The cycle starts with eating a poor diet, full of fats, carbs and processed foods. These are the kinds of foods that make you feel tired and rob you of your energy. Then, because you don't have the energy you don't feel like exercising. So the cycle leaves you will no willpower and no desire to workout. This will leave you feeling misserable and hopeless.
There is hope because it does not have to be this way. You can make the change. If you really want to lose the weight you need to first stop this cycle and find the willpower to make it happen.
