Rep Power: 0 | | | motivation?! what's that?!  What do you guys do to get motivation?!! You guys all sound so motivated, and when one sounds lacking the others are quick to pump them back up. I admire that when i read the entries. But, I am always lacking motivation to get excercising. I have cut my portions and crappy foods and have lost almost 10 pounds but i have about 3 percent willpower to get out the door to do anything excercise wise. (which is also funny because i used to be super active.) *sigh* Maybe i just need to set up some times in advance... any suggestions??

Rep Power: 24 | | for me, the biggest motivation has been the people in this forum... and then the comments I started recieving from others who began to notice my weightloss... But above all, having people to support you and keep you going on the days you don't even want to get out of bed - much less go running - has been invaluable.
I also think that once you have started and get into a routine, that in itself is a motivator. After going two weeks straight of working out and eating healthy, I felt extremely bad about wanting to pig out one night. I didn't want to let myself down!!!
Oh! and don't discount the high that comes from exercise itself. I used to hate running, but now I love it, and I'm so excited to finally be back in a situation where I can do it every day again =) woot. |  | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
