Need a fitness buddy

sherry_33

I'm having trouble getting motivated. I have bought a fitness tracker I've been logging my intake for a month. I just can't get going with exercise and I know if I do my weight will come off.
Help!

Is there any exercise you like doing? It is summer time, this is the day of the pool. Maybe a fun class with a friend could be good.

Exercising is a struggle for me too!

Around here in the summer there are all sorts of outdoor boot camps. Super fun way to exercise with the added bonus of meeting people with similar goals. Do you have anything like that in your area? Sometimes the trick is to join something that you'll feel committed to keep going to

Exercise is easy. It's good that's the enemy! Download a whole bunch of new music and walk/run to it. Music is key!!

Hi SherryBp33;
I too am looking for an exercise buddy,.I don't mind becoming your buddy..here's what I am up to, I have a gym trainer to help with motivation and accountability, Yes good music downloads are the key and keeping tabs on what I eat. I am wanting to loose 20 pounds by Dec which happens to be my birthday month.

Thank you all for the comments. I continue to work toward my waking goals with my fit bit.
I used to walk a lot but yes it's finding good music and just getting out there
We have programs in the area. Not an excuse but my job has me working long hours then I'm home with evening routine with my kids.
Crjohnson I have added your contact email to my contacts and will definitely contact you. Add me as a friend on here ?

Really depends on if you are willing to spend some cash. Signing up for a pool membership would be fun! Or maybe you have a local ymca or gym with fitness classes? Or you can get some 2-5 lbs weights and do various stregth and cardio exercises at home, or take a walk around the neighborhood. Got a dog? Or maybe a neighbors dog that would love to join you on a walk?

We're close to the same age (I'm a couple years older)! We may be at different points in our journey, but I love working out. I also love naps! I'll be your exercise buddy too, just let me know!
