How to start my weight loss journey?
I am female 5'5 and I weigh 150lbs. I also have hypothyroidism and POTS. I struggle a lot to keep motivation and trying to find workouts that work for me. I don't want to get bulky, just slim. I don't want to look in the mirror and get sick because of how I look. I want to be happy but I am struggling with getting the motivation to move my body due to depression and pure laziness.
I don't have any gyms I can go to so I have been doing at home work out videos which gave me amazing results before. When I'm in college (it's currently summer break) I was doing good at going to the gym but then my body decided it wasn't a fan. I was literally only using the treadmill for 30 minutes so I could easily work my way into things. During the day while in class I would get extremely lightheaded to the point I couldn't stand and obviously I can't go to the gym in that state. This is what I'm dealing with and I truly don't know what to do. I would also like to point out that I don't over eat in case anyone is thinking that.
What can I do to get myself to actually exercise and do it safely? How can I get myself to stick to a schedule? How can I get myself to enjoy exercising?
One thing I found that I absolutely love is boxing. It's so fun but I know I'm probably not doing it properly and all the cardio you have to do makes me lightheaded by the time I actually get to the boxing part. I would love to learn more about it but again I need to find a way to do it safely without making myself unwell.
