Getting Motivated for the Gym?

Original post by wintergirl06

Ok, so my combination lock is rusting, my Bally's card is dusty...how do you girls motivate yourselves to get to the gym? I always seem to be too tired, or have something more important to do....

Re: Getting Motivated for the Gym?

I am going back to the gym starting Monday. My motivation: I bought my dress a size 10 and I was a size 10 when I bought it, but it was tight. Now I am a size 14 (ugh, don't even get me started) so my dres won't fit at all.

I have 7 months to get down 3 sizes to a size 8 (that would make the dress most comfortable on me) and I believe I can do it. I have no choice. I refuse to have my dress taken out damn it!!!

I have a gym at my job so there is not a single reason for me not to go.

You go, girl! I am a 14 on top now (twelve on bottom) and would like to bring that down to 12 and 10....I was thinking about using your strategy, but hoping I can lose the weight before I go dress shopping in December. Good luck! Remember to drink lots of water and take calcium!

I have a gym buddy. We keep eachother motivated.

I have that... and i was between a 14 and a 16 in my dress... and i ordered the 14 so i have to loose a few pounds at least :) I'm hoping to lose about 15 pounds by next august - then i'll be a happy camper

Re: Getting Motivated for the Gym?

the only thing that motivates me is having some kind of event to train for, like a half-marathon or marathon. i am a NOT athletic in the least, but i sort of just chug along slowly. it's a great way to stay in shape.

i HATE the gym.
