30 minutes of focused and continuous physical activity, because that's how you get results but also it's how you build an actual routine.

always remember that YOU CAN CHANGE WHATEVER IS NOT WORKING FOR YOU, at any time, for whatever reason you decide. if working out in the middle of the afternoon is better for you than working out as soon as you wake up, go for it. if you suddenly realize that you're not a pilates princess but actually a muscle mommy, go for it. don't get stuck trying to follow one path forever, go with the flow. remember that this journey will change you, so it's normal that your methods will change too.

BE VERY HONEST ABOUT YOUR DIET, because you can't outrun your fork, especially if your fitness goal is to lose weight. yes, building muscle mass and using your energy expenditure on exercise will help, but it's your diet that determines whether your body is receiving more or less than it is giving away, and if you're in denial about how much or how healthy are your food decisions, then it will be really hard to balance it all out. I'm not saying you need to give up eating anything at all, but if you are in a position where your diet is harming your health and/or your appearance, then it is obvious that you will have to sacrifice something, whether cutting back on portions and frequency, whether it's actually cutting off some foods.

and finally, EMBRACE YOUR LAZINESS! embrace that you dislike working out and that it's not your thing! trust me, exercise is not something you have to love in order to do. if you have to treat it as a necessity rather than a hobby or a fun activity, so what? if you accept that you're never gonna be one of those "the gym is addictive!" people, and still you manage to work out and stay fit, it's only gonna feel thatuch more amazing to you, because you'll know you're doing something you need to do even though you don't want to do it. don't deny or fight against your nature, work with it!

GOOD LUCK, LITTLE STAR 💫

[honeytonedhottie]

so you're my only hope and i really wish for your advice. it's humiliating to say my story but i really need help. so i was misdiagnosed with schizofrenia (i 100% know i'm healthy) i need to lie that i have schizofrenia because my mother needs money. and here comes my desires : revision and desired age/grade level and maaany more. i have no responsibilities literally zero! the way i manifest is i walk around my room and viseualise, affirm and overall manifest which is fun but the thing is do you think i should build healthy day routine instead of just pacing around my room all day long? could you provide me a routine? thank you for help because yall are saving me for real. it could be even self care habits to do every day anything to avoid pacing around

thank you for coming to me 💗 and im so sorry about ur story. im so happy that you know the law because you deserve all of ur desires and more!! 💗

so to build a healthy routine and schedule for urself. doing so builds discipline. im gonna give u some healthy habits, a morning and evening routine, and resources for those things. a good place to start tho is making a weekly agenda that changes with the week, something to switch things up every week. just make one 💗💗💗

—healthy habits🩰⊹ ⋆⁺₊⋆ ♡̴ ⋆⁺₊⋆

♡ moving ur body/pilates - i personally do pilates and i recommend it to literally everybody. but the basic idea is to move around (and that does not mean pacing in ur bedroom) i mean get ur blood flowing and get moving. it doesn’t have to be pilates it can be running, a sport, dancing, yoga etc

here’s a link to one of the pilates workouts that i recommend if ur a beginner : 

♡ get a hobby - some hobby recommendations: if u are good at writing try poetry, try teaching urself how to draw or paint or sculpt, learn how to dance, learn how to play an instrument, learn a sport, learn languages, become a good cook, write stories, start a blog, learn to sew or crotchet, learn tech, read lots of books, watch/listen to lots of podcasts. literally just get busy 

♡ meditating and journaling - this is so good not only for ur mental health but it can also improve focus and keep u grounded. keep a journal or start meditating every day

here’s a link to a guided meditation for self love : 

♡ self care - i LOVE self care. literally practice self care every single day. take care of ur nails, skin, hair, lashes EVERYTHING. be super intentional with ur self care bcuz it tells our brains that we are worthy of effort and it’ll LITERALLY make u feel like a princess. 

