Just wondering what everyone's motivation is...I know for me it started out that I wanted to run with my brother and now it is that I just want to feel better and be able to keep up with my 2 year old.

What is your motivation???

    I've got 3 fitness goals right now:

    1) To participate in a mud run/obstacle course
    2) To do a "3-peaks" challenge (I climbed Snowden with some friends earlier this year and loved the feeling of "**** yeah I just climbed a mountain!")
    3) Become a certified yoga instructor

    I just wanted to fit into clothes "my size" and feel better in my own body. I'm still lazy, but less lazy :D

    The best thing about this one is you have more confidence than that guy... and I bet he has a beer gut and balding :)

    To avoid having a heart attack and people going "duh, look at her." Semi joking but don't want to be that cliche.

    I have 5 kids. 3 teens,a preteen and a toddler. I got sick of sitting on the sidelines or making up excuses not to join them in activities because I was too embarrassed and had no energy. My whole family is benefiting from my new healthy habits and that keeps me going.

    I put on 45 lbs in under 4 years while being in a very unhealthy relationship and now that I've dusted off my ex I've realized that I was eating all the time because I was so unhappy....now single and more happy than I could've imagined, it's time to change all the unhealthy habits I've picked up. I'm doing it for me :)
