I've been trying to lose weight for a while, but I can't seem to get motivated. Do you have any tips?

Try setting realistic goals that are achievable in the short-term. Break down your larger goal into smaller, more manageable chunks and reward yourself when you reach them. Make sure to also set reminders or alarms so you don’t forget about your goals. Additionally, try focusing on one area at a time rather than attempting to change multiple habits all at once. Finally, be kind to yourself if you slip up and give yourself permission to take it easy.
