Anyone feeling unmotivated to work out...

Ahh, this cold weather is keeping me in and preventing me from working out! I'm destined for flabby arms in my dress!

I'm having the same issue but unfortunately the weather has nothing to do with it!!! I just have no desire! I force myself 2 or 3 times a week, but it's torture!

I haven't even been able to get out once! It's like I've given up before I've started. I've never seen any results before with dieting and working out (since I've put on weight). I used to be a competitive swimmer and weighed under 100 for a long time. Now I'm almost 170 and just permanently POed at myself.

hi date twin -- the weather could be perfect and I'd still skip working out. I used to love it. I used to run and hit the gym like 4 times a week

We have less than 9 months left -- what am I waiting for?????

you can work out from home too...i always read how girls say they get home and then tired to go back out to the gym...but when i lost weight i would always do it at home, instead of saying ok ill do it later i would just say ok im doing it right this moment and do it then and there, it was alot easier. Theres exercise on demand which i always recommend to people, and they have such great arm workouts. If you dont have you can buy 3-5 pound weights. I also have a pilates ball and use that and just do alot of the workouts from that. I also have a bunch of dvd workouts. This way on days you dont feel like going to the gym you can still do it

You know how they say that an alcoholic won't change his habits until he hits rock bottom? Well, over Christmas I stepped on a scale for the first time in six months and no joke, I'm TWO FULL SIZES BIGGER now than I was when I bought my dress in March of last year.

So... that was a real wake up call for me. I've been sticking to 1200-1500 calories a day since then and hopefully when it's time for my first fitting they'll actually be able to zip up my dress. Because if I tried it on today, they wouldn't.

I LOVE the Firm! I have a few of their tapes. They are HARD and you really see results quicky. As soon as my hand heals, I'll start with it again, that's a good idea.

Guitar Hero burns calories! Jumping around and playing Guitar Hero is pretty much my entire fitness routine lately.

Does clicking the keyboard on the computer count as a workout?
