Hi

I have been struggling with weight since my teen years. I struggle to be consistent with the exercise. I lack motivation to wake up and exercise.

I want to lose about 10kg - 20kg by the end of this year. Is it possible for me to lose weight without exercise?

Hi

The short answer is yes you can lose weight without exercise. They say weight loss is 80% nutrition and 20% exercise.

If you can choose what you eat, reduce the consumption of alcohol, sugar and the amount of food you consume on a daily basis. You may start to see a difference in your weight.

However you you want to see long lasting drastic changes, you may need to move more. 10k steps a day will help accelerate the weight loss.

Goodluck
