I've not worked out for 2 two weeks. I fell off again...I've been going through this for a year now. Three weeks on two-three weeks off!!!

I must become more consistent. I'm tired of starting over every other month! Would love to have some positive peer pressure. Now one around me cares about working out! Friends please.....

I HATE WAKING UP EARLY TO WORK OUT. but i have to, if i dont i know good and well im not going to do it at night. and then im just cheating myself. i tell myself that you cant get the results i want if i dont put in the work, and thats normally enough guilt to get me out of bed and into my workout room.... i dont have to like it, i just have to do it. but yeah, if i miss one day then i miss two. then i miss a week.

Please add me as a friend, I think the more friends you have, the easier the journey is. I will be as supportive as I can be - as long as when my chocolate craving kicks in, you kick my butt - deal?:flowerforyou:

I went through that for years, then last June I had a scare. I went to the Dr for a routine physical and one of the tests indicated that there may be a blockage in my heart. A few tests later, the results were that I was fat and out of shape and if I didn't start eating better and exercising that it would lead to heart problems. The thought of having my chest cracked open has me; "scared straight".
I've been consistent with eating healthy and exercising since then. It took awhile to find what worked for me and is continually being adjusted. Add me as a friend and I'll give you some friendly reminders to stick to it.

Haha definately me too! Once you have your mind in the right place its easy!
Join a gym, get a personal trainer, find someone to workout with, download your favourtie songs onto your ipod, find a gym class you enjoy!

I also hang cut-outs of celebrities on my mirror in my bedroom so its the first thing i look at in the morning (:
also make sure you record everything that goes into your mouth! drinks and sauces included

I know how hard it is, ive struggled w/it my ENTIRE Life!!! In Dec'10 i got a Wake-UpCall.......In Dec'2010 i went to get a Wisdom Tooth Pulled, and they were unable to do it because they said my Blood Pressure was through the Roof (now i was sick w/a Nasty Head & Chest Cold and was taking OTC Meds so that MAY have had something to do w/it but STILL?!?!)......i had NO Idea, i even had High BP, it scared the heck out of me, im ONLY 38yrs old, at the Rate i was going i could have a Stroke or a Heart Attack within 2yrs, it was a HUGE, HUGE Wake-Up Call for me!!! I want to one Day get Married, be a Mother, see my Nephew & Nieces Graduate from High School/College & get Married, ect, and if i was to continue on the path i was on, it was NOT going to happen!!! So Tues 1/25/2011 my Journey of Dieting (not just to loose Weight but to change my Eating Habits) & Working out began.......

My 2-Biggest Weakness's in Life are my L ♥ VE of Classic Coca~Cola & Fast Food Cheesburgers, im a TRUE FAST FOOD Addict, id Eat Fast Food 3 to 5 Times a Week, 52 Weeks a Year!!!!! First i Weighed in, and then i Signed myself up on here!!!I Started out w/30-Min doing Wii Fit Exercises in the Morning then doing 30-Mins of Intense Walking, while adding a little a bit of Jogging to it Every day, in the late Afternoon, Early Evening. As of now im up to 70 Mins on the Wii and 65 Mins w/the Walking/Jogging, which comes out to just over 3.6-Miles. My Goal is to Particpate in the Santa Run in Dec.'11 sponsored by Opportunity Village EVERY Year!!! I Work-Out, Mon-Sat and then let my Body Rest on Sundays (but i STILL Diet/Water/Vitamins on Sun.)! I no longer keep Soda in the House, but i have my Sister Melissa keep Coke Zero Stocked for me at her House for when i Babysit, thats my Treat when i Babysit, it has ZERO Calories, and since im no longer Drinking Soda 7-Days a Week, its ok as a Treat once or Twice a Week, lol!!!!

For the VERY FIRST TIME EVER in my Life im actually enjoying Wking-Out!!!! I get excited when i reach a New Goal, maybe trying setting Goals for yourself and rewarding yourself in some small way when you reach them! This Sat im going to be in a Local Walk-A-Thon, ive entered the 5k (3-miles), 2months ago in Dec that wasnt even a remote possbility, couldn't have done a 1-mile, let alone 3, PTL, ALL GLory to GOD!!!!

Add me if you would Postive Support & Encouragement, trust me i know how hard it is!!! :flowerforyou:

I suppose the most important thing is to find a type of workout that you actually enjoy.

Me for example, I have enrolled to gyms countless of timess. I go there for one week and then never show up again. I realised I do not enjoy it. So I experimented and I found out I love dancing. I have started dance lessons and I love it so much I am working our for 9-13 hours every week!

So, I guess that if you find this one thing that you really love you will not want to stop! :-)
