Does anyone else feel less motivated to workout when it's cold and snowy outside? What do you do to motivate yourself and get yourself out of the funk!

Any advice is helpful :)

    I have a bit of a motivating saying posted on my bedroom door, so whenever I look at it, it gets me a bit motivated to get out of bed.... Then I let coffee and music do the rest :-D

    I hate working out on cold and hot days. But with MFP and BBC (Body Boot Camp) I enjoy that I have reall good friend to work out with and don't feel like a third wheel. Plus if I didn't have someone teaching the class that and I paid for it I feel like I have to go. But what it really comes down to I have great friends to work out with and great MFP friends who keep me motivated.
