Help! I need motivation to lose weight. Any ideas?
Cookie Diet December 13th, 2009
I’m fourteen, 5’2", and I weight 122 pounds. I’m average, but I’m very unhappy about my body. I do cheerleading and I’m always around super skinny girls so it seems as if being average isn’t good enough. No amount of confidence or self esteem booster will fix my mindset, the only cure would be for be to finally look good in my new jeans. The problem is, I feel like I HAVE to have those cookies, or I HAVE to have those fries, and that I’ll put off eating healthfully until the next day, though I never do.
First of all, is there any ideas that anyone knows of that will help me stay motivated? Anything that will make me want to quit eating those fries?
Second of all, do you know of any simple workouts that I could easily do in my bedroom that won’t take long? Or possibly some workout plans?
I really want to lose weight in a healthy way, but I’m having a little trouble keeping my eye on the "prize." If anyone knows any pointers or any ideas that will help me out, all help is greatly appreciated. (:
Thank you so much for your help!

Thank you for visiting our Cookie Diet website today. We hope you join the program and start losing weight.
We sound like the same person Heather. I know what you are going through. But something that really helps me is realizing that I can have a cookie or those fries if I want to. You can have a cookie… but you choose not to. It isn’t against the law or a horrible thing to do, but this time you will just say nope. Not right now. Also for the exercises, I love to ‘jump rope’ in my room. I dont actually have a jump rope, so I do circles with my arms and jump. I also do jumping jacks and hoola hoop. Actually, 20 minutes or jump roping can burn 200 calories. Its great. I suggest jumping for 2 minutes straight or as long as you can go, and then rest for an equal amount of time. I would do 10 minute sessions twice a day!
