Many people say when it comes to weight loss, "I'll start when I have time." But Dr. Eric Berg points out that procrastination and laziness are often not character flaws, but rather the body's reaction to the wrong plan. When weight loss methods leave you hungry and exhausted, with minimal results, anyone will lose motivation. The real problem isn't willpower, but whether you're using the right methods.

The longer you diet, the slower your metabolism becomes.
Dr. Berger points out that the "low-calorie, high-carbohydrate" diet adopted by most people is actually fighting against the body's survival instinct. When you are starving for a long time and suppress your cravings, your body will automatically slow down its metabolism and retain fat as an energy reserve. The result is: you eat less and move more, but your weight remains stagnant.
He emphasized, "The purpose of fat is to allow you to survive without eating. If the body senses danger, it naturally won't let go." This is why many people find it harder to lose weight the more they diet.
Get healthy first, then you can lose weight.
Dr. Berg proposed a key principle : it's not that you're healthy because you're thin, but rather that you're thin because you're healthy.
If the body is still in a state of insulin resistance and metabolic disorder, even dieting and exercise will not be effective at burning fat. As health gradually recovers, real changes will occur naturally:
- The craving for sweets disappeared
- Decreased appetite, no longer easily hungry
- Stable energy and balanced emotions
These phenomena indicate that the body has relearned to use fat as an energy source instead of relying on external sugars.
Not having enough time is an illusion.
Dr. Berg points out: "We often think we don't have time to exercise or prepare healthy meals, but we're actually just spending our time on secondary things."
He cited Parkinson's Law to illustrate that work will automatically extend to fill available time. If you don't plan ahead, chores will take up your entire day.
He recommends prioritizing health behaviors in your life :
- Schedule the exercise first, then arrange other things.
- Treat food preparation as a daily necessity, rather than something you can "do when you have time."
- There's no need to strive for perfection, just keep taking action.
In other words, it's not about "waiting until you have time to start," but rather "starting now, and the time will come naturally."
Find your own rhythm and get your body to cooperate.
Many people experience pain from exercise because they are doing the type that is not suitable for them. Dr. Berger suggests:
- Find an activity that you enjoy , whether it's dancing, stretching, or weight training.
- Understand your body's response and adjust the intensity accordingly, rather than blindly pushing the limits.
- Understand that diet determines 85% of results , while exercise is only an auxiliary factor.
Discipline and willpower will only arise naturally when the method is correct and the body is willing to cooperate.

Take action, instead of waiting for the perfect moment.
Dr. Berg concludes: "Procrastination is just your body telling you that your current plan won't work." True self-discipline is not about forcing yourself, but about finding a healthy way of life that you 're willing to continue .
When you start to feel your energy levels improve and your appetite stabilizes, fat loss will naturally follow. Instead of waiting for the perfect "star alignment" moment, take the first step today.
