Need help staying motivated

Last week was great...I ate well and exercised a lot.

This week I am completely unmotivated for some reason. While I ate well, I have not exercised. Does anyone feel like giving me a pep talk?

Start logging!!! I was keeping a paper calendar of what I did and how far I went and now, I am logging online and it's great to see the little person on my calendar. What I mean is that I log my info on mapmywalk.com and then I see the calendar for the month and it's great to see that I did something 11 out of 14 days this month. Seeing the action has helped me.

I have 2 christenings to go to and 2 bday parties to attend so that is keeping me motivated

I think it might help to commit to a smaller goal each week. It's GREAT that you are eating well and it's okay if the exercise part of it is not where you'd like it to be (yet).

Instead of going balls to the wall what about just committing to one or two days of exercise per week?

The hardest part is getting started and making it all a part of your life. It will be MUCH easier if you just make small changes rather than a whole bunch at once.

GOOD LUCK!!!
