This song is called Stand and it's by Rascal Flatts. This song, for me, is all about getting back up and doing something when you might think you can't or when you fail.
"Stand" by Rascal Flatts
You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless
Like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright
[Chorus:]
Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break
Cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong
Wipe your hands shake it off
Then you Stand, Then you stand
Life's like a novel
With the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon
With only one way down
Take what you're given before its gone
Start holding on, keep holding on
Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend till you break
Cause it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, then you stand
Everytime you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place
Oh
[Repeat Chorus]0 -

Exercise goal for the week--to move every day! A workout or walking or something. This is the hardest thing for me, I'm not sure why because I feel SO good when I do work out.0

Just spent a week in Disney so didn't weigh in last week. Exercise goal - get out of bed for early AM spin class. Current motivation - wedding in 2 weeks - have a great dress that will look and feel better with a few more lbs gone!
Great job Mike!0 -

Wow .. 4 more weeks, I can't believe it. Time has gone by so fast. Great job on the losses, I'm a little disappointed at myself because I thought I was going to lose more than 1 lb but oh well there's always a next time right?0

Motivation: I'm *so* close to fitting back into those jeans. . . . !0

I have been so down in the dumps lately and I'm not sure why. I am reading every single one of your posts to get the motivation.
My exercise goal this week is to get into the gym at least 3 days. I was doing okay and then fell off the wagon. I trying soooo hard to pull myself back up on there!0 -
what keeps me going is knowing that my daughter will only ever know me as the healthy mom.0

"Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will." --Gandhi
This is an exciting week for me. I will graduate from college on Saturday (which is big enough on its own), but I am also probably in the best shape of my life and weigh less than I have since I graduated from high school five years ago. I'm so proud of these accomplishments! I just want to keep going...
It's going to be hard week because family is going to be in town, we will be going out to eat, and I will have limited amounts of time to exercise. So, my goals are to make smart choices and try to fit in some exercise when I can... And to plan for after they leave -- what exercise program will I do now that I've finished the 30DS, etc. My goal is also to enjoy myself and take time to celebrate my accomplishments.0 -
I get so much energy from Usher - More (RedOne Jimmy Joker Remix) !!!! Lyrics are motivating, nice heavy dancebeat.. Love it!!
Watch me as I dance under the spotlight-
Listen to the people screaming out more and more,
'Coz I create the feeling that keep 'em coming back,
Yeah, I create the feeling that keep 'em coming back,
So captivating when I get it on the floor.
Know y'all been patiently waiting, I know you need me, I can feel it,
I'm a beast, I'm an animal, I'm that monster in the mirror,
The headliner, finisher, I'm the closer, winner.
Best when under pressure with second's left I show up.
[CHORUS x2]
If you really want more, scream it out louder,
Get it on the floor, bring out the fire,
And light it up, take it up higher,
Gonna push it to the limit, give it more.
Get up both your hands, I'm in the zone, tight!
Put 'em in the air, if you want more (and) more,
Cos I can't wait to feel it.
I go hard, can't stop,
But if I stop then just know that imma bring it back,
Never quittin' on believin' that!!
Oh and my exercise goal: I just started building up my jogging schedule, so I at least want to jog 5 times this weak!
Keep up the good work y'all!
PS: by the way newmeat.. I saw you posted my weight on the chart in kilograms That's fine by me, but if you wanna post it in lbs --> SW: 170 lbs on 5/5/2011 and GW: 160 lbs0 -
Darn, I missed the weigh in last week, but there was nothing impressive going on my way....lol. I did lose the pound I gained, but hopefully I can lose more this week. Fingers crossed and Good Luck to everyone!!!0

Bump for sunday. I started eating more (I was doing the 1200 cal minimum and not eating my workout cals back) last week and I've lost another 1.8 pounds already this week! I'm so close to my mini goal weight. I'm so glad the challenge this week is to tell what motivates us, because I need to fire myself up to get through this week doing the very best I can!
