Welcome to WEEK 2! I hope that you enjoyed your rest day (if Sunday was yours) and are ready for another week of your challenge!!!! Remember to enter you weight on the spreadsheet. Several of you have already done so. Let's continue to commit to the challenge by 1) reporting to the group & posting daily, 2) logging food & exercise, 3) drinking water (as close to half you weight as possible:drinker: )

This week can be tricky because sometimes excuses and negativity might creep in. The excitement of a new challenge is gone, so let's get down to business! :love:

This week, let's have a daily photo challenge! I will give you something to post a photo of from today until Friday. If you post all 5 photos, you will get entered to win a prize!!!!

If you don't know how to post it in the thread, you may change your profile picture and just write a notification in the thread.

TODAY'S PHOTO - Post a photo of something that motivates you! Be creative and let's have fun with this!!!!

    I am motivated by wanting to get pregnant! Hubby and I have been trying for four years, 2014 makes five if we make it to December! Every year I say "this year seems like a good year", but this year I really think it. Instead of focusing on getting pregnant, I've decided to focus on getting healthy and hoping my body will take care of the rest :)

    Hopefully my pic inserts, had to google a tutorial!

    Great job!!! What a wonderful way to stay focused on what's important! You will be so fit and healthy when it's time for your baby! It will also be easier to pass good habits along to your child when you have already made them a habit. I am having to reprogram my family, including my 15 year old, to eat properly and exercise regularly. It is very hard because I wasn't doing this when my daughter was young. We tried for a while also. WTG on the photo!!:flowerforyou:

    Here is one easy way:
    1. Go to www.tinypic.com
    2. Click on the "image" tab
    3. Enter an image topic in the search area (upper right), and click on a picture ; or upload your own on the "upload" tab
    4. Copy and paste the image code for forums into your discussion (bottom left; see pic below)
    5. Make lower case on BOTH ends of the code10f2v46.png

    My son, he is severely autistic. I want to stay as healthy as possible so I can take care of him as long as I can.

    My motivation is standing right next to me! Also, a look at this picture of myself is quite motivating. This is about 2 1/2 years ago, and we were both leading a healthier lifestyle. We would spend weekends participating in group exercise or walk/runs (we would walk) I was more active, and encouraging my daughter to be as well. I am motivated to get back there and be a good example before my girl!!!