♡ manifesting - you mentioned that u wanted to do some revision so something that i recommend for revising is using SATS. or state akin to sleep. once ur in state akin to sleep go back in ur mind and revise whatever u want. or just do SATS before bed every night. this is such a powerful manifesting tool

♡ sleep - aim to get between eight to ten hours of sleep a night. you’ll look better, feel better, and your physical and mental health will just skyrocket 

—morning🌸⊹ ⋆⁺₊⋆ ♡̴ ⋆⁺₊⋆

♡̴ first thing in the morning, fix ur bed 

♡ open the blinds/windows if the sun is out, this all depends on what time u wake up but if the sun isn’t out just skip this step 

♡ stretch for a couple minutes 

♡ write down at least three things that ur grateful for (don’t write down what u aren’t grateful for AT THAT MOMENT, literally just write down three things that ur grateful for right then and there) 

♡ brush ur teeth and use a tongue scraper 

♡ have a glass of water with some lemon slices 

♡ take a warm shower and moisturize 

♡ skincare routine 

♡ put on an outfit that makes u feel pretty 

♡ if u get nauseous when u eat breakfast then try eating something light, but if that doesn’t work then listen to ur body and just skip breakfast. if that’s not the case tho eat a balanced breakfast 

THEN GET TO WORK ON YOUR AGENDA THAT I MENTIONED IN THE BEGINNING<3 

—evening🍥⊹ ⋆⁺₊⋆ ♡̴ ⋆⁺₊⋆

♡ take a warm shower and moisturize 

♡ 30-60 minutes of self care and pampering 

♡ make a yummy dinner that’s nourishing 

♡ read for 20 minutes or watch something that enriches u 

♡ evening yoga 

♡ drink water 15 minutes before bed 

THEN GO TO SLEEP AND HAVE SWEET DREAMS <3 

this is just an idea, or a basic guideline to follow if u need it. customize it to ur specific needs and day-to-day life. im so excited for all ur desires to manifest cuz u deserve it! mwah 💗💗💗

Dieting and Working Out As A Trans Individual~

—BEFORE— I begin I want to say that this post is for those who are considering it/don't know where to start. For those who may need weight loss for a surgery (some surgeons suggest it) and health reasons. For those who are thinking about trying it out. For the many many reasons someone may want to~

This is not me giving medical advice—This is all based on my personal journey/experience and to help give ideas on things. Please consult with a doctor about a huge amount of weight loss/your diet.

Where to start—

Do not start with goals immediately. Start with writing down reasonable ideas on what type of weight loss you want to achieve. If you want fast weight loss and to lose a huge amount a doctor is needed. If you want to find a specific diet such as Keto please inform your doctor and get their suggestions as they know your body's medical history and can alert you to any risks with specific diets. If you want to slowly lose weight and ease into things try to write down a reasonable number you want to lose every week to two weeks. Example: 1 or 2 pounds a week/two weeks. Do you want less fat, more muscle, more defined curves, etc? Write down what can be achievable for you right now in this present moment. Example: I want more muscle and less fat so beginner weight lifting/cardio may be the best bet.

Write down different ideas you may be interested in regarding workouts. Some like sports, some prefer a gym, or maybe you want to workout at home. What types of workouts do you feel your body can handle and benefit from?

Dieting is similar. Write down different diets you know you have an easier time with. Ones that you can work on and do. Do not start off strict immediately.

When you diet slowly cut out/down things. It can be hard to stop certain foods like carbs or sugar cold turkey. Lower the amount or intake you can have over time. You can have something here and there but lower how much of it you eat.

Look into what type of workouts are out there and available for you. I put together a workout playlist with yoga first for stretching, beginner weight lifting second, and cardio third. Altogether its an hour and a half of workout and its beginner friendly and things I am currently physically capable of doing.

Your body will be sore for a while at first so make sure you have access to ibuprofen. That specific drug is also anti-inflammatory.

IF scales trigger you I would suggest finding a way you don't have to weigh yourself often or you don't have to weigh yourself at all. I never do. Scales make my self-esteem plummet. Its okay not to pressure yourself with numbers or weigh yourself every week.

If you don't know how much you want to lose but you still want to lose weight that's okay too! You don't need a goal. You can take it at your own pace and just learn as you go.

Are You Making These Common Gym Mistakes as a Beginner?

Beginners in the gym often make several common mistakes, which can hinder progress and even lead to injuries. 

