What is your weight loss motivation?

Original post by hedwards0524

I have 9 months till my wedding and am looking to loose about 15 pounds and really tone up. I just joined a new gym last week and got a personal trainer.

The problem is i am so exhausted when I get home from work I have NO motivation to workout and even though I know I have some time..... I'm starting to worry if I'll ever have enough motivation to kick me in the butt and actually go. What do you all do for motivation? I need some ideas!!!

I'm with you ladies...I went hard at the gym in the beginning and now my motivation is pretty much shot. I'll find any excuse not to go! My epics are in Oct and I would love to tone up for them, but I already feel like eh...not gonna happen lol. I can say that I still love going to the Zumba classes at my gym. I know I probably look stupid, but I have fun!

I've been taking Pilates Reformer classes 2-3 times a week since March... when I found my dress in July I had lost two inches in my waist!

I am signed up for WW but I have yet to go... I may switch to doing it online since it is alot cheaper and I don't go to meetings anyways.

What about going with a friend and making a pact?? You guys will force each other to work out and eat healthier. This way you have someone to make you feel guilty if you don't go.

I just force myself to go and make the time to do it. I really have made it a priority and schedule workouts around other things in life lol. Sounds silly, but it works for me.

Its hard but definetly go straight after work. I find that if i make a stop at home i'm most likely staying home..lol. you have plenty of time so i would make small adjustments to your eating habits and i'm sure you won't have a problem.

Im having so much trouble keeping myself motivated, I want to lose a minimum of 10 more pounds before the wedding. I keep losing 2-3 pounds then gaining it back. For the last 5 weeks I have been exercising at least 3 days a week but not seeing much of a change. I just need to keep trying!

I need to lose 50lbs in a year and i have absolutely no motivation. I need Jillian Michael's screaming at me to do it.

I signed up (and paid!) for a 5K which has forced me to start running and getting in shape!

Quick update- I did an evaluation today where my trainer took my meausrements and we talked about food. He was ready to kill me when he heard how and what I ate. When I saw how invested he was in helping me, I felt great! I also took his interval training class tonight. Hes wonderful! He looked out for me the whole time and helped! Now I am excited to train with him!
