Fitness motivation!
Hey y'all! I would love to hear what your motivation is for incorporating exercise into your routine. I've lost 15 lbs through diet alone, and love the idea of getting fit... but I can't seem to motivate myself, as my weight loss is already quite constant.

Feedback would be appreciated!
I have been using mfp as a resource for quite some time (aka stalking all of y'alls posts...), but have just now started consistently logging my foods. I am 5' 3.5'' and weigh roughly 140 lbs, looking to lose roughly 15 lbs. I'm a first-year at a university, so I do quite a bit of walking throughout the day. As I settle…