Here are some of the most frequent gym mistakes and how to avoid them:

1. Using Incorrect Form

Mistake: Poor form during exercises is one of the most common mistakes, leading to strain on joints and muscles, and increasing the risk of injury.

Avoidance: Focus on learning proper technique before increasing weights or intensity. Consider working with a trainer initially to ensure you’re performing exercises correctly.

2. Lifting Too Heavy Too Soon

Mistake: Beginners often try to lift heavier weights than their body is ready for, which can lead to poor form, injury, or burnout.

Avoidance: Start with light weights to master the movement, and gradually increase the weight as you become more comfortable and confident in your technique.

3. Neglecting Warm-Up and Cool-Down

Mistake: Skipping warm-ups before exercise and cool-downs afterward can result in muscle stiffness and a higher risk of injury.

Avoidance: Always perform a dynamic warm-up (e.g., light cardio, mobility exercises) before your workout, and finish with a cool-down to stretch and promote recovery.

4. Overtraining or Working Out Too Often

Mistake: Many beginners think that more workouts mean faster results, leading to overtraining without allowing proper recovery.

Avoidance: Ensure adequate rest between workouts. Follow a well-balanced workout routine, including rest days, to avoid injury and give muscles time to recover and grow.

5. Ignoring Mobility and Flexibility

Mistake: Beginners often focus only on strength or endurance without addressing mobility or flexibility, leading to muscle imbalances and limited range of motion.

Avoidance: Include mobility and flexibility exercises (e.g., yoga, dynamic stretching) in your routine to improve performance and prevent injuries.

6. Skipping Leg Day

Mistake: Many beginners focus on upper body exercises (e.g., chest, arms) and neglect leg exercises, leading to muscle imbalances.

Avoidance: Maintain a balanced workout routine that includes leg exercises (e.g., squats, lunges) to build overall strength and prevent muscle imbalances.

7. Not Tracking Progress

Mistake: Not keeping track of progress can make it hard to know if you’re improving or if adjustments need to be made to your routine.

Avoidance: Track your workouts, weights, reps, and any physical changes (e.g., body measurements, strength) to monitor your progress and stay motivated.

8. Focusing Too Much on Cardio

Mistake: Beginners often do excessive cardio with the goal of losing weight, neglecting strength training, which is crucial for building muscle and boosting metabolism.

Avoidance: Combine both strength training and cardio for a balanced fitness routine. Strength training is important for muscle building, fat loss, and overall fitness.

9. Not Hydrating Properly

Mistake: Many beginners neglect hydration, which can negatively impact performance and recovery.

Avoidance: Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your workout to stay hydrated and maintain peak performance.

10. Over-Reliance on Machines

Mistake: Using only gym machines and avoiding free weights or bodyweight exercises can limit the development of functional strength and stability.

Avoidance: Incorporate a mix of free weights, machines, and bodyweight exercises to improve overall muscle activation and functional strength.

11. Not Resting Enough Between Sets

Mistake: Either resting too little or too long between sets can lead to poor workout efficiency or inadequate recovery.

Avoidance: Rest appropriately between sets (usually 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the type of training) to allow muscles to recover without losing intensity.

12. Comparing Yourself to Others

Mistake: It’s easy to compare your progress to others in the gym, especially if they’re more experienced or have a different physique.

Avoidance: Focus on your own progress, set personal goals, and celebrate your improvements without worrying about what others are doing.

13. Skipping Proper Nutrition

Mistake: Beginners often underestimate the importance of nutrition, either by not eating enough or by focusing too much on supplements rather than whole foods.

Avoidance: Fuel your body with balanced meals that include a mix of protein, healthy fats, and carbs. Make sure to eat enough to support your workout intensity and recovery needs.

14. Lack of Variety in Workouts

Mistake: Sticking to the same routine for too long can cause stagnation, leading to plateaus in progress and potential overuse injuries.

Avoidance: Change your workout routine every few weeks to target muscles from different angles, prevent boredom, and keep your body adapting.

15. Not Getting Enough Sleep

Mistake: Poor sleep can hinder muscle recovery and growth, leading to fatigue and poor performance.

