NO MOTIVATION

I don't know what my problem is but I have absolutely no motivation to go to the gym. I was doing great for a while and when I hurt my neck last month I haven't been back since. I have since recovered and I know I have to get in shape for not only my own wedding but FH's cousins wedding in May. we are both in it. Anyone else have as little motivation as I do???? HELP!!

Re: NO MOTIVATION

GO TO THE GYM.....NOW

1. You're paying for it

2. You want to look hot at the OTHER wedding

3. You want to knock FH's socks off

4. You can rub it in my face since I am not allowed to workout for 2 more weeks

GO GO GO

Try going to classes at the gym for motivation or get a workout buddy. The key to staying motivated and consistently working out it changing it up all the time....meaning do the bike one day, then the treadmill, and so on. Also weight training like 2 times a week is a great way to tone and build muscle - which increases your metobolism.

My sister joined this place called the Personal Training Institute - which are located all over and she lost about 30 pds. in 3-4 months by following their progrom. It is expensive but she says it was worth it since she isn't the type to go to the gym on her own. Hope this helps! You can do it:)

Re: NO MOTIVATION

I did not have much motivation before my wedding and honestly, I regret not going to the gym. Not that I looked horrible for the wedding or in the resulting photographs, but I could have used the extra inches not being there, could have used the extra energy the endorphins would have produced, and I would have felt better about myself. I'm on a kick now b/c I've gained weight since the wedding and feel gross, but I wish I had started way back when I had wanted to before the wedding.

I know that's not very uplifting, but just an honest answer.

Re: NO MOTIVATION

I was afraid that the same thing was going to happen to me becuase I hurt my shoulder and wasnt allowed to work out for a few weeks.

I pay for a trainer- so I get my *** there because it is costing me a fortune... that and I look at the wedding budget everyday and see how much $ we're spending and think- I will NOT be unhappy with how I look on this one day!!! :)

Re: NO MOTIVATION

Hi date twin!!! I'm sorry to hear your not motivated but maybe you should go with a friend or FH. I know im super lazy to go to the gym but FH pushes me to go and I feel better about it in the end.

There is always a trainer. Now they really push you to go that extra mile
