The discussion is that will alone won't get it done. Without a motivation, and one that's so strong it lets nothing stop you, will can still fail you on your journey. What motivates you to get or stay fit?

I'm a father of an almost 6 year old that is not yet one year removed from open heart surgery. My motivation is to be able to bounce her children off my knee like a doting old grandfather. To accomplish that, I've made health, nutrition and fitness an integral part of my life.

So, anyone willing to open up? Share what motivates them? GO!

My cousins told me about it last summer and now I am finally getting started ! my motivation is that one of my sons is graduating next year and I want to look presentable. Also, my knees hurt and I have High blood pressure, I am only 47 and would like to stay around for an extra minute or two God willing !:happy:

    For me to stay motivated, I made it a way of life. I am still on my weight loss plan. I am very careful what I think about food. I have choices and I am determined to make good ones. I have lost 17 lbs in 9 weeks. Good self talk helps. Lots of proteins, very little sugar. I get the sugar from fruits and vegetables. I am likeing the way my clothes fit and I move easier. Everyone is different, so get a plan and stick with it. Just be sensible and healthy and active. Move more. I am back to using this program.