Avoidance: Prioritize sleep, aiming for 7-9 hours each night to allow your body to fully recover and perform at its best.

By avoiding these common mistakes, beginners can ensure more effective workouts, better results, and a safer, more enjoyable fitness journey. Stay consistent, listen to your body, and don’t be afraid to ask for help when needed!

yoga tips!

anything I thought may help a beginner 💗

✨benefits of regular practice of yoga:

improved strength, endurance, flexibility

lower anxiety+increases in serotonin levels

decrease risk of heart attack and stroke

weight loss (both directly and bc reducing other stressors makes it easier to lose weight)

reduce chronic pain and improve funtional mobility (when combined with meditation)

improved sleep (alternative treatment for insomnia)

source: literature review of many studies

���for your first class:

don’t buy ANYTHING. i get it, there are a million cute leggings, tops, mats, blocks, bolsters, gym bags, water bottles…but you don’t need any of it to practice yoga. at least wait until you’ve attended a month so you know you enjoy it

wear: any comfy clothes you can stretch and move easily in or your favorite workout clothes (leggings, sweats, joggers, t shirt, tank top, sports bra it all works), socks 🧦

(if you’re doing hot yoga, you may prefer looser clothes)

try to go in person if possible. youtube is great once you understand the poses but those first few times your posture improves so much with instruction!

bring: a water bottle and hand towel (put this on the mat as a barrier if instructed to put your face on the mat)

come five min early to lay out a borrowed mat, straps, blocks (or bolsters, blankets if doing restorative), water bottle, towel

remove your shoes 👟

participate to the best of your ability, its not a competition

try the meditation, even if it seems awkward at first

✨now that you practice regularly

try out a new style if you want a greater challenge (or gentler approach)

keep an eye out for pop-up events (often ‘yoga in the park/square/beach’ when there’s good weather) to mix it up

if you’re ready to buy some gear the good trade wrote about a range of environmentally sustainable ♻️, ethically produced activewear (x), mats and other tools (don’t buy through their links if you don’t want them to get commission, just google it yourself)

good luck on your yoga journey!

Omg??? So I have been terrified to work out because I just know that it's going to fucking hurt so bad because of my chronic pain but because of the pain I don't move around a lot and that makes it worse!!! And I've been on yt shorts and I just came across this guy who's doing like, beginner stuff for working out and when I saw it my ADHD ass was like oh my god that looks like something I'd do anyway when I have an energy burst?? And I tried it because it looked so low maintenance and I was SO SUS like NO WORKOUTS work for me I have always hated it and it hurts so bad and I want to be strong so bad like I was as a kid but I just lost it because of this pain. But this .. looks different like maybe I could do it it looks fun? And not hard? So I tried it and ???? It was fun? It was easy??? And i could ACTUALLY FEEL IT WORKING MY BODY and finally RELIEVING SOME OF THAT SHOULDER/NECK/AND BACK PAIN I CAN NEVER GET RID OF!!! it literally only took like 2/3 minutes because like hell fucking no I'm not going to be working out 10 FUCKING MINUTES no I can barely take my laundry to my bedroom. So I only did a few sets but it was so helpful I was flabbergasted . And I kept looking though his stuff...... Dude these are the easiest workouts I've ever done! I was like so ready to give up on the idea and try something else like yoga but it's like a mix of all of it! And it's SOOOO easy for me especially when I can barely hold my shoulders back on a good day and my posture needs a brace and it RELIEVES SO MUCH TENSION! I was maybe working out for like 15? Minutes? And that's like with lots of break baby I need to sit down for a second watch you do it and become comfortable with it. But still with all that in-between time and actually doing the workouts I was really getting my heart rate up and I could feel my muscles loosening up and I could feel the relief in my shoulders and neck and it was like I had a religious experience. I have never wanted to continue a work out I have never wanted to follow anyone on yt or anything that's doing that but this one is genuinely helping me and I'm ... Actually a little excited to try and do it everyday? To try and help me move around? And relieve so much of the pain I have and can't relieve without my medication right now.. And maybe even lose weight if I'm so brave? Become the strong person I was and have wanted to be? This is kind of super new for me like I'm 25 and I have really thought nothing was gonna get better for this because of my situation and it was just gonna get worse but.. this is so helpful.. I have fallen so far because of my illnesses and I have really not seen much hope for getting onto something that seems attainable and like could actually have a positive impact on my life. Something truly beginner that doesn't make me feel like I can't even do a beginner workout and give up. This is helping me so much and I'm honestly thankful for it. I actually.. think I want to try and do this more?

