Fat or Fiction?

LelaYang

I'm having a hard time getting back into the zone! Last summer I was so motivated, but this summer is just different. It may have something to do with the fact that I have my first full time job and I have a 1 hour commute to AND from work...or maybe I'm just lazy. I don't know. I'm trying to workout everyday...and I do sometimes...but I lose my fire fast! Sometimes I lie to myself saying things like "No, I didn't eat too bad today...I can just take a rest day." (Fiction) When in reality I counted yesterday's 1 mile walk with my mom as "working out". Yes, it's better than nothing...but to get stronger, faster, more toned, etc...walking 1 mile a day isn't going to cut it for me. I've gained 9lbs since January and I'm not as confident in my clothes anymore. (Fat) I feel like a big blob and somehow I'm supposed to run 26.2 miles on Sept. 23, 2012. I know I still have time to turn this all around, but I need advice...help...tips...anything!

What gets you going and how do you stay focused on your goal!?
