in Getting Started
I just started really focusing on myself last week. I've had quite a year,and it's a lot more than I want to give details about, but just last week I decided I was done doing and eating anything and wanted to focus on myself.

Now, a week in, I'm down 6 lbs (I'm sure a lot of water weight) but the best inspiration for me is how is effecred my boyfriend.

He decided to start running on his own, because I have, and is down 14 lbs in 2 weeks!

Helping him and myself is why I keep going.


What inspires you guys? Be it yourself, someone else, or a big event? Share! I want to know what makes everyone tick!

    I love exercising and how it makes me feel. At the end of the day, that is all the inspiration I need. :)

    Every time I lose a pound or an inch and now my prize when I reach goal my weight will be white water rafting, that is still a ways away but something to look forward to. I was also able to go rides with my kids this year when I took them to Santa's Village, first time in 11 yrs I was able to fit on the rides.

    You will love it, I went a couple months ago. What an adrenaline rush! Right now what inspires me is the hiking group I belong to. We go on wonderful adventures and I want to lose weight and get fitter so I can manage the more strenuous hikes. Also the closet full of size 10 clothes I used to get into 75 pounds ago!

    The main thing that motivates me is seeing all my friends pictures on FB of them rock climbing or running marathons.....I would love to be able to do that! I'm a healthy weight, but so unfit.

    I want to be fit enough to try any sport I like without effort and bad experience. I want to try pole dance, ballet, running again with fitter body.

    I am shallow, so just being thin and get my clothes fitting nicely are enough motivation, also just playing soccer weekly is motivation for me.