The Gym Beginner's Tip No One Will Tell You About

I’ll tell you all something that no other personal trainer in the fitness industry will tell you. It’s nothing new, and all trainers and instructors know this very well. The only reason you’ll never hear a trainer mention this publicly is because they will miss out on potential money by sharing this information with you. Before I share this information, I’ll give you my own credentials so you know I’m not just pulling your leg (although I’m certain most of you will already know this information intuitively).

If you’re new here, hello! My name is Aleena! I’m a NASM Certified personal trainer, and I’ve been working in the fitness industry for nearly three years now. That’s not a terribly long time, however I’ve experienced massive growth and success in my career since I’ve began as a personal trainer. First a trainer then a class instructor and eight months later I was gifted with the opportunity to become a fitness manager. I work for a boutique gym located in Downtown Los Angeles and the entire premise of my job is help the other trainers in my facility grow in their own training abilities. Beyond my career, I’ve been active my whole life. I ran track in elementary school, played basketball throughout middle school and high school, and was an active gym rat in college continuing on. When COVID struck and we all went into quarantine, I became a yoga nut and runner, and you can most certainly bet as soon as gyms opened up I found myself right back in there. Post-COVID I got my first ever personal trainer and quickly realized how easily I could translate the information I had learned throughout my life to help others in their own health and fitness journeys. A few months later I was certified and ready to start building in my profession. The growth has been unreal, but I feel it’s a deep indication of how I have found the path that is right for me. 

So what is it that other personal trainers won’t tell you?

You don’t NEED a personal trainer. Sure, that sounds normal and understandable, so let me clarify with more information. 

You don’t need a personal trainer for the FIRST THREE MONTHS of your fitness journey.

It’s a fairly intuitive understanding, but most of us will get scared to do something new on our own. The reason I say the first three months is because, if you’ve never done anything fitness related or it’s simply been a long time since you’ve been active, the first three months should be dedicated to getting into the habit of becoming active. If we’ve been sedentary for a long time, quite literally any consistent movement will yield results.

I like to explain it like this - if you pick up a weight and you move the weight in some way and you do this everyday for 90 days, you will see a change. It doesn’t matter what you do with this weight. You can pull it, press it, raise it, walk with it. Just do it every single day for 90 days and watch how something will change. Now… it may not be the change you want to see, but there will be change. This is something we all know, and yet no trainer is going to tell you this. Instead (as an unfortunate result of the capitalistic nature of our society) they’ll try to sell you on the idea that you have absolutely no clue what you’re doing and you need a trainer’s guidance in order to make change happen. 

Here’s my issue with that - most people know what they want, but they don’t have specific and fully developed fitness goals. I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve sat down with a beginner client and asked what their goals are and the answer I get in return is something along the lines of “I want to lose 20 pounds” or “I want to tone up.” In turn I’d have to get specific with them by asking what movements they want to learn, what modalities they do and don’t enjoy, what amount of time they are realistically able to dedicate to their fitness, and so on and so forth. My job is to be a trainer, and I actually do enjoy having these conversations with people, but there’s room for error when we start from ground zero together. 

