How about, doing it for; someone you love?
If I thought there was someone that cared about it... but they really don't.... they don't get where I'm coming from in this regard,
What about someone here? WE care!
Truth. I'd be lost without my cheerleaders and asskickers.
I've been making excuses.... time to woman up..... Thanks, awesome ones...

Don't be ashamed! Most of us need a little push every now and then. Some of us more than others. (Definitely me)2 -

Aw thank you but it's okay to, complain about the hardships of; life no matter how easy or difficult someone's life's! When I was healthy I, had moments like; that also & I don't regret, them because I am, human!1 -

I bought a box today and put them on my son's desk for a lil surprise.
He won't be back from college until May but pop tarts have a shelf life of 1000 years.
I haven't had a poptart in probably 15 to 20 years.0 -

I have an unopened box of Poptarts in my pantry that has been there longer than I can remember.1 -

I walked by poptarts in a popular department store yesterday and thought about picking up a box. The frosted cinnamon ones. I'd go diabetic for those.0 -

Do it for you. I have no one that cares if I work out or not, but myself. I know it's easy for me to say, because I just love lifting and always have, but just do it. You will love the results and being strong. I know you can do it!
Thank you, dear one. I will endeavour to be as strong as the inspirational folks,(such as yourself), are... 1 -

If you train for the wishes of others, it will be short lived; for sure.1 -

This depends on your personality type I think. Some people get more out of influencing others than doing things for themselves. Feeling like I may let someone else down is 100000 times more motivating than thinking I might let myself down. That is F'd up, I realize that....
Yeah, I can see that.
I was thinking of..... here's an example: If a friend wanted me to train for and run a marathon because they thought it would be fun, I wouldn't be too motivated to put in all of the training for their wishes over my own similar desires.2 -

Yup. I'm doing a sponsored walk at the end of June- 64miles. Never done the like before, yet, I WILL do it- because I've committed to it on others behalf... now, doing something that benefits only me? It feels...unworthy... I really don't know why I have so little faith in myself, yet, I have ALWAYS, given everything to those I love. *kitten* up, right?0 -

A couple of bannings coupled with a couple of folks deleting accounts has been a bummer.3 -

Thing is, you can only worry about those things that you can control.
I also post on another site that is an off shoot from a very prominent fitness site. It's impossible to get banned there. What was a bannable offense here, is everyday conversation there.2 -

Nah.... there was a bunch of guys and ladies banned from men's health website, so they started their own site.
I wasn't banned from MH, but their site is a whole lot more fun.0 -
I confess it felt pretty awesome to win an event at my competition today and that my team coach asked me to skate with her out of all the people she could have. It was also special to have my brother there to watch since he was mt first ever skating partner and it was so sweet how proud my partner's parents were and her grand parents...and it feels pretty awesome when people go out of their way to tell you how great you skated and how they liked your program7
