Need motivation to keep going!

Hello everyone!

I am somewhat new to this site. I've been hitting the gym and trying to get into shape but I am finding it harder to keep up my workouts and healthy eating habits. I am trying to get more involved with this site and could really use some friends to help me stay motivated and help me push toward my goals!

Thank you for your help!

    Add me as a friend if you like.

    I'm in a similar situation - I'm a senior programmer and sit at my desk all day - I try to play squash 3 times per week, but life gets in the way sometimes!

    I also bought one of those pull-up things that hang in doorways - it's on the way to my bathroom - every time I pass it I do 10 chin-ups - not much, but I'm sure it must help ;-)

    Welcome!

    I certainly find the diet and exercise easier with my friends on MFP. I'm on here everyday and would be happy to give/receive motivation. I'll send a friend request. All the very best :smile:

    feel free to add me also, I could use more motivation too :smile:
  • I agree! Motivation and will power is the hardest part of the game. I promise after you stick to it for a while, it becomes a lifestyle and gets a little easier. But we all can use friends and support, me included! Friend away if you'd like, I'm on everyday :)
