    I started going there because I hated the way I looked. Now I go because I am liking the way I look and I want more.

    Secret formula...?

    You just keep going until it becomes part of your routine, lol. Until that happens... look into finding workout partners (with similar goals and dedication), take classes, read up on exercises and plans, and chat with friends and MFP members about your progress.

    Yep. Commit to going even when you really don't feel like going. Just do it. You will eventually make it a habit (I think it takes 3 weeks to cement a habit) and you will see the pounds drop!
