Tomorrow I start my exercise routine again and eating better.

Any tips to get me motivated?

Re: Tomorrow I start my exercise routine again and eating better.

just remember...the hardest part is getting started the first day...

remember how good it feels to be finished!!

baby steps...a little bit is better than nothing

try not to use food as a reward...
I use clothes and shoes...I alternate what I can buy at every 5 pound mark!!

I also started a thread here...now I feel like I have to come back and tell everyone I am still keeping up

good luck

So true. You have to give us an update on how you do. I always feel so good after I excercise. As yabbo said, it is just trying to start. I always buy myself something when I start to feel good. Heck I even do it when I am depressed. There are a great bunch of women here to keep you motivated!!! Good Luck!

I gained several pounds since the wedding. I used to work out several days a week and then I just stopped.The weight jumps on quickly.
Today I start my routine and get back on track!

I was good. I did my workout but I had bologna and cheese on whole wheat for lunch.
Is that bad?

You can do it!! The wheat bread is good, the baloney is Ok...not great! but the cheese is the kicker. An idea is maybe a turkey, tomato and mustard on whole wheat. I think it sounds good, low points too!
