A few simple solutions can easily help alter this current undesirable lifestyle.
First suggestion, that I have found to be a simple and effective solution, would be to join a gym and find a buddy or a friend to be your workout partner. This will give you longer and more competitive workouts and your partner can also push you to your fullest potential.
Another suggestion, once you have a workout partner, is to make workout routines (with the help a trainer from your gym) which you and your partner closely follow. Think about and write down your goals as workout plans, like, reasons for working out, current weight and diet, and what you expect to get out of working out. As an incentive, reward yourself each time you go to the gym, perhaps by getting a new shirt/dress to show off your new look. Also, make sure to eat a healthy breakfast before each day to supplement your workouts. This should include eggs, orange juice and, perhaps, a protein shake. Protein shakes can also be taken sparingly throughout the day as meal replacements or even as meal supplements depending on your workout goals. At the end of each week, keep track of the progress you have made.
It may be hard at first to start your workout routine, but working out can easily become addicting if you take it seriously and really work to better your image and your health.
