Need Motivation...

SO ever since Christmas rolled around, I have been going to the gym but not as must as in the past. I haven't gained any weight and really don't eat like a pig (despite the fact that I ate 350 calories worth of chocolate covered almonds today ) Anyways, I keep saying everynight before I go to bed that tomorrow morning I am going to the gym. I even set my alarm clock for 5:30 AM so I can go before work. Does it happen? No. I used to be so good and work out every other day 3-4 times a week. Please help me and get me motivated! I need it BAD!

I am not a fan of the video stuff. It'll just sit on my shelf and collect dust. Is it really that good?

It is def good, im usually not a fan of workout dvds, but everyone on here talked about it so much i figured i'd check it out, and i love it

Try going at night instead. I just can't work out that early in the morning, even on the weekends. If I go after work, I go any day I dont' have something else like class or a really important errand. I get to the gym probably 4-5 days a week.

We must motivate eachother. Is there a workout thread? I think I started one so long ago but is there a new one?

there prob is one, i know there was one last week or the week before for the 30 day shred.

i heard part of the 30 day shred is on you tube, or the level 1, is, so check it out on there, this way you can see if you like it, or would do it!

Re: Need Motivation...

Can you exercise at night? I can't do mornings myself. Even if I set the alarm I will always sleep thru it. So I have adjusted my schedule so I work out at night.

Re: Need Motivation...

I'm the same way. Before I got engaged, I'd go to the gym almost every morning before work. Now, I set my alart for 5:40am, but rarely make it out of bed. I've gone for 4-6 days/week at the gym to like 2.

Re: Need Motivation...

Re: Need Motivation...

I hate doing classes and HATE exercising at night BUT I am going to work out tonight after work. Finally doing this! I am making a thread tonight to mark all of our progress!

Re: Need Motivation...

I did the 30 day shred, level 1, for the first time on Saturday, today is the first day I can walk normal.
I was hurting!!! I'm going to try it again tonight and make sure I STRETCH more!!!

Re: Need Motivation...

Ugh! I need motivation as well! I ordered the shred... and still don't have it. Supposidly it was shipped and I assume a stupid neighbor stole it bc I never got it. SO now I'm waiting for it to come again. I do try to walk 2.5 miles a day and I try to do WW. At first I was sooo strict and good... and now I'm jsut not! And I need to be!

It seems like most of us are in the same boat! We will all just have to motivate eachother.

Here's my attempt: YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!! YOU GET UP AND GO TO THAT GYM EVERY MORNING OR.... well I don't want to be mean... so OR SOMETHING VERY BAD WILL HAPPEN!!!!!!

I've been thinking about printing pics of very overweight almost naked people and posting them on my fridge for some additional motivation. Skinny people might just annoy me and then I might just eat whatever anyway.
