I have been inactive on mfp for a year, and i just got back on.... I've been maintaining my weight fine, but now I am trying to lose my last 10-15 lbs.

I have p90x and insanity.... I even started a group for losing weight.... I'm good at motivating and encouraging others... I know how to eat right... I have some of the best dvds for weight loss......

However... I have this serious sweet tooth that always ruins my diet.... AND.. I dont know why I haven't been able to just start exercising yet...

How do you guys push yourself, or talk yourselves into serious commitment and working out no matter how you feel about it?

    Personally i love working out, so its never been in issue to motivate myself and suff... I do have a knee injury wich i been having for 5yrs now(goin on 6) that prevents me from working out, i do try to do what i can. The only thing that makes it hard is that i have an 18month old and a 31 month old. I just recently commited myself to eating less and healthy, its hard but am doing it because i know i need to. Am at my heviest and i dont like it, i feel bad but i did this to myself and only i can fix it. I also have a bad sweet tooth but if i eat some fruit or a pudding(small cup) or half the pudding it goes away. Dont think i was.much.help... But theres alot you can do for the sweet tooth, maybe if you focus on working out you wont think about it.

    I'm part of your P90x group and just am now doing the first workout today. I put the dvds in, that was the hardest step for me! Then my 3 1/2 year old started doing it with me and wouldn't let me quit! My own little trainer!

    I just finished Insanity and LOVE it! I actually plan on starting P90X soon and would love to join that group. I am new to MFP, so how do I find it??? (Probably a stupid question, but I'm still figuring out all the resources on this site).

    I have to do it in the morning, or I just can't get the motivation to. I finally bet my sister that we would go shopping ONLY if we both reach our goals. This way we hold each other accountable and we have incentive. If we both don't do it the money goes to a charity and we don't get any new clothes! :)
