I need motivation

I have put on 10 pounds since my wedding because I do not exercise. How do you guys motivate yourselves to work out?

Re: I need motivation

This is going to sound terrible! TERRIBLE!! I put on thirty pounds since my wedding. I've always been one to worry about what other people said about me. When I realized how much weight I gained and how horrible I looked, I actually felt bad for my husband. I didn't want his friends or the guys he worked with to say, "How'd you like to go home to that?" He didn't even notice my weight gain, and loves me any way I am. It's my perception of what I think other people say or think that motivates me. I know, I'm pathetic.

The one thing that's motivated me lately is....who knows... Honestly. One day I woke up and I said FREAK it! I'm going to do it for me.
Funny thing...the wedding didn't do it for me...so for that I look like a moooo in my pics. Whatever...

Now it's all for me and my happiness. I hate spending so much time worrying and complaining about my weight.

Here are some other motivating things for me...

1. I put a picture of me in a bikini on the refrigerator (a picture when I was thinner)

2. The idea of TTC at the weight I'm at is out of the question. I'd like to lose another 30 before even thinking about it, but need another 40 all around.

3. I feel GREAT when I finish. I just finished a workout where my HRM says I burned almost 600 calories...Right now I feel like I can concour the world!

4. The feeling inside knowing that after all these years I'm FINALLY doing something about it.Chat Icon

I'm sure there's more, but I hope at least one of those help you out.

Good luck!Chat Icon
