how do you motivate yourself to diet/exercise?

Somehow - post wedding I have gained wieight. Not only did I gain back what I had lost, but about another 6 lbs that I have never had before. This is very depressing for me. DH gained some weight too -- and this has motivated him. For me, it's depressing. I need a kick in the a**. How do you guys motivate yourself?? Or re-motivate if you've fallen off the wagon?

Knowing that I'll feel awesome when I'm done working out - strong and tight!

Success stories also motivate me. I love The Biggest Loser! I don't need to lose weight, but I love hearing about people getting themselves into shape. It's inspiring.

Having a child also helps to motivate me - I want to be an example for him, have him grow up knowing good nutrition habits and being fit - playing outside instead of playing video games all day. And I want to also live a long, healthy life so I can be there for him for many many years.

Seeing the results! I've only lost about 5 pounds (would love to lose another 3-5 pounds!) but my clothes fit so much better and I feel great!

WE quit the gym and spent the money on an elliptical for our house. Now I have no excuse because its in th enext room. I used to work out maybe 3 days a week at the gym bc it was so hard to get there with work, etc. Now I work out 5-6 days a week and I feel better!!

I know how good it feels when I am finished. And how great I will feel when I get to my ideal body!