Firstly, and I say this with absolute conviction, your only friend in the gym should not be your trainer. Community at the gym is proven way to keep people motivated and interested in their fitness. People will stay at the same gym, even when the equipment is falling apart, the AC is leaking or broken, or the staff is terrible, because of the people they see at the gym. People also find more motivation to show up to the gym when they know their friends or their gym crush is going to be there. You should establish some semblance of a gym community before you start working with a trainer. Secondly, shoveling money out of your pocket will definitely weigh you down in the hopes of seeing results. Generally when we pay for something, we look for instant gratification (we can again blame capitalism and rampant consumerism for this). Fitness never has been and never will be a source of instant gratification. In order to trust the process, avoid paying the big bucks up front and instead see what you can and can’t do on your own. Show yourself that the change is possible first, before you begin to invest in a trainer, that the way when you’re paying for a trainer’s guidance you already know that it’s well worth it because you know the results will come cause you’ve already seen how consistency on your own made change. Thirdly, these initial 90 days that you spend working out on your own will be the source of inspiration. You will get to spend time in a gym, or just moving your body and trying to learn more on your own. This gives you the time to become specific with what it is you want to do. It’s day 1 in the gym and you have no idea what a deadlift is, but now it’s day 90 in the gym and you’ve seen the same girl deadlifting since day 1, so you did your research and now you a specified goal to take to the trainer you end up working with. Specified goals will also help you when trying to select a trainer. Every trainer can teach you how to deadlift, but a barbell technique specific trainer is going to teach you the sport of the deadlift. You wouldn’t ask a math teacher to help you write an english essay, and same applies here. You wouldn’t ask a body building coach to teach you athleticism and mobility. You wouldn’t as a powerlifting coach to teach you how to become absolutely shredded. Become specific, and the path will become obvious. 

I’ve given you my three reasons as to why I believe people should start their fitness journeys on their own.

I’ll also share with you the exceptions I have to this belief. 

First, if you struggle with discipline or motivation, this will not work for you. If this is the case, I recommend looking for a coach, not a trainer. You may be thinking… what’s the difference. There’s a huge difference. A trainer will tell you what to do when to do it, they’ll show you how to do things correctly and they’ll send you on your merry way. A coach will do all of those things, but they’ll also help you build sustainable habits, they’ll help you push past your limiting beliefs, they’ll hold you accountable and do check-ins with you, they’ll make appropriate adjustments to your program without you having to say anything, they will monitor ver closely, your journey and course correct if something is not lining up with the path. Second, if you’ve had multiple failed starts to your fitness journey, I also believe looking for a coach will benefit you for the same reasons above. You may already have some knowledge around fitness, or you may have been very active back in the day, but again - the struggle is consistency and accountability. A coach is meant to be an accountability partner, it goes deeper than teaching someone the movements, it’s about reworking the brain’s chemistry associated with fitness. 

If you don’t fall into either of these exception categories, then to you I say, pick up a weight and start moving it. We’ll talk in 90 days!

10 weight loss tips for beginners

Certainly! Here are some tips for weight loss:

Set realistic goals: Start by setting achievable and realistic weight loss goals. Aim for a gradual and sustainable weight loss of 1-2 pounds per week.

Eat a balanced diet: Focus on consuming a balanced diet that includes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Avoid or limit processed foods, sugary snacks, and beverages.

Portion control: Be mindful of portion sizes. Use smaller plates and bowls to help control the amount of food you eat. Avoid eating directly from packages, as it's easy to overeat.

Drink plenty of water: Staying hydrated can help with weight loss. Drink water before meals to help control your appetite and replace sugary beverages with water or unsweetened tea.

Eat mindfully: Pay attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues. Slow down while eating, savor each bite, and avoid distractions like TV or smartphones. This can help prevent overeating.

Regular physical activity: Engage in regular exercise or physical activity to burn calories and boost your metabolism. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity per week.

Strength training: Incorporate strength training exercises into your routine. Building muscle can increase your metabolism and help you burn more calories even at rest.

Get enough sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night. Poor sleep can disrupt your metabolism, increase hunger hormones, and make weight loss more challenging.

Manage stress: Find healthy ways to manage stress, such as practicing mindfulness, deep breathing exercises, yoga, or engaging in hobbies. Stress can contribute to overeating or making unhealthy food choices.

Stay consistent: Consistency is key for weight loss. Adopt healthy habits and stick to them over the long term. Remember that sustainable weight loss takes time and effort.

