even a little bit of objective self analysis

Often stories come into the Ukmedix newsroom which show that for some people the motivation for losing weight suddenly appears like an Eureka moment. It could have been that they were rejected by somebody they liked, refused a job or that they just had enough of being treated like a second class citizen which spurred them on and made them pledge to themselves that they would never be fat again.

Other inspirational moments for losing weight can be the stern diagnosis of a doctor warning of imminent disease or death, a realization that obesity is ruining their lives or even a little bit of objective self analysis which allows you to see things as they are.

Will Nevin once weighed 350lbs and less than a year later he now weighs less than 50 percent at 175lb. He says that he is not quite sure exactly why he lost weight but a combination of heart attack symptoms, a fear that he could become seriously ill and a realization that at the age of 24 he was throwing away his life by being so obese made him walk to his local gym and walk 3 miles on a treadmill; the first bit of exercise he had done for years. 

Not content with exercise alone he changed his eating habits to include fruits and vegetables and just used his common sense with portion size. Will said that he just decided to get on with it and despite plenty of hardship on the way, being able to run up the stairs and enjoy life as he started to lose weight was a great motivation.

He also said that hanging out with slim people in the gym made him conscious of how overweight he was and this made him more determined to end up looking like them.

Losing weight is always possible and the first steps are normally the hardest.  One of the first and most important steps to take is an admission to yourself that you have a weight problem which is caused by eating too much and that you need to do something about it.
