My biggest motivation has been writing down WHY I started, and referring back to that whenever it gets tough. I absolutely love what I do for workouts, and that is TREMENDOUS help. I have a whole cheerleading support section of friends and family that helps along the way! I try new workouts, and if I hate it? I just move right along. I am doing this to be healthy, fit, & HAPPY! And I am not happy doing yoga, so I don't make myself do it. I got really obsessive about researching fitness pictures and quotes and put them up all over the place.
And, I remember, that yes, it is lovely to be cheered on by people. But, at the end of the day it comes down to wanting it. And I want this, then I work for it. Pure and simple.0 -

Working out absolutely makes me happy! And you just really have to do what you love! I took up running. And then I got really obsessed with running music finds. So, there are plenty of times when I'm mouthing the words of songs as I am running along. I told a friend that, for me, running gives me the same sensation as driving with the my windows rolled down and the music turned up. It is just a freedom I can't recreate!0 -

Thanks! I'm all about the reality that if I can do it, ANYONE can!0