Weight Loss for Beginners: A Simple, No-Nonsense Guide

So, you’ve decided to lose weight. Maybe your jeans are feeling a little tighter, or you’re just tired of feeling sluggish. Whatever the reason, you’re here because you want to get started. But let’s be honest—weight loss can feel overwhelming. Diets, workouts, calorie counting… where do you even begin?

Relax. Take a deep breath. You don’t need to turn your life upside down overnight. Instead, let’s break it down into a simple, realistic, and—dare I say—enjoyable journey.

1. Start with Your ‘Why’ 🧐

Before you jump into meal plans and workout routines, ask yourself: Why do I want to lose weight? Is it to feel healthier? To have more energy? To gain confidence? Having a clear reason will keep you motivated when things get tough (and trust me, they will).

Write your "why" down. Stick it on your fridge, your bathroom mirror, or your phone’s lock screen. When motivation dips, this will remind you why you started.

2. Forget Crash Diets 🚫🍽️

Let’s get this out of the way: extreme diets don’t work in the long run. Sure, you might lose 10 pounds in two weeks, but if you're starving and miserable, you’ll likely gain it all back (plus more). Instead of chasing quick fixes, focus on sustainable changes.

Start small:

✅ Swap soda for water.

✅ Add more veggies to your meals.

✅ Reduce portion sizes gradually.

No need to go from burgers to salads overnight. Small, consistent changes are the secret sauce to lasting weight loss.

3. Move Your Body, But Keep It Fun 🎉🏋️

Exercise shouldn’t feel like punishment. You don’t have to spend hours in the gym if that’s not your thing. The goal is to move more, however you enjoy it.

Hate running? Skip it. Love dancing? Blast your favorite music and dance like nobody’s watching. Prefer something chill? Try yoga or long walks. The best workout is the one you’ll actually do.

4. Watch Your Portions (Without Weighing Every Bite) 🍽️

You don’t need to measure every gram of food, but portion control is key. Try using smaller plates, eating slower, and stopping when you’re 80% full.

A simple trick: Half your plate should be veggies, a quarter protein, and a quarter carbs. This helps you eat balanced meals without overthinking it.

Wait a second! Take a look at this incredible weight loss transformation—one of my students achieved this in just 6 months!, yes proper exercises and dieting help but you have to back it up with at least one weight loss supplement for better and faster results, If you're serious about losing weight, I highly recommend the same product that’s been helping my students see real results. It’s safe, effective, and free from side effects. Ready to start your own journey?

You can do it too stop holding back, remember no one can do it for you

5. Drink More Water (Seriously, It Helps!) 💧

You’ve probably heard this a million times, but here’s why water matters:

It keeps you full, so you snack less.

It boosts your metabolism.

It helps your body flush out toxins.

Aim for at least 8 glasses a day. And no, soda or sugary juices don’t count!

6. Sleep & Stress Matter More Than You Think 😴💆

You could be eating healthy and working out, but if you’re constantly stressed and sleep-deprived, weight loss will be harder.

Lack of sleep messes with your hunger hormones, making you crave junk food. Stress does the same. Prioritize rest and find ways to relax—meditation, deep breathing, or even just laughing at funny videos can help.

7. Don’t Obsess Over the Scale ⚖️

Your weight will fluctuate daily. Some days you’ll lose, some days you won’t—it’s normal. Instead of stressing over numbers, focus on:

✅ How your clothes fit.

✅ How much energy you have.

✅ Your strength and endurance improving.

The scale is just one measure of progress. Don’t let it control you.

8. Be Kind to Yourself ❤️

Weight loss isn’t a straight line. You’ll have good days, bad days, and days where you eat an entire pizza. That’s okay! What matters is that you keep going.

One bad meal won’t ruin your progress, just like one salad won’t magically make you fit. Progress, not perfection, is the goal.

Final Thought: Just Start 🚀

You don’t need the perfect diet or workout plan to begin. Start where you are, make small changes, and build from there. Your future self will thank you!

Truth be told the whole process of losing weight is hard and stressful, it's better you backup your hard work with at least one weight loss supplement for better and faster results, try the same weight loss product all my students use, it works really well, LINK IN BIO

So, what’s one small change you can make today? Drop a comment and let’s do this together! 💪🔥
