in Introduce Yourself
Hello All!

As we all know, we ALL need encouragement and inspiration every now and then. Ever since this song was released, it's been my "weight loss journey song". Wanted to share it with you just in case you need a pick me up. It's cheesy, yes. But I love cheesy in my life. Love and hope to you all!!!!
(By the way, they totally used this on a Biggest Loser episode a couple of seasons ago and stole my idea! haha)

The Climb

I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"

Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking

I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on

'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody's gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

Keep on moving, keep climbing
Keep the faith, baby
It's all about, it's all about the climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa

    Very cool! My weight loss song is "Sexy Back" by Justin Timberlake. I usually listen to metal/hard rock, but that song has such a good beat and the words are perfect to remind me what I want to feel like again! :blushing:

    That is a great motivator. I have a few songs on my mp3 player that I wear during my work out that gets me in a good pace but are sexy in nature that makes me want to dance to them. Music is a huge part of my life and makes me feel better when I am blue and keeps me moving when I dont think I can move anymore. I am glad someone else posted about music. sometimes I feel silly.

    My current body mover songs are .... My Humps from Black Eyed Peas
    Hot in Here
    Giving him something he can feel by En Vogue
    and more lol the first two have GREAT beats

    My Ipod has so many different songs on it because it used to belong to my 17-year-old daughter but for the most part I listen to 80's music which really keeps me going and then I throw a little AC/DC in there for good measure...always have to have my rock and roll keeps me young feeling.

    At first glance I thought you posted the lyrics to a No Doubt song that has the same title. You should DL this song. It is motivational.
    Be careful though, listening to too many songs about climbing will make you want to start climbing on randmo objects. haha

    No Doubt
    "The Climb"

    Step by step I come closer to reaching the top
    Every step must be placed so that I don't fall off
    Looking down to see about how much higher I am
    Another cool wind comes through, brushes my skin
    The harder I pust the tension does grow
    I gather my thoughts the further and further I go
    With some luck I just might keep on climbing
    So better to climb than to face a fall

    So high the climb
    Can't turn back now
    Must keep climbing up to the clouds
    So high the climb
    Can't turn back now
    Must keep climbing up to the clouds

    Pulling myself up by a rope I better my view
    The only thing in sight is what I must do
    As I turned I could see myself falling
    Which in return gave me strength for the climb


    Chorus
    Although many failed
    I must now prevail with no question
    Have no time to stop
    Onward to the top of the mountain
    And I can't turn back now
    It's so very high but I can't turn back now
    If I keep it up, I'm gonna make it
    I'm so very close can't you see


    Chorus
    I'm getting closer...

    My weight loss song is "Ours" by The Bravery...

    It's on the Twilight: Eclipse soundtrack, but I've had a soft spot for The Bravery for a while!

    Thank you everyone for your suggestions! I'll definitely give them all a try. When working out, I like songs with a good beat. Techno is good too. It helps me keep golng. Fast beat, fast feet :) The Climb is not one of my workout songs, its just my inspirational one. I guess I SHOULD workout to it though lol. Best of luck to you all!
