It is just so hard

10 Reasons I Have A Hard Time Losing Weight

Everyone is always in that mindset that losing weight is necessary to be happy with myself and I will have no problem losing weight. Than they start the process and at the beggining you are in the grove and then you slowly start to fall off the banwagin and here is why.

1. I Love Beer

Beer is probably one of the worst things when you are trying to lose weight but unfortanetly it taste so good and it is cheep if you are on a budget at any given time. Also it is hard to go to a sporting event, concert or just a simple social party and turn down a beer.

2. Motivation

It is so hard to stay motivated when you are trying to lose weight. It is easy at the begining because you are looking for results. But than you go a couple week and you start to see no results than there you go jumping off the bandwagin again.

3. Healthy Food Is Expensive

I do not know how anyone can afford food that is good for you because it is like 100 dollars for just fresh food and that is not even considering everything you need to cook the healthy food.

4. I Love Burgers

I do not know about anyone else but burgers and fries are my biggest weakness. Just the idea of being able to bite into a perfectly cooked burger with ketchup, mustard, and pickles at any given time is the best thing in the world.

5. Going To The Gym

Once I am at the gym I can push myself and get a really good workout in. The issue is actually getting to the gym whether it be in walking distance or driving getting ready and going is the hardest part of my day.

6.No Work Out Buddy

Going to the gym with someone else is so much easier because they make the workout way more barrable than when you are there all by yourself trying to keep yourself distracted from the fact you are lowkey dying and wanting to stop at any moment.

7. The Same Workout

When I go to they gym I stick with the same routine every day; there is no varaition. Maybe once in a while I will find myself on a different cardio machine but it is like once in the blue moon. Finding variation would probably help with my motivation.

8.Chocolate

People say a piece of chocolate a day is fine but what if you eat a bar a day, or a whole bag of something. I have crazy cravings for chocolate maybe it is just me but my sweet tooth is definitly hard to fight.

9. Snacking

I have a really busy schedule so I usually never eat a full healthy meal. I tried meal prepping and I just do not have the energy to do that. So in the fact that I do not eat full meals I snack a lot and it honestly defeats the purpose if I eat healthy meals.

10. Always Tired

Most importantly I am 85% of the time always tired so I always rather nap and relax than go to the gym.

So to those out there trying to lose weight and can not you might have just found some of your problems.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
