Compliance with modern standards of beauty is quite difficult, because the figure of the average Russian woman is not suitable for the podium. In pursuit of the ideal figure, girls spend a lot of time in the gym, exhaust themselves with diets. All this requires some effort on oneself, because it is rather difficult to lead a healthy lifestyle, in any case it is more difficult than eating donuts sitting on the couch.

Psychologist's comment
How to motivate yourself to lose weight and not go the distance? We offer you some useful tips to help you tune in to the process of acquiring the desired parameters.
Set a real goal
Starting the path to weight loss will be easier if you set a real, detailed goal. If you just want to lose weight without having an exact idea of what you want to look like, you cannot understand exactly what you need to do.
Set realistic deadlines and goals that you can achieve over a set period of time. A common mistake is that girls either have a vague idea of what they are striving for, or set difficult goals, without reaching them, get frustrated and give up halfway.
Mark your progress
Get a notebook or an online diary where your ultimate goal will be indicated. Weekly weigh up or measure the waist and write the result in a diary - this will help to track the development. You can measure and record several parameters at once:
- weight;
- breast volume;
- Waist;
- hip volume;
- forearm volume.
Get inspired by motivating photos.
In the network now you can find a lot of images of sports, slim girls, which could be an incentive for you in the fight against obesity. Hang beautiful pictures on the fridge: every time you approach it in search of something tasty, you will see perfect figures and think about what purpose you are going.
Buy a new item of the desired size.
For many women, a great incentive for losing weight is a new dress or jeans that are too small for them. Specially acquire such a thing that could encourage you to lose weight successfully. For example, expensive New Year's dress. It will be very offensive if you can not get into it and shine at the festival.
Chat with like-minded people
Join the group on the social network or register on the thematic forum to get the opportunity to discuss pressing issues about losing weight with people who have the same goals as you. Communication with like-minded people necessarily motivates you to achieve excellent results.
Describe the advantages of gaining a slim figure.
How to motivate yourself to lose weight with the help of words? Take a piece of paper and a pen and write in a column all the positive moments that will cause you to lose weight. For example, these could be phrases like:
- men will like me;
- I will look great;
- I will be more confident in myself.
Buy a subscription to a good fitness club 
When you give money for classes in the gym or swimming in the pool, you will be sorry if they are wasted.
It is advisable to purchase a subscription with a certain number of classes, which will be valid for a limited period of time.
Bad photo
Carry a photo in your wallet where you can notice all your flaws. A constant reminder of the imperfections of your figure will always allow you to remember exactly what you want to change.
Encourage your success
With every kilogram you lose, you will feel your goal getting closer. Encourage yourself to achieve intermediate results (for example, for every 3 kilograms) with a small gift: new shoes, a trip to another city — anything but junk food that will not rest your conscience.
Be inspired by weight loss stories.
Read the weight loss stories of people who managed to lose 50-60 kg. This will help not only to be motivated for the result, but also to get important tips in the field of weight loss: people who have traveled this path on their own will be able to teach you a lot.
In the end, I want to add: motivation is the most important thing in the process of losing weight. It is she who gives us the strength and energy to achieve our goals. Do not be discouraged and do not give up if there is no change for a while: it is better to try to change something in the usual way that will help to get the ball rolling.
In every case there are periods of stagnation. The main thing is to go through them without disruption, and if you fall through, then start anew with new forces, believing that you will be able to win in the fight against extra pounds. Everything will work out if you regularly motivate yourself.
Good luck in losing weight!
